Introduction
Robin Thicke is an American-Canadian singer, actor, and songwriter, best known for his 2013 single Blurred Lines.
Biography
He was born on March 10, 1977, in Los Angeles, California, USA, as Robin Charles Thicke.
Thicke has Welsh, Norwegian, Scottish, Irish, and English ancestry.
His parents are Gloria Loring and Growing Pains actor Alan Thicke.
Robin has an older brother, Brennan, and a younger half-brother, Carter William.
In 2016, his father died at age 69 while playing hockey in Burbank with Carter. At the time of his death, Alan Thicke was married to Tanya Callau. ”He was a wonderful man, a great father,” Robin said for Nola in February 2020.
At the age of 16, Thicke inked a deal with Interscope Records with some help from Brian McKnight.
On October 15, 2002, his debut album, “A Beautiful World,” debuted on the Billboard Music Charts at #152. ”I was so afraid of failing that I waited from 16 to 23, seven years to even put the album out,” Robin said.
His future wife, Paula Patton, was featured on the cover of the album. It sold more than 119,000 copies.
On October 3, 2006, Thicke’s second album, ”The Evolution of Robin Thicke,” was released. The album sold over 20,000 copies in its first week.
On June 28, 2007, Thicke started his self-entitled YouTube channel. It has over 1,83 million subscribers.
In 2008, Robin produced Jennifer Hudson’s song “Giving Myself” for Jennifer’s self-titled album.
Blurred Lines
In 2013, Robin went supernova with “Blurred Lines,” a song that spent 12 weeks atop Billboard’s Hot 100 and sold over 10 million copies. The song featured T.I. and Pharrell.
The drumming was inspired by the Marvin Gaye song “Got to Give It Up.”
The video for the song has two versions. ”I loved the clothed version, and the nude version I thought maybe was a little too much,” Thicke said in an interview. He added: ”The gentleman in me wasn’t sure that it was necessary. Then I showed it to my wife [Paula Patton], and all of her friends, and everyone’s immediate response seemed to be ‘This is amazing.’”
In 2018, a judge ruled that Thicke and Pharrell pay out $5 million to the family of Marvin Gaye. In addition, the Gaye family received 50% interest in ongoing royalties from the song.
”[It] encourages today’s writers to create original work that does not take advantage of the success of others while pawning it off as their own,” said Gaye family attorney Richard S Busch about the verdict.
In 2014, Thicke made his film debut, starring alongside Tygh Runyan and Jaime Pressly in the film ”Making the Rules.” Also in 2014, Robin released an album called ”Paula.” It debuted at #9 on the US Billboard 200 chart.
