We knew we wanted it, right?!

In a fortnight filled with Robin Thicke commentary, we figured it was only fair to follow the crowd with our own two cents. Here it goes. The guy looks like the type to order bottle service in the club awaiting blow jobs from a pill popping bulimic, sings creepy songs and regularly grinds on stage with anaemic tween pop idols. But, didn't the same ahem, “haterz”, indulge in so-called “rape okay” anthem Blurred Lines? C’mon guys, Robin is a big creep but whoever claims to have attended a dance floor to stand still in protest of the “anti-fat-chick” vibes of Blurred Lines is a liar.*

Robin, not chilling with his wife.

Lack of sales is an easy shot but by the same token, people still make the statement ‘who sells anything these days anyway?.’ You can’t have it both ways. He’s a creep and you hate the music on the basis of overuse of live grinding or you dislike the music because it’s terrible. Stuff doesn't sell because it’s GOD FUCKING AWFUL, not because the guy is a creep. You've heard the one about Robin having a large whatever for you, yes? Go ahead and refresh your sexually explicit senses below... 





That^ featured on an album with sales of over 65,000.

Well, creep hunters, just when you thought it couldn't get any worse the anatomically gifted Thicke released an entire album based on the collapse of his marriage. Now, weird levels aside, this theme for the production of an entire album is always going to end in disaster. It’s just common sense. Can you imagine the diabolical sound produced if Ronnie Wood decided to roll out Jo: Sorry I slept with that waitress, The Album? It’s all relative. Release date, artist or video treatments have nothing to do with it – insulting the fans which Pharrell Williams tirelessly provided his leftovers to produce for you however - does. Win those fans back Mr.Thicke, and they’ll soon forget the overzealous ass grabbing followed by inter-flora deliveries to your estranged wife.


Here’s a collection of our favourite discussions elsewhere on what shall now be creatively deemed “Robin Thicke-Gate part 99,999”




*Yes, generalisation. You’re so smart!
