Robin Thicke criticizes “fuzzy lines” with a “grain of salt”

Since the release of “Blurred Lines” in 2013, Robin thicke and Pharrell Williams have faced controversy for all kinds of reasons.

In 2015, the two musicians were ordered to award posthumously Marvin Gaye credit for writing the song, after a federal jury found them responsible for the copyright infringement.

The songwriting process was also a subject of debate, with Robin claiming that he played a significant role in the creation of the single, which he later admitted was wrong.

According to The Hollywood Reporter, he confessed to lying about his contributions to the song during the copyright infringement lawsuit, saying, “I was jealous and wanted some of the credit… I tried to take it. merit it later because [Williams] wrote it all pretty much on his own and I was envious of it. “

Then there are the controversial lyrics, which have banned the song from official events at more than 20 UK universities. Critics of the song argued that the lyrics encourage a culture of date rape, citing lines such as “But you’re a good girl / The way you catch me / You must want to be mean.”
