Marvin Gaye – What’s Going On

Marvin Gaye is a singer who ranked sixth in Rolling Stone’s list of the Greatest Singers of All Time.

“What’s Going On” is one of his most famous and outstanding songs.

It was released in 1971.

In the United States at the time, against the backdrop of the protracted Vietnam War, the anti-war movement was gaining momentum.

Created in that context, the song is highly socially conscious, asking, “What’s going on?”

Meek Mill – Going Bad feat. Drake (Official Video)

“Going Bad” means “to snap back/retort aggressively” in Japanese, and as the lyrics suggest, it seems to be one of the lessons from Drake, a true heavyweight in the hip-hop world.

The song is all about flaunting wealth, fame, and ultra-celebrity status—but that makes sense when it’s a major collaboration between Meek Mill and Drake.

It’s a track only these two, who stand at the very top of global rap, could pull off.
