Robin Charles Thicke (pronounced “Thick”) (born March 10, 1977 in Los Angeles, California) is an American songwriter and R&B singer. He is the son of soap-opera actress/vocalist Gloria Loring and Canadian actor, songwriter and game show host, Alan Thicke. Robin clearly follows in his parents footsteps and is a producer/actor/singer/songwriter in his own right. Robin performed solely using his surname, Thicke, until 2005. He is married to actress Paula Patton.
In 2000 Thicke went to work on material for his debut album, initially entitled Cherry Blue Skies. The album focused more on blue-eyed soul, than his pop-offerings for other artists. Mixing in influences from British funk outfit Jamiroquai and sounding like his blue-eyed contemporary, Canadian neo-soul singer, Remy Shand, the album was tipped for huge things and to be released in the fall of 2002.
Later on that year, 2002 Thicke released the video and lead single “When I Get You Alone”. The track was very distinctive, sampling Walter Murphy’s “A Fifth of Beethoven”, which itself sampled Beethoven’s Fifth Symphony. The video was quite unlike anything around at that time. It featured an unshaven Thicke, with long, grungy hair, as a courier racing through the streets of Manhattan of a bicyle. It received some rotation on MTV 2 and BET’s “Rated Next” and was spun moderately on urban radio. On the Hot 100, it reached #29 quite quickly, before falling out the chart just as fast. Globally, the song was quite popular, peaking at #17 in Australia, #15 in Belgium, #15 in Italy, #8 in New Zealand and #5 in the Netherlands.

Judging by the three songs I've heard so far, the new album should be called "The Decline of Robin Thicke". God, how I miss the old Thicke.

Shakin' It For Daddy is a mistake. Minaj sounds like a female Lil' Wayne wannabe, and Robin's voice is too sweet to be corrupted by auto-tune! I kind of like Meiple though. It's different; almost reminds me of his earlier work as Thicke.

What is the correct spelling for Meiple? Meiplé? Me I Play? I've seen it differently all over the place. I need a correct tag for my MP3. LO-VE-IT!

'Meiplé' is fresh as hell! I don't know what he was thinking by doing 'Shakin' It For Daddy'. It's like when Musiq did 'Radio', at least that sounded half decent.

WTF is going on with "Shakin' It For Daddy" and "Meiplé..." Nicki Minaj sounds like Amil, hopefully she'll disappear like her to. Where'd Robin go? Robin... paging Robin, return to planet Earth. Stop the stupidity that is "Shakin' It For Daddy."
