He helped to shape the sound of Motown in the 1960s, first as an in-house session player and later as a solo artist with a string of hits, earning him the nicknames "Prince of Motown" and "Prince of Soul".
Gaye's Motown hits include "Ain't That
PeculiarHow Sweet
It Is (To Be Loved By You)", and
"I Heard It Through the Grapevine", and duet recordings with Mary Wells, Kim Weston, Diana Ross, and Tammi Terrell.
During the 1970s, he recorded the albums "
What's Going On" and "Let's Get It On" and became one of the first artists in Motown, along with Stevie Wonder, to break away from the reins of a production company.
His later recordings influenced several contemporary R&B subgenres, such as quiet storm and neo soul.
Following a period in Europe as a tax exile in the early 1980s, he released the 1982 hit "Sexual Healing", which won him his first two Grammy Awards, and its parent album "Midnight Love".
Gaye's last television appearances were at the 1983 NBA All-Star Game, where he sang "The Star-Spangled Banner" and on "Soul Train" which was his third and final appearance.
On April 1, 1984, the day before his 45th birthday, Gaye's father, Marvin Gay Sr., fatally shot him at their house in the West Adams district of Los Angeles.
Many institutions have posthumously bestowed Gaye with awards and other honors including the Grammy Lifetime Achievement Award, and inductions into the Rhythm and Blues Music Hall of Fame, the Songwriters Hall of Fame, and the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame.

Here, My Dear (song)
" Here, My Dear" is a song written, composed and produced by American soul singer Marvin Gaye, issued on the album of the same name in 1978.
The song was a sort of introduction to the deeply confessional and post-divorce concept that gave a chronological look back at the tempestuous marriage between Marvin and first wife Anna.
The lyric," You do n't have the right to use a son of mine to keep me in line", became a memorable lyric for fans of Gaye and very much was a lyric attacking Anna for demanding alimony and child support payments to support then- twelve- year- old Marvin, III.
Marvin then sarcastically told his wife that he dedicated the album to her but warned that she might" not be happy" and telling Anna" this is what you wanted" making a reference to the judge in their divorce case to give up royalties from this album to Anna.
The song's musical background would be used for the song" Everybody Needs Love" from this album.

Everybody Needs Love (Marvin Gaye song)
"Everybody Needs Love" is a 1977 song recorded by American soul singer Marvin Gaye and issued on the singer's confessional 1978 album, "Here, My Dear".

Co-composed with "Let's Get It On" co-writer Ed Townsend, the song was based on a religious theme and was switched around by Marvin in certain areas including the lyrics "And my father/
he needs love/
that's true, baby/
and I need love too
" hinting at the tempestuous relationship between Marvin and his minister-father Marvin, Sr.
The song's musical background was also used to introduce the album on the title track.
