While Robin Thicke's "Blurred Lines" has remained a massive hit (and his album even received mostly favorable reviews), the song has had a sexsim debate raging around it since day one. The Quietus' Mr. Agreeable came late to the party and took Thicke to task over his infamous music video. Read More »
Robin Thicke's "Blurred Lines" is basically inescapable to any radio listener. Yesterday, Billboard reported that in the last week, the track surpassed Mariah Carey's "We Belong Together" as the song with the largest radio audience in tracking history. With the song being unavoidable, some music fans are growing tired of the track and turn it off or down when it comes on in the car, and Thicke himself has admitted he's one of those people.

Daft Punk's booked performance on last night's (Aug. 6) episode of "The Colbert Report" did not go quite as planned, apparently. When the show opened last night, Stephen Colbert announced that despite being booked, the French electronic duo were not able to appear on the lampooning news show, because Viacom sister network MTV had booked Daft Punk to perform in a "secret" performance at the 2013 VMAs.

Robin Thicke continued with the promotion and lampooning of his massive summer single "Blurred Lines" in a viral video with "Late Night" host Jimmy Fallon and hip-hop legends The Roots. In a move similar to Carly Rae Jepsen's "Call Me Maybe" and Mariah Carey's "All I Want For Christmas Is You," Thicke, Fallon and co. redid "Blurred Lines" using children's classroom instruments. The result is an adorable, jolly three-and-a-half minute rendition of the sexy tune. Read More »
It's not exactly like Robin Thicke needs to promote "Blurred Lines" anymore. The controversial genre-bending song has held the top spot in the country for eight weeks now, besting such hits as Daft Punk's "Get Lucky," Miley Cyrus' "We Can't Stop" and One Direction's "Best Song Ever." However, Thicke is not one to stop, apparently. Last night (July 31), the Canadian crooner performed his smash hit on NBC show "America's Got Talent." Read More »
Robin Thicke may be be singing "Blurred Lines," but there is nothing obscure about his latest album. The singer-songwriter, who has been on the scene for more than a decade penning tunes for the likes of Mary J.Blige, Christina Aguilera and more, mainly remained in the shadows of Justin Timberlake (as if there's only room for one soulful white guy in R&B). But with the help of producers will.i.am, Timbaland and The Neptunes, Thicke creates the perfect balance of pop, party and love songs all wrapped strategically into his sixth studio album, and proves that he is, and always has been, in his own lane.

The reviews are in on Robin Thicke's Blurred Lines and -as can be expected, since we've heard most of what's here already- the talk is overwhelmingly positive. That's not a knock on Thicke or a claim of derivativeness, Interscope Records has been shoving the album down our throats for weeks now, making an artist with a weeks-long stint at the top of the global charts seem even more omnipresent. From the look of these reviews, no one is complaining. Read More »
