Steemit Open Mic Week 65 – What's Going On (Marvin Gaye)

in openmic •  7 years ago 

"What's Going On" is a song by American artist (and genius) Marvin Gaye, released in 1971 by Motown. Originally inspired by a police brutality incident witnessed by Renaldo "Obie" Benson, the song was composed by Benson, Al Cleveland and Gaye and produced by Gaye himself. Later topping the Hot Soul Singles chart for five weeks and crossing over to number two on the Billboard Hot 100, it would sell over two million copies, becoming Gaye's second-most successful Motown song to date.


Sorry for the bad light. It's part of my winner strategy for this week!
