Robin Thicke has not been in the music for that long now, but he has already become a household name in the R&B and soul genres. And, let's be clear about this. His last name is spelled 'Thicke', not 'Thick'. Make sure not to miss out on the 'e'!

His career having started at 2002, Robin Thicke has released three albums already. But it's his latest album, The Evolution of Robin Thicke, that did the trick for Robin Thicke. As the popular saying goes, and it definitely applies here, third time's the charm! And the third album has even garnered a lot of hits on Robin Thicke's homepage and websites worldwide!

So, what is it about Robin Thicke's music that has captured the fancy of fans worldwide? And does the comparison of Robin Thicke's high falsetto voice with that of Justin Timberlake's justifiable? Let's take these one at a time.

Robin Thicke just has this incredible ability to make his tracks more inclined towards soul, rather than the likes of R&B and pop. And yet, he is still able to catch the attention of R&B and pop fans as well. Somewhere, between the lines of lyrics and musical arrangement, Robin Thicke is able to do just that.

The title of Robin Thicke's latest album, The Evolution of Robin Thicke, actually serves its purpose well. Because Robin Thicke does go into some sort of evolution or transition, from his past albums to the present one.

Robin Thicke sees his latest album as a significant turn of events in the music scene as a whole. In this day and age, music genres have definitely been intertwined more than once by artists. Rock and hip hop, alternative and pop, you name it! And Robin Thicke aimed to do this in his album as well! Because of this, the album has garnered significant profits from the digital downloads of the album's mp3 tracks.

When you listen to Robin Thicke's latest album, you cannot really categorize his music into one general genre, or even into subgenres. That's because he mixed his songs after his wide range of musical influences, which include Marvin Gaye, Stevie Wonder, Jim Morrison, and even the funky hip hop style of the Beastie Boys!

The first single, Wanna Love U Girl, features producer Pharrell Williams. It was released early August of 2005, and is more inclined towards the pop genre. Wanna Love U Girl was expected to scale the Billboard charts, but for some reason, it fell short of people's expectations.

Nonetheless, Robin Thicke's next single, Lost Without U, was able to make up for the lack of success of the previous single release. In fact, not long after its release in late 2006, Lost Without U began to scale the Billboard charts as well. Lost Without U peaked at the top spots on the US Billboard Hot R&B/Hip-Hop Songs, the US Billboard R&B/Hip-Hop Airplay, and the US Billboard Adult R&B Airplay. To date, Lost Without U is now Robin Thicke's most successful single, that it has already become his trademark song!

Robin Thicke reveals that Lost Without U is actually a very personal track for him. In fact, Robin Thicke composed Lost Without U during a trying period in his life. Because of the lack of success pertaining to his music, Robin Thicke once experienced a period of low self-esteem. He was then inspired to write Lost Without U for his wife, with the intentions of asking his wife to assure him that he was not worthless as he felt back then.

Sure enough, Lost Without U grabbed success very quickly, and Robin Thicke began feeling better about the path his music has taken now! So glad was he that he even asked his wife to be in the music video for Lost Without U with him! Robin Thicke also reveals that he once thought that the music video for Lost Without U would be the last ever music video he'd be making. So, it seemed very appropriate to have his wife play the lead in the video! And what a payoff it has been!

Yes, Robin Thicke hasn't been successful in the music scene that long. But he will definitely be staying in the scene for a long time. With the way things are going, this won't come as a surprise at all!
