So why all the Robin Thicke hate?

[DragonMaster2010]

I find the whole thing hilarious - like, there were two other guys on that Blurred Lines song and only Thicke gets the hassle. Even though Pharrell is also married. But apparently despite co-writing and producing the track, only Robin gets hate.

Whatever.

Both Thicke and Pharrell have (needlessly) defended the lyrics - but some mental women have gone overboard and made it out to be something it's not. It really is not about raping women or whatever nonsense.

The rest of the hate is probably due to that whole Miley Cyrus thing...

That was actually something I found strange.

Why did Robin Thicke get all the hate from some people, YET those same people are enjoying Pharell's music and saying he's such a cool guy?

But like you said, it's ridiculous.

Well Pharrell is music's golden boy right now and his collaborations such as Daft Punk as well as his own stuff like Happy means he can do no wrong for the time being. That and the fact that Robin sings the seemingly more offensive lyrics and Pharrell just says hey hey hey. But the guy who does the rap part which has the tasteful(!) line "split your *** in two" - nothing commented on that either.

I guess Thicke is seen as the front man and therefore responsible for everything by default. Kind of like a soap star who plays an evil character gets the complaints even though someone else entirely created the nasty script tjey read from.

Like that guy in Coronation Street who said he had old women smacking him with handbags in the street, because he played a mean character in the show. Lol.
