Description:
What’s Going On is the eleventh studio album from legendary American soul singer Marvin Gaye, originally released in May 1971.
Widely regarded as one of the greatest soul albums ever recorded, the album marked a significant artistic turning point for Marvin Gaye, introducing a more socially conscious and deeply personal approach to his music.
Inspired by themes of war, poverty, environmental concerns and social injustice, the record combines beautiful melodies, sophisticated arrangements and Gaye’s unmistakable vocals to create a timeless musical masterpiece.
Featuring iconic recordings including What’s Going On, Mercy Mercy Me (The Ecology), Inner City Blues (Make Me Wanna Holler) and What’s Happening Brother, this album remains one of the most important releases in soul music history.
