In my opinion, with Robin Thicke, it's the same story, different white dude. It's been happening since Elvis. Robin's music and vocal style bites too hard off Marvin Gaye and I just can't look past that with him. Joe on the other hand had his own sound and style and HITS- R&B classics that are timeless. His velvety smooth voice is the reason so many people sounded off when 50 tried to replace him on the Power theme song. Tamia is equally talented with a significant catalog herself, I think they make a great touring duo.
