Marvin Gaye was on a role when he came back and had huge success with his single Sexual Healing, earned him a Grammy, Midnight Love was his most successful record, around the early 80s, he was on fire then and of course April 1st 1984 happened, a very dark day for us soul lovers who were teenagers during the 60s or 70s when Marvin was in his prime.

Now my question is this, how would Marvin Gaye's career had been if hadn't died in 1984? Especially with the direction of soul that was happening throughout the 80s

Basically like a "what if" question.
