Stevie Wonder-3-819x1024In the year 1970, Stevie Wonder left MoTown and made two albums for himself. Berry Gordy was shocked to learn of this from Stevie Wonder and Berry Gord was able to agree with Stevie Wonder's demands for more autonomy and complete creative control and the rights to all his songs. Stevie Wonder signed a contract worth thirteen million dollars with MoTown Records in 1972. Stevie Wonder was entitled to a higher royalty rate as well as greater creative control and the rights of his songs. This was a unique opportunity for artists at the time. The songs of Wonder now discussed controversial topics such as war, poverty, and drugs. His album from 1972, Music Of My Mind was the first album to be released under the MoTown contract. In late 1972 Stevie Wonder released an album that is now regarded as an important piece of music, Talking Book. The album featured the most popular hit song, Superstition.
