New visual album and more in celebration of Marvin Gaye’s 50th anniversary of ‘What’s going on’

Marvin Gaye

To honor this momentous record and celebrate Gaye’s life and legacy, Motown/Ume introduced on May 21, 2021, exactly 50 years from the album’s original release, a charge of releases that both conserve and reimagine the essence of What’s Going On.

It features incredible art for each track – all from different animators/artists including director Tim Fox.
