Marvin Gaye, officieel Marvin Pentz Gay (Washington, D.C., 2 april 1939 – Los Angeles, 1 april 1984), was een Amerikaanse rhythm-and-blueszanger. Hij geldt als een van de belangrijkste en invloedrijkste soulzangers, en ontwikkelde een revolutionaire opnamestijl waarbij hij via overdubs niet alleen met zichzelf in duet kon gaan maar ook de harmonieën voor zijn rekening nam. Hij werd door zijn vader doodgeschoten.
