Album Review: Robin Thicke - Something Else

Tuesday September 30, 2008
Robin Thicke - Something ElseOn his third album, Something Else (released in the U.S. on Sept. 30, 2008), Blue-Eyed Soul singer Robin Thicke continues his evolution as a person and an artist. The album, which is the follow-up to his 2006 breakthrough The Evolution of Robin Thicke, is a little more mature, a little more sexy, a little more polished than his first two albums. The new album's also essentially a tribute to '70s Soul music, particularly that of the late, great Marvin Gaye. The album isn't entirely retro though - it somehow manages to expertly - and easily - walk the fine line between classic and modern-day Soul music. For more, check out the full review of Thicke's Something Else.
