Marvin Gaye, NIKE, U.S. Men's Basketball Team Ad..
2008-08-18 22:49:00 I know I haven't mentioned the Olympics in Berlin since my post on Team America wearing Ralph Lauren, but I've been watching it enough. Enough to know that Michael Phelps couldn't be stopped! That and the female gymnasts from China did look a little young. Anyhoo, peep the Nike ad below with Marvin Gaye singing the National Anthem, looking and sounding cooler than everybody, along with the U.S. Basketball Team (The "Redeem Team"). Nice. Marvin Gaye is certainly in the category of being taken away from us way too soon...More on the legendary Marvin Gaye here.

Nike?s Marvin Gaye National Anthem USA Commercial (Video)
2008-08-06 19:41:00 Here is Nike’s new commercial for the USA men’s Olympic basketball team. The footage is backdropped with Marvin Gaye singing the National Anthem at the 1983 NBA All-Star game. I posted Marvin’s performance last year ago here on Bump. To me it is easily the most moving rendition of the song. ...SHARETHIS.addEntry({ title: "Nike's Marvin Gaye National Anthem USA Commercial (Video)", url: "http://bumpshack.com/2008/08/0-6/nikes-marvin-gaye-national-an-them-usa-commercial-video/" });

Tickets for the historic show will only be available through donations to the station of $150, $350, $500 and $750 per pair with special packages at the $2,000 and $5,000 levels. A special pre-sale for Police fan club members starts June 9.Opening will be the B-52's. Nothing has been confirmed, but there are rumors that the show will eventually show up as a PBS special.Chalk up another artists on the Obama bandwagon. Bob Dylan told the U.K.'s Times, "America is in a state of upheaval. Poverty is demoralising. You can't expect people to have the virtue of purity when they are poor."But we've got this guy out there now who is redefining the nature of politics from the ground up, Barack Obama. He's redefining what a politician is, so we'll have to see how things play out."Am I hopeful? Yes, I'm hopeful that things might change. Some thing...

The IRS has been investigating his church (Trinity United Church of Christ) for being used as a political advocacy group rather than a place of worship.

2008-02-02 01:23:00 Jesse L. Martin, from the original cast and movie Rent and TV's Law & Order, will play Marvin Gaye in the biopic Sexual Healing.The movie will focus on the last year of Gaye's life and will co-star the Soprano's James Gandolfini as Gaye's promoter Freddy Cousaert.

James Gandolfini to Star in Marvin Gaye Biopic - SendMeRSS
2008-02-01 23:44:00 James Gandolfini to Star in Marvin Gaye Biopic Word around Hollywood is this: a showbiz exec was boozing it up inside a karaoke lounge on the strip, caught James Gandolfini crooning “Let’s Get It On” and the wet thought hit him: Tony Soprano as R&B legend Marvin Gaye. Brilliant! Hey, it arguably worked for I’m Not There and Palindromes, but the reality is this: Gandolfini is set to star in the indie film, Sexual Healing, as Freddy Cousaert, a charming Belgium club owner who helps a drug-addled, exiled Marvin Gaye make a huge comeback with the album Midnight Loving and the title’s orgasmic single. Of course, the comeback is cut short when Gaye moves back to the United States, is overcome with paranoia and depression and is shot dead by his father a day before turning 45. Music-related films do not generate as much interest as superheros here at /Film, but this is one tale that needs to be told on the big screen. Gaye will be played by Jesse L. Martin...

Gandolfini, Martin sign on for Marvin Gaye biopic
2008-02-01 11:33:00 ‘Sapranos’ star James Gandolfini has signed up to star alongside Jesse L. Martin in the indie feature “Sexual Healing.” The pic, which chronicles the last years of singer Marvin Gaye, is being helmed by Lauren Goodman. Goodman is directing from a script she penned herself, and which is loosely based on Steven Turner’s book “Trouble Man.” The movie will cover Gaye’s life from after he parted with Motown to his self-imposed exile in Europe and will include his relationship with Freddy Cousaert the promoter who guided the singer through the recording of his biggest-selling album, “Midnight Love.” Martin will be playing Gaye while Gandolfini takes on the role of Cousaert, reports Variety. Gandolfini and Alexandra Ryan are producing through their Attaboy Films shingle alongside Ayo Davis, Efuru Flowers and Roger Haber. Gary Hamilton’s Arclight Films and Victor Syrmis will exec prod...

2007-12-29 02:36:00 Jay-Z & Marvin Gaye - Brooklyn Soul [2007]Another exciting creative project from The League Crew. This time Mick Boogie linked up with his producer friends Shuko and The Gunna (from Europe!) and hooked Jay-Z up with even more of that classic 70?s soul sound. Completely produced using Marvin Gaye samples and elements, this album takes a great album and makes it classic.The mixtape game has welcomed Mick Boogie. Having done cd's with artists such as Lupe Fiasco, LIl Wayne, 50 Cent, Common, Busta Rhymes, Ghostface, Nas, Young Jeezy, Kanye West and more, artists and labels look to Mick to help break their artists in the Midwest. However, Mick's discs reach far beyond the Midwest, with distribution throughout the world. MTV refers to Mick's discs as "truly amazing." Retail powerhouse Mixunit.com ranked Mick one of the 30 most important people in mixtapes.

Hip-O Select Releasing Expanded Here, My Dear
2007-12-06 08:03:00 Back in December 1978, Marvin Gaye had a slight lull in what had, up to the time, been a stellar career. The album Here, My Dear was the rare Gaye album that didn't contain any hit singles.In fact, Here, My Dear was a rather odd affair. A double album of songs chronicling the disolution of his marriage to Barry Gordy, Jr.'s sister, Anna Gordy Gaye. As part of their divorce settlement, Anna was to receive a large portion of the advance and the royalties for Marvin's next album. Instead of a throw-away, Gaye wrote music about his deepest feelings about the split. Even the cover and inner sleeves commented on the situation.Even though the brilliance of the album is recognized today, it was not as well accepted upon release, reaching number four on the R&B album and 26 pop album charts. In contrast, five of his last six non-greatest hits albums had gone to number one. In addition, not one single charted on either the R&B or pop charts.This Friday, Hip-O Select is rele...

2007-11-26 22:12:00 Marvin Is 60: A Tribute Album [1999]The second Marvin Gaye tribute album assembled by Motown within a five-year period, Marvin Is 60 brings little to the table but faithful renditions of its 13 selections. While many of the artists present owe obvious debts to the singer, only a couple are able to do more than hint at Gaye's greatness: for instance, Erykah Badu and D'Angelo do a charming if hardly earthshaking cover of the Gaye/Tammi Terrell duet "Your Precious Love." Jon B and new Motown-signed Profyle lay down note-for-note copies of What's Going On treasures, while dull-edged romancers such as Brian McKnight and Will Downing do the same for classics from Let's Get It On. Finally, Zhane's weak-voiced take on "Got to Give It Up" illuminates Gaye's own record by reminding us just how much he could do with a little falsetto breathiness. Marvin Gaye - Midnight Love [1986]Marvin's first album for Columbia, and the last completed studio album before his death, is yet another soli...

Marvin Gaye & Kim Weston - It Takes Two (1966)
2007-10-08 08:30:00 One of the most gifted, visionary, and enduring talents ever launched into orbit by the Motown hit machine, Marvin Gaye blazed the trail for the continued evolution of popular black music. Moving from lean, powerful R&B to stylish, sophisticated soul to finally arrive at an intensely political and personal form of artistic self-expression, his work not only redefined soul music as a creative force but also expanded its impact as an agent for social change.Marvin Pentz Gay, Jr. (in the style of his hero Sam Cooke, he added the "e" to his surname as an adult) was born April 2, 1939, in Washington, D.C. The second of three children born to the Reverend Marvin Gay, Sr., an ordained minister in the House of God -- a conservative Christian sect that fuses elements of orthodox ...

He's been with his girlfriend/doormat Kim Porter for four years, he also has a son and newborn twin girls, but fatherhood doesn't have to include monogamy.Especially when you have some Marvin Gaye playing in the background. Baby making music leads to cheating?Diddy explains how he gets ready for a night out on the town."When I dress, I like to put on some Marvin Gaye. I invite a few women into my room and we have a few drinks. We sort of have a little party getting dressed. For me, it has to be a very sensual experience, so of course I have to have some women around me as I dress. I don't just find women beautiful to look at -- I love their company. I try to be good, I really do. But sometimes that's just too hard." I know P. Diddy puts in a lot of energy trying to sound straight, claiming he's had sex for 28 hours in a row and he's not ready to get married and etc., but Diddy sounds queer as folk!Tell me whic...
