why would you say something like that? Why can't he be a talented guy that appreciates and respects the music that us black ppl have made? Why can't it just be about music? Black ppl claim they want respect, change, and progress but soon as they have some they find fault for every little thing. He isn't Elvis, a racist that doesn't want to be seen with black ppl or takes credit for all his hits. Give them a break. Maybe when he was younger this is all he grew up listening to. Look at his biography and get to know the guy.
Singer/songwriter
Robin Thicke was one of the few to define the new millennium's blue-eyed soul movement. His creamy California skin and sapphire blue eyes were equally charming, but
Thicke has merit. He has a soulful disposition similar to
Remy Shand, but mix that with the funk of
Jamiroquai and you have
Thicke's sultry R&B sound.
As the son of vocalist
Gloria Loring and Growing Pains'
Alan Thicke,
Thicke grew up in the suburbs of Los Angeles during the '80s and '90s. He credits his dad's musical tastes, for it was him that motivated
Thicke to immerse himself in all kinds of pop music. The elder
Thicke is popular for writing the theme songs for The Facts of Life and Diff'rent Strokes, so naturally
Thicke had his head in music. He was an average student; by 13, he was writing songs. Three years later, he befriended the president of Bad Boy Entertainment,
Andre Harrell, and struck a deal with Interscope.
Thicke began writing hits for the likes of
Christina Aguilera,
Mya,
Brandy,
Marc Anthony, and
Jordan Knight. Still, an artist in the making was dying for his own chance. By 2000,
Thicke, who was in his mid-20s, made his dream come true.
Thicke issued his debut album,
Cherry Blue Skies, in fall 2002. ~ MacKenzie Wilson, All Music Guide
