I noticed a lot of people don’t really know about her.. YALL BETTER GET ON BOARD!!! She’s phenomenal😫
I loved her since rise up!
they all should have seen the movie and gotten FAMILIAR!!!!!!!! shes been working before thatt but billie holiday really brought her into the light. the real ones know, sis!
FACTS!!!!
@Spongebob Squarepants maya What's so funny about African American women?
I've never heard of her until I saw the movie.. she played that...
She should’ve won the Oscar. She was fantastic in that movie!
she was robbed just like Diana Ross was robbed from winning that Oscar 30 yrs ago for lady sings the blues.
She did when an award tho.. which award was tht?
@@j.l3943 it was the Golden globe. The one before the Oscar.
@@ezekel.4656 oooh thanks yes I remember watching the highlights of tht 😃
Damn right!
Andra bringing us back to those true soul vibes.
Right!! So agreed
She sound like Erika badu
She was R-O-B-B-E-D of the Oscar
Whites honor other whites. Blacks don't need to be a part of that. Black award shows are better and more relatable anyways.
She and Chadwick
She won golden globes atleast
That is so iconic to hear strange fruit performed on a national tv show for everyone to hear
Especially when they made billie holiday go through hell
Nan I'm PISSED IT TOOK SO LONG but maybe it was ment for this young queen but the song ain't beautiful it's horrible abd what's more horrible she sacrifices her career too put out a message that's just being RECOGNIZED!!!
Billie Holiday Said It, She Said " You're Grandchildren Are Gonna Be Listening To Strange Fruit !!!" And She Wasn't Lying !!! LOLOLOL Now Ain't That Nothing !!!🤔
Yes she did! ✊
Billie spoke the truth!!!!!
She's like a mix between Rihanna and Erykah Badu! I love it!!!
Yes
Good call i agree
Yes
I see that.
🥰
I watched the movie, so I agree with everyone, she wore Billie Holiday like a glove. Her acting was top notch. And I was rooting for her to win that Oscar. But I feel like she has cemented herself in the industry, we can expect more acting roles from her because she is super talented.
This BET performance was so soulful 😍😍
Everything was perfect about this performance..her voice, her outfit, stage presence..everything.. one of the VERY few classy performances at BET this year..
100000% spot on
Andra continues to amaze. She looked real good last night.
In her bony elegance phase.
Everytime she performs Strange Fruit, it's a different version. Phenomenal
Yall gotta check out The United States vs Billie Holiday, what a great performance and eye opening!
Yea that was tough.
That movie is soooo good
I did I was in it
Where is the film streaming? I didn't see it in the theater. Amazon Prime? Netflix? HBO? Thanks.

She looks like she could be Eartha Kitt’s daughter ✨
when i was watching her interview with Oprah, i was convinced she was Eartha Kitt's daughter!!!!!!!!!!
@@RobyynFenty I wonder if she gets asked if she’s related to her
kitt shapiro.
Loved her! She blew me away with that jazzy, raspy tone
Yaaaas gurl, great way to let billie holiday live on!!!!!!!! Epic, r.i.p. Billie holiday!!!!!!!!!
this song tugs on my heartstrings. Andra and the dancers did wonderfully.
Great Job Andra representing the Queen of Jazz Miss Billie Holiday🌹💕
This woman is amazing. The movie was long over due. She really played that part. 🤩🤩🤩
Man, that trumpet and her vocals really got me emotional 😩😥
Right. I've been trying to find his name and can't. He did a great job.
Nah this impact of strange fruit being performed now is astounding..
Her essence and face structure gives me women in the 80’s vibes, it’s like she’s from the same cloth as Sade, Lisa bonet or Janet Jackson
She gives me Phyillis Hyman and Lisa Fisher vibes. so much emotion through music without the screaming BS that we have programmed to hear. Andra Day is a breath of fresh air. Sadly the only person that had this type of persona is no longer here was Aaliyah.
@@timafiggy just searched both names you referenced, those were on point 👊
She gives me a younger Eartha Kitt look
@@v7m.749 Yup deffo looks more like Eartha than the woman she played in this movie
Are you on crack?
She bout to kill this 👏🏾 I already know 🖤
Yes, she killed it! 👏🖤
Come on Andra Day ❤️🔥❤️🔥❤️🔥
I'm glad this song is getting played Rest in Heaven Billie Holiday ♥ 🙏 💜
Simply the Best soul, Love her
I need her on a J Cole or Kendrick song ASAP❤️
Wow that would be awesome
Spicy ✨
The guy with the trumpet 🎺 🙌🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾🔥
Andra Day is amazing ❤️
IMO she was the best performer on the show. Grace, beauty, class, and talent. I now have a new favorite artist to add to my list.
She's so underrated 😩😩like i love her 💕she really reminds me of billy holiday 💕💕
Okay when she said the iconic line your grandchildren will be listening to Strange Fruit well she predicted it true
that story of OJ flip.... that beat is classic man I love what she did here
good catch, didn't even recognize it at first
I loved that switch up! I was like wait did he take it from Billie?
Best performance of the night ✊
She did that!🔥🔥🔥
Yes, she did! 🔥🔥🔥
The person that I have been waiting for... Andra Day!!!
Real singing, real soulful vibe.... amazingly beautiful
But Walmart does the bare minimum for their employers but are out here putting money in everything they have no business in 🤣
So true but let’s see if they keep their word. If they do great in the public eye ppl forget how they treat their employees.
BET & Walmart is out here telling lies. They don't have our backs. 350,000 black Walmart workers are underpaid and overworked. Walmart is the largest retail employer of black folks. Don't listen to this endorsement.
@@biffalow so true! They think we will be fooled by them pretending to care about our community! Pay our ppl a living wage! No one is asking for a handout just pay ppl a fair livable wage for an honest days work!
@@kieshona4161 yes! $11 minimum wage isn't enough for the average worker. Not just the new workers, include the workers that's worked for you for many years and bring them up. Bring all hourly workers up to $15/hour first before you make pledges to our community.
I am 🤣🤣🤣🤣 at your comment but it’s Trueeee
I love her performance, never saw the movie, but I'll see it someday when it comes to DVD!!
It's on Hulu
yes free on hulu watch it.
Nothings coming to dvd anymore … lol
It’s all streaming from now on, unfortunately.
It’s a must watch!
@@SimplyMee..228 😂😂😂😭😭😭
Dang wish she would of song the version from the movie .. it’s so powerful and necessary right now.
It was a combination of two songs, which is why it sounded different. Strange Fruit’ & ‘Tigress & Tweed’. I am a Billie fan and Strange Fruit was the first song I ever heard at 8 years old. So I can understand your perspective, it is very powerful.
@@RR-ps6qg wait so you never heard a song until you were 8 years old!?! Wow that's fascinating! Is there a reason why you didn't hear any music until you were 8?
@@sandra-jones I am 40, I heard this song at 8 years old, not music in general, I wasn't clear there lol. Along with others, it was a part of a collection of music of my mother's who is now deceased. Just hearing this in any version is beautiful but the original version makes the words so much more impactful because of the rhythm and tempo.
@@RR-ps6qg Aaah OK! I'm sorry. I understand. I was about to get some popcorn to sit and read a great little story.
@@RR-ps6qg BTW I agree with your statement about tempo affecting the impact of the lyrics. I noticed she skipped a word or two so it could fit into her stylized version and it did change the impact of the line.
I have to keep coming back to this
Please BET invite Asa from Nigeria, she might be the best Vocalist to ever lived, Her song Jailer is like a taste of Heaven
Omg wow wow wow give her her flowers 😭😭❤️❤️🙏
OMG 😭😭❤❤🙏🌷🌷
I caught a live stream of her performing in D.C. a few years ago ... When the “Forever Mine” video was out. She always had that old-school, jazz-crooning diva vibe of the late ‘50’s-‘60’s with her own indie twist to it … hairstyle, makeup, she even wore a lounge pants set for the D.C. performance.
It was a no brainer for her to do Billie Holiday. I expected no less than the fire she brought. I look forward to seeing more.
She lived that role baby!! I watched it soooo many times ! The best love making scene yasssss
SHE IS INCREDIBLE
Cannot stop coming back to this video. I ❤️ her!
I love Andra and her music. Her voice is EVERYTHING!!! Great performance on stage and in the movie
She sang!! Okay. I'm in love with this performance
Yes, she sang!!
The way she bought Strange Fruit up out of despair thru song.....Simply Amazing 🔥😍🤗💋

Love her voice! 🔥🔥🔥🔥
I’m old enough to say she reminds me of Billie Holiday and Ertha Kitt! She’s so good!
I'm so speechless.. I'm a big billie fan and all I can say is .. 👏 BRAVO.. she killed it .. I love so so love this ..
And that ladies and gentlemen is Andra Day!!
Hearing a jazz on bet in 2021 gives me chills fr
It's me!
I’m just wondering when Taraji’s gonna do an Eartha Kitt biopic. Also love Andra.
I'm loving her her presence is captivating
Still in combat gear. Undefeated! Fighting on!
I've been following her since the beginning of her career, I remember went to her show at the House of Bluse in Houston she was phenomenal. It was like she transported us to a era unknown to many but that night I was there.
