Blind Items Revealed #3

April 22, 2018

This alliterate actress is just one more person who has called out the lack of actual song writing talent this still basically one hit wonder singer/celebrity offspring has and why he has to rely on ghostwriters or ripping off songs for just about everything.

Paula Patton/Robin Thicke

In addition to having no talent, he's to blame for kick-starting insufferable Emily Rat-tit-cow-ski's 15 mins. of fame.

Robin's been around forever. He's been involved in production and up front as a singer. He never had any issues until he sang blurred lines The constant hate he's gotten since is a) because he's a white male and b) because he performed a song that a bunch of hairy pitted bitches decided was rapey. The song itself was produced and co-written by Pharrell, but he's a gay black man so he got a pass for the 'rapey' lyrics and stealing from Marvin Gaye. Personally I have no issue with the dude, he's never fucked any kids, sold drugs or murdered anyone, so on those counts he's got Jay-Z beat hands down.

I have no idea what Blurred Lines is about. I detest the song and tune it out.

Pharrell is black and Asian. I think his mother is Korean.

Robin would not be famous without his dad.he has a Nice voice and would make a great lounge singer. RT is not capable of writing a tune and lifted riffs from Marvin's "I want you " album. Nepotism helps the mediocre offspring get connections and good drugs too.

Paula Patton accused Robin Thicke of spanking their kid lol

I heard "Blurred Lines" on the radio before I knew the artist or the video existed. I liked it right away, even though I recognized the shameless "Got to Give It Up" funk ripoff. When I saw the video, Emily Ratwhatever jumped out at me as an exotic beauty with a spectacular body. Even though the video is hugely sexist, she makes it genuinely sexy. Now I hate them both, but for a little while that whole "Blurred Lines" phenomenon was a pop music pleasure in an age that has too few.

"Got to Give It Up" is from one of Gaye's live albums, not "I Want You. The full 15 minute version takes up an entire side of that album, and it's a studio recording, not live.

Gaye is one of my all-time favorite musical artists. So I found the recent revealed Blind Item about him being a serial killer alarming.

Robin has been in the music industry a looonnngg time. He actually had a completely different image and song style before his 1 hit. When I heard Blurred Lines and saw the vid I didn't think it was the same guy. His daddy besides being the dad on Growing Pains, wrote songs too, including the theme song from Growing Pains.

Unknown said...

His parents are both black.

@DDonna Tarttty

I honestly believe the blind is about someone else. If it is about him then Entry fudged a LOT of details.

Gator said...

I'm not a fan, but he's not a one hit wonder.

Sd Auntie said...

@ddonna. Marvin is not a serial killer. And there was a lawsuit about I want you but am too lazy to look it up. I would need DNA to prove it

T. W. said...

@Unknown

Thanks!

Unknown said...

On the Dear Mama special he said his mother wrote the theme song for growing pains.

Thicke's first record is really good. There are a lot of really good performers who are "one hit wonders" therefore deemed bad artists. This kind of thinking is not a good look. I guess it's okay for a casual music fan.

Both of Pharrell Lanscilo Williams parents are African American.

From Wiki:

Williams was born on April 5, 1973, in Virginia Beach, Virginia,[6][7] the oldest of three sons of Pharaoh Williams, a handyman, and his wife Carolyn, a teacher.[8] His roots extend for generations in Virginia and North Carolina, and one of his ancestors journeyed to West Africa in 1831, prompting other relatives to emigrate from America to Liberia in 1832

I wouldn't call RT a one hit wonder. He had some really good stuff before going "mainstream." His Sex Therapy album featured Jay-Z, Nicki Minaj, Snoop, Ludacris, Kid Cudi. He was just more in the R&B realm before the travesty that was Blurred Lines.

2 Luv Birds and Sex Therapy (and the video is HOT) will always be two of my favorite songs. His voice is great. Too bad he's a dick.

The music business is a joke. Much like the rest of show biz, they're just recycling material from previous, more talented and original generations. Robin Thicke isn't doing anything that a lot of other singers aren't doing. The only difference was that his song was really REALLY popular and had a really obvious recycled hook so the vultures descended to pick the carcass clean.
