HE DOES IT AGAIN! January 7, 2009 Robin Thicke does it again. He has so much SOUL, it is unbelieveable. I am looking forward to his next CD already, can't get enough!
Fantastic piece of work... January 3, 2009 I am saddened that I didn't jump on this album sooner. I loved "The Evolution" and thought he couldn't top or even come close to the greatness of that album. I have been proven wrong and can't stop listening to "Loverman".
excels in consistency January 3, 2009 This is a very well done R&B album, and I give it the same rating as I would the original (Evolution of Robin Thicke) but it earns that distinction in a markedly different way.
Evolution impressed by having extraordinary stand out tracks (Can U Believe, 2 the Sky, Complicated, Teach U A Lesson, I need love and of course Lost without U) it also had songs that I skip over till today (Cocaine, Shooter, All Night long ...). My gripe with Evolution was that the pacing of the album is not so hot ... it goes from a nice slow jam like "I need love" to the craptastic "Wanna love u Girl" to the awesome "Can U Believe" back to "Shooter" and "Cocaine"
However, with "Something Else" what you get is a more mature and solidly R&B album than Evolution. The songs that resemble each other in tempo tend to cluster together more instead of being sprinkled all through the album ... and it makes for a more consistent listening experience.
None of the songs here really reach the heights of the ones on Evolution (standouts include Cry no more, Tie my hands, Loverman, Dreamworld, Ms Harmony) but they are pretty darned good.
The fact that the lows on this album aren't as 'low' as on Evolution, makes up for the fact that its highs are not as 'high' as on Evolution ... and thats okay with me, because it makes the album seem more complete.
enjoy.
This Brother Is Truly "Something Else" January 2, 2009 Great CD!!! Robin Thicke is a truly remarkable singer/songwriter who invokes memories of the late great Marvin Gaye!!! As I listened to this CD, especially "Ms. Harmony", "Sweetest Love" and "You're My Baby", I was quietly swept back to the days when Marvin was soothing and grooving the world with his angelic voice. Kudos to you Mr Thicke, you have made me a huge fan!!!
Excellent Artist for the Family to listen to... December 23, 2008 I enjoyed listening to Robin's single and the album is even better. Hope that you enjoy too.
