For 30 years the Grammy-winning #music #artist’s music has cast an unflinching gaze on love, race, sexuality & religion. Her new album out in August, No More Water: The Gospel of James Baldwin, zooms out to focus on the love of humanity as inspired by the writer & civil rights activist.
Strange Fruit - #BillieHoliday (1939)
https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=Web007rzSOI
This song was a profound & powerful depiction of Billie Holiday’s horror over a #lynching. It was #BannedInTheUSA radio for its heavy, morbid content upon its release in 1939. As dark as the lyrics were, this was a song that the public truly needed to hear at the time. In 1965, Billie Holiday’s #music was #censored again when #ABCradio refused to play “Love for Sale” as the #song’s #lyrics were about #prostitution.
