In this month’s case study, during the five-year anniversary of the chart success of “Blurred Lines,” I take a look at Robin Thicke’s follow-up album. Blatantly inspired by his marital turmoil, and initially pegged as a failure, I wanted to find out: is it really that bad? Does Thicke deserve our sympathy? And have any albums attempted what he tried since? The answers are yes, not really, and surprisingly yes.
Do you agree? Disagree? Do you think maybe I’m going deaf, maybe I'm going blind, or maybe I'm out of my mind? Let me know in the comments!
