Released in 1971, What’s Going On is Marvin Gaye’s groundbreaking soul masterpiece—an introspective, socially conscious concept album that redefined Motown. It addresses war, poverty, environmental crisis, and injustice through lush arrangements and layered vocals. Hailed as one of the greatest albums of all time, it topped critics’ lists, changed the sound of Black music, and continues to resonate more than 50 years later.
