Asia Marsette Marvin Gaye
April 2, 1939- April 1 1984
Early Life: ~Gaye was the eldest of Marvin Gay Sir children. ~He started singing in church when he was 4 years old. ~Gaye attended Cardozo High School and joined several doo-wop vocal groups. Interesting Facts: ~ He recorded songs by Smokey Robinson before coming his own producer. ~He was killed in 1984 during domestic dispute with his father. ~ Marvin Gaye JR added the “E” on the end of his name later in life. Why Marvin Gaye should be in the hall of fame I think that the person I’m doing should be put the black history hall of fame because his music is still playing until this day even after his death. Also because he was a very influential person and he have got many Grammy awards. One of his awards was “Hall of Fame”. So this is why I think that Marvin Gaye should be put in John L. Costley black history Hall of Fame.
