Dred Scott is still trying to make sense of the fact that he has gone from street musician to Internet sensation in a matter of months. David Adebonojo, who performs under the name of the slave who unsuccessfully sued to free himself and his family, is something of an institution in downtown Denver. Over the past five years, his bluesy acoustic covers of popular songs, including Marvin Gaye's "What's Going On" and Prince's "Purple Rain," have drawn a following among passers-by intrigued by the talent of a homeless musician.
Dred D Scott has just released his CD “Trials and Tribulations” and has done CBS Early Show and soon on a National TV Show. In the past four weeks, his audience has become international. YouTube clips of his performance have collected more than 800,000 clicks since July.
