Back in 1971, history was made when the Motown album 'What's Going On' took the world by storm. The single became a crossover hit single that reached #2 on the US pop charts and #1 on the R&B charts. People all across the globe were able to connect in and feel the power as millions related to the messages inside, and it also marked Gaye's departure from the pop style of 1960s-era Motown towards more personal material.

It is now time to celebrate the 40th anniversary of this time so in conjunction with the song played on this week's show we thought we would bring you the video from the 2001 campaign 'Artists Against AIDS Worldwide'

The video features the sounds of the following artists: Monica,  Lil Kim, Jagged Edge, TLC, Britney Spears, Backstreet Boys, Mary J. Blige, Sean Combs, Destiny's Child, Jermaine Dupri (Producer), Eve, Gwen Stefani, Nelly Furtado, Nona Gaye, Wyclef Jean, Christina Aguilera, Alicia Keys, Jennifer Lopez, Nas, Ja Rule, Nelly, *NSYNC.
