1-The Murder of Motown Legend Marvin Gaye

Welcome to Season 3 of Enmeshed! We’re so grateful for everyone’s positive support and we’re looking forward to bringing you even more stories of toxic family relationships that lead to unimaginable ends!  To start us off, today’s story of enmeshment is one of jealousy, delusion, and soul music. We’re talking about the Prince of Motown, Marvin Gaye, and his father, Marvin Gay Senior. I’m willing to bet that even though you know songs like “Sexual Healing” and “I Heard It Through The Grapevine”, a lot of our audience hasn’t heard this story before! 

Marvin Gaye was a legendary American singer, songwriter, and record producer known for his soulful and socially conscious music. He was one of the most influential artists in the Motown era and his hits include "What's Going On," "Let's Get It On," and "Sexual Healing." Marvin Gaye's music continues to inspire and resonate with audiences around the world!🎶
