2020 Goals
1. 100k KZbin Subscribers
2. Be a guest on Ellen
3. Never work for anyone ever again
A little about me and this channel:
My name is James Aubrey IV and I just recently graduated college from Iowa State University. After college I decided to take a leap of faith. So I moved to San Diego California to pursue my passion for videography/ KZbin. Overall I'm a pretty chill person, outside of KZbin I like to longboard, dance, play video games, lift weights and hangout with my friends. I know that success on KZbin won't happen overnight but I'm willing to stay patient and put in the work to try to prefect my craft daily. This KZbin channel will be centered around my life after college. You will be able to see all of the ups and downs on my journey to success. So if you like the content make sure you subscribe so you can be apart of the Rome Life Family. (Let's build our own personal Rome's together.)
What is the Rome Life ? And What does it mean to be apart of it?
Rome Life is something I started during my Sophomore year of high school (one of the worst times in my life) it started off as me documenting my journey to recovery from my shoulder surgery but eventually it turned into a platform that I could use to encourage myself as well as others to chase our dreams.
Rome Life isn't just a saying it's a way of life and for the people who want to be apart of it have to realize that. Rome wasn't built in a day it took a lot of handwork time and most importantly patience. So you can't expect your dreams to be any different

This song was released in 1971, 49 years ago and it has the exact same meaning now as then. He was singing about police brutality, inequality, social injustice, and protest. Those things are the exact things that are going on in America today. By listening to it you'd never know that he was talking about social issues four decades ago. Marvin was always smooth. In his early years, he sang about love but in his later years, he tried to open everyone's eyes to what was going on in our society.

@Glass24 A lot of songs with "Great Messages" don't always sound good. There's a fine line between poignant and preachy. However, WGO is beautifully sung; written, arranged; produced, thought out, and played (by Marvin; The Great Funk Bros, and Detroit Philharmonic) with a great message to boot.

On 9/20/20 Rolling Stone Magazine updated their ranking of the 500 Greatest Albums of all time.. Marvin Gaye’s What’s Going on Album landed at #1. It is a concept album. Each song blended into the next. Marvin’s brother was in Vietnam and Marvin had some things he wanted to say about the state of the world and it’s ecology.

Richly deserved. It took them about half a century to work out that the very best efforts of the holy trinity of white 60s rock (the Beatles, Dylan, the Stones) were immediately overshadowed by the 1971 release of Marvin Gaye's generational masterpiece, which distilled the intense hope, disappointment, tragedy, pain and bewilderment of that decade better than any of them had ever managed to do, and which, by tapping into the rich veins of jazz & funk they had mostly eschewed, did it with musical values that far exceeded what even their boldest experiments had been able to bring into popular music. But as they say: better late, than never.

I was born & raised in Detroit, Michigan. When I was 13 years of age, after hearing Marvin Gaye's music I had to meet him! I had every album (LP & single) Marvin Gaye ever made! I did not know what a “Concert” was, and I did not care about "getting in trouble", but I snuck out the house, went to Cobo Hall, and somehow made it to the front row! Marvin HELD MY HAND and sang a part of "Distant Lover" to me. Don't get your hopes up! There will never be another Marvin Gaye! My poor Mother...If I didn't play Distant Lover one million times I've never played it! I am BLESSED to have not only been born during the development of Motown, but in Detroit! Peace

I cry everytime 😥😥 I hear this song. My dad is from the "peace and love" era and introduced me to Marvin. It's ironic he mentions "father, father, father!! We don't need to escalate.." considering to what happened to the dude. A true legend an icon to the afro-american communitiy. I'm not afro I'm polynesian. Respect!🙏

"Why is this dude so smooth?" made me smile way too much. If you can, get this on vinyl, crank the bass, and chill to one of the greatest albums ever recorded. James Jamerson is phenomenal on this.

Not only one of my favorites from Marvin, but one of the premiere moving songs with powerful message from his era that still seems relevant listening to it all of these 50 years later.

This was a heartfelt creative project for Marvin. A few years back I played it for a young guy and he said, "Why would anyone listen to this?" I told him, " If I have to explain it to you, you'll never get it anyway."

The entire album is the bomb. In my opinion, the most influential and greatest album ever. Marvin was the first artist to establish dubbing in songs. He is also singing in the background as well. What is so amazing about this album is that each song fluently flows into the next song. It is like listening to one song. I'm 70 and again the best album ever. Glad you enjoyed yes. Yes, Marvin was the man. In fact, Motown did not want him to release this album as it did fit the frame of the music that they were pushing, soul music. Marvin was a genius in the field of music. I'm glad you liked it and loved your reaction.
