The commercial failure of his last album Journey through the Secret Life of Plants with only one single “Send One Your Love” making the top 5 of the Billboard chart left Stevie Wonder struggling at the turn of the new decade.[4][5] He let the media know that he felt that Motown had not promoted the album very well.[6] His talents kept him busy when he co-wrote the song “Let’s Get Serious” with Lee Garrett for Jermaine Jackson‘s 1980 album of the same name and another with Eric Mercury called “You Are My Heaven” which became a success for Roberta Flack and Donny Hathaway on Atlantic Records. During this time of upheaval, he was also in demand as a guest artist on many other albums ranging from the likes of B.B. King, James Taylor, Quincy Jones and Smokey Robinson among others.[5]

Inspired by the growing popularity of Bob Marley‘s music and its clear messages against war, “Master Blaster (Jammin’)” (US #5; R&B #1) was Wonder’s way of honoring Marley. The country-tinged “I Ain’t Gonna Stand for It” (U.S. #11; R&B #4), the ballad “Lately” (U.S. #64) and the upbeat “Happy Birthday” were other notable successes from the album.
