On this day, March 28, 1971, Marvin Gaye's 'What's Going On' reached no.1 on the Billboard R&B Album charts. Not bad for an album full of #wokesongs that Berry Gordy originally believed couldn't be a commercial success. #MarvinGaye

Marvin Gaye, Inner City Blues (1971). This track is from Marvin's masterpiece album "What's Going On." This song and the whole album are a testament to being #Woke Motown's Berry Gordy shelved this album for over 2 years before its release because he didn't think it was marketable. #wokesongs
