Gaye and Krueger settled their dispute without having to go to trial. Gaye, now scared of a possible arrest warrant for avoiding the IRS, decided to settle in London where he partook on the city's nightlife and suffered a relapse. By now, Gaye had learned of freebasing while living in London and would spend weeks getting high. Gaye also began to reevaluate the Love Man album stating "I had to do something for money, but I also had an obligation - to the truth.

The mild disco sound of "Lover's Plea" again was altered for more gospel influences in the song "Praise", even
