I'm not sure how someone won't know what it means. The statement isn't cryptic or implicit or a metaphor. The term "strange fruit," however, is all of those things.
Doesn't matter what song he sampled it's a whole different song and it's his own meaning. That doesn't take away any meaning of the song if anything more people have become aware of the song because Kanye used the sample.

@@miloshk11 do you know that this world is ran by a technocratic secret society that performs rituals and sacrifices? do you realize that fame and true fortune in this world comes at a price of blood? trust this is not a game
People I think the point of the sample is too get you too do your history... after this song I finally learned about the original and then seen the video. Kayne is no dummy...
people need to realize the point of the sample, he is comparing the threat of a mistress having a child as a way to get money to the lynchings in the Jim Crow era... even though I don't really agree with the logic, that's the reason.
@@olistevanovic1383 ehh.. he is underrated in terms of his music. he makes some of the best music ever. a lot of his image and popularity comes from his political beliefs and him being crazy lol. not saying ppl don't know him for his music, but sometimes ppl don't recognize how good it is.
@@hyperbeam7498 dude read his other comment. he is saying in terms of music which i agree with. people only look at the negative shit kanye has done and not focusing enough on his actual music.

@@choppaszn9582 nah heard a friend playing this song and I asked him what it was called and I realized that it was a Kanye song so I gave it another listen when I was by my self cause I didn’t hear half the shit that was being said in the song when I was with my friend cause we were both fried and it took me listening by myself to get the true meaning of the song which gave me goosebumps which then I replied on this vid saying “shit give me goosebumps” referring to the real meaning behind the song and not necessarily the song it self .

No the autotune is meant to portray the ugliness of the situation here, which is the media, and how his words are seen to many people. Ugly. The autotune distorts the sound of his voice, as the media does to his words.
davis fugate my enjoyment of music IS because of the meaning. I prefer the intelligent artistic elements and concepts. Music is an art form, and I enjoy it as such. Obviously, by your response, I can tell you don't have the musical intelligence to truly enjoy music like this.
The sample was played in the first story of Tales from the hood. I watched it recently and noticed the words in the background. I was like I know this from some where.
Bro yxngchris and kanye west is not the same at all🤦🏿♀️ kanye used it in a meaningful way… the first thing yxngchris said after using this sample is “b* i be killing these beats” WTF?? look up “strange fruit”
@@choppaszn9582 Kanye used the parallels of the sample to talk about societal issues, the whole album literally covers slavery, racism and how fame isn’t everything lol
@@choppaszn9582 he paralleled it with the “present day white man” that he felt strangles black people with drugs, money and poverty. So there is some meaning
I love the song, mainly the beat and the historical song in the back ground....however if u really listen to it , kayne is comparing the struggle of the black people to a chick who could have been his chick yet failed and became a fame/money hungry bitch...idk how historical or how he is "honoring" the originality of the original song....I mean I still like it , but u have to be woke at all times
The beat was Highly inspired by CMurders “Down 4 My Niggas” which is why Ye said “Take it back to the Nolia” and Says the same thing as CMurder after that
He repurposed it for the modern day. That’s part of the beauty of sampling. Instead of being lynched this is about how black people are being destroyed from the inside out now. Materialism, welfare, child support, abortion, no family structure, etc.
Hardest beat Kanye ever made. The beat drop is absolutely godly
Beat/production was heavily inspired by
“Down 4 My Niggas” by CMurda & Snoop & Magic
@@paulvasquez7897 nice to see him referencing the song in his lyrics
So cbat guy can make good music
This beat for him was made by one of European beatmakers
So true
Kanye is a genius. Hate him all you want. There will never be another artist like him.
Always something and someone better to and has yet to come… but I can’t wait 😂

@@darththomas7791 yea there is... If not wouldn't be no comparisons smh... I don't think u know art sir
Can’t believe I’m just hearing this song. I can hear the sadness in the song even through this sick beat.
I’m reading a book called Strange Fruit Since 1973 by Marlene Downing and it made me think of this song. Wow history is amazing
That hook hits different now
Ok
Why
Facts! Real ppl know wat u talkn bout they see thru the lines, study the person, hear the lyrics, and know the background
Facts
The intro hits more different now 😭
dat beat drop tho
fr
i love this shit. i am not an auto tune fan but they used it RIGHT. Mike Dean is a beast also for the mix on yeezus.
yea
Real deep meaning behind this song. Hanging slaves from trees.

No matter what you think of Kanye, it can't be denied that this is one of the greatest songs ever.
One of the best songs of the decade
it feels so weird listening after learning about the real meaning of the sample
same, especially the strange fruit line
Same, especially learning the HISTORY of the song.
whats the real meaning?
@@vividist strange fruit (black people) hanging from the poplar tree (lynchings)
She literally says “black bodies swinging in the summer breeze” in this song. It ain’t that deep. Or weird.
Most underrated Kanye song ever.
Kanye is actually sampling off an old song called strange fruit where it talks about lynching in the south. some of the words are in this song.
ok
@@k.2715 ok

I will forever bump Kanye West! He can do no wrong ♥️
Whatever he likes

One of my favorite beat drops ever.
Kanye West is the greatest artist of all time. Layering Nina Simone and C Murder wow
first time hearing the song... interesting message, aggressive drop.
me rn
@@HD-yd5ye me rn
suce a great song , its really good to be alive and listen to that kind of songs that Kanye make , now its the real Kanye West we are listening to
Good 👍
most people probably just think its a good song and dont even know what "black bodies, hanging from the poplar trees" is from or what it means...
this is played at my highschool parties lmao... better than most of the ignorant shit that gets played though.
I'm not sure how someone won't know what it means. The statement isn't cryptic or implicit or a metaphor.
The term "strange fruit," however, is all of those things.
Well i did
Exactly
I listen to it at football
"Yo kids gonna sing strange fruit"- Billie holiday......kanye the goat for this one

Don't let this song distract you from the fact one of the producers on this song made cbat
Love this song :-) this hook is amazing.
3:14 i love this entire verse
He snapped on that. But imagine if he'd have put this out after Kim. He would have burned the studio down.
the verse at 2:28 is fucking insane to me
It's anger. Anger over lynching. Anger over a failed relationship.
Pure unadulterated anger.
greatest ever

yea
yea

Did anyone else hear kanye say 'impregnanated' instead of impregnated
yes! to keep the meter
Yes keep to the kitchen
I'm assuming you don't much listen to hip hop. Well basically its all based on how good you are with word play. This of course is all rhetoricacal
