There is no official “Greatest Hits 2021” compilation from the Marvin Gaye estate or Universal Music. Most legitimate Marvin Gaye greatest hits albums (e.g., 20th Century Masters , Number 1s , The Very Best of Marvin Gaye ) are mastered from original tapes, but a 24-bit/192kHz version would typically come from a hi-res reissue of a specific album, not a fan-compiled hits set. Any file labeled “hot” on forums is likely an upscaled or unauthorized rip. For true hi-res quality, seek official HDtracks or Qobuz releases of his studio albums or curated compilations from verified sources. Always support the artist’s legacy through legal purchases.
