I thought you did a great job on this, and I completely agree that Lupe Fiasco and particularly the song I Never Said was definitely influenced by Marvin and specifically What’s going on. Only suggestion I have is it would have been good to have some more about Marvin Gaye and his history, and the history of the What’s going on instead of mainly focusing on the Lupe Fiasco record. Lupe is one of my favorite emcee’s and he definitely has multiple songs influenced, there are many Hip-Hop artists that are heavily influenced by Marvin Gaye and this album. Still a good pod cast and your point was presented well.
