June is African-American Music Appreciation Month: A look at Marvin Gaye

June is African-American Music Appreciation Month.

Take a look at one of my favorite singers of all time, Marvin Gaye with the song “What’s Going On.”

Most people do not realized that he wrote almost every song of his career. He also playing on them and several Motown hit records as as he started as a session musician for the company.

The majority of the artists on the label did not write or produce their own songs.
