There’s room for more than one blue-eyed soulman in this piece.

The Viewfinder: Robin Thicke,”All Tied Up”
Robin Thicke gets sexy (again…) in his new video. Check out the latest from the “Duets” star!
Shoulda Been A Hit: Robin Thicke’s “Brand New Jones”
These days, Robin Thicke is a gold and platinum-selling artist. A Grammy winner, the son of actors Alan Thicke and Gloria Loring defines R&B smoothness. However, it took a while for him to become “Robin Thicke.” At the outset of his performing career, he was simply “Thicke,” and his persona was more daring funkster (with a romantic streak) than suited-up smoothie. Robin had already made a name for himself as a singer and songwriter before his debut album, A Beautiful […]
Spin Cycle: Robin Thicke’s “Love After War”
Robin Thicke has to be the most unlikely R&B star of all time. His mom is a former soap star. His dad is Jason Fucking Seaver. Irregardless of his stardom, what’s proven a bit more interesting to me is how someone who seemed to be bringing a quirky, fresh attitude to pop ‘n b turned so conventional over the course of his career. I was what you might call an “early adopter” of Robin. Back in the summer of 2002, […]

The Viewfinder: Robin Thicke’s “Love After War”
One of the better moments during Sunday’s American Music Awards was watching Robin Thicke (who is definitely his father’s son) goof his way through the proper pronunciation of Ellie Goulding’s name while presenting an award. Not sure if the brief appearance on the award show will do anything to promote sales of his upcoming fifth album Love After War, but hell…he doesn’t have to do anything to convert me anyway. The video for the album’s first single and title track […]

C’mon Son!: Five “Get it Together” Hopes for 2011
I realize that I spent most of the past seven days talking about how great music was in 2010, and like I’ve said before, last year was one of the best years for music (no matter the genre) in quite some time. That said, there were a number of musicians who disappointed me last year-either by making substandard records or by being complete asses publicly. Here are five artists who either need to right the ship from a musical standpoint, […]
Spin Cycle: Quincy Jones “Soul Bossa Nostra”
The fact that “Soul Bossa Nostra” even exists is a bit confusing to me. Like, did this album need to be made? After all-it basically amounts to a huge slap on the back for Quincy Jones. Not to say he doesn’t deserve props-the man was at the top of his game for the better part of forty years and is an integral part of music history, let alone black music history. But I question the wisdom of letting a who’s […]
