Why Does Robin Thicke Get A Pass?

[MikeBrownsJob]

When Robin drops an album that no one is checking for, no one accuses him of being a culture thief. Even when he shows up on black shows like Real Husbands as the "hip white guy who gets it" no one says anything. Even though he is an industry kid and put on basically because of his parents. He didn't put in work like JT, so why does he get a pass and not JT?

Stop making these horrible threads

 

[Drew Wonder]

I'm a fan of both dudes, but I imagine it's because RT married a black woman while JT threw a black woman under the bus

Also, a lot of people can't let go of the fact that JT started out in a corny ass boy band. Robin Thicke has always done soul music and never catered to a pop audience, even when he was looking bummy with the long hair.

 

[madness]

his pops was one of the coolest tv dads when i was a jit. robin will always get a pass.

 

[MikeBrownsJob]

So black people give this guy a pass for marrying a bi-racial woman and having an octeroon?

Look at that lovely black family

 

[TrapHouse Rock]

But JT started somewhere. Robin has had access his whole life due to his family ties. I respect a hustla more than B-Rad

wasn't JT on Disney and etc? He had clear connections into the music game as well.

But he tried out for those things as in talent shows. Robin Thicke practically grew up on set. You can't really argue that. If he told his pops he wanted to be Scorsese he could of had a meeting arranged the next day and all kinds of film workshops for him. No talent required.

 

[AquaCityBoy]

Who cares?

All them dudes talking about "culture theft" are faux pro-black fakkits anyway. Who gives a fukk what they think?

As far as I'm concerned, Jamiroquai is one of the most talented musicians..white or black..

he still had an easy transition from Disney to the pop bubble gum shyt he debuted with.

and again Thicke's first album flopped. Musically you can say Justin had an easier rode.

He created that easier road. That's the difference. Robin's first album tanked because maybe it wasn't that good. Just a thought.
