His album sales are like 600K in the US which is pretty impressive, & his songs have gotten a ton of radio exposure, especially on AC. His singles don't flop at all but they don't sell how I would expect them to. His label is very proactive & does discounts/promo where needed.

His popularity will explode sooner or later it's just a matter of when. I am bit hard on his singles performance because he has the potential to release singles that sell 3, 4, or 5+s of millions & make major impact. Especially later in his career. Touring with Swift was the perfect move, they're a good musical match. The + singles will be solid platinum/2x certified singles in the end, he'll just continue to build on this.

The issue with appealing to the AC crowd is really a double-edged sword. That consumer group buys more albums but doesn't buy singles as readily.

and the video for the song is gaining about 500K-700K+ views a day since his death. I think the song is going to debut huge next week.

He performed on The Voice and Ellen last week, but it's still in the Top 10 The top 10 exposure + the well-timed promo really helped the song.


@ Robin Thicke (a straight up urban/R&B artist) getting such a worldwide hit.

MORE LINES ON "BLURRED LINES": Robin Thicke's "Blurred Lines" featuring Pharrell and T.I., fresh off appearances on The Voice and Ellen, hit #1 on the iTunes singles chart. The Star Trak/Interscope artist's song has reached this summit on the corresponding charts in 11 other countries as well; its international presence has been boosted by TV exposure on The Voice in Italy and Australia, Graham Norton, Germany's Next Top Model and Le Grand Journal, not to mention a global Beats headphone campaign and the steamy video. (5/17p)

It would have been embarrassing if he hadn't after putting Gaga and Katy to shame with that promo.

At least he finally got his first hit.

You're acting like he's a popular mainstream artist

Up until this song, Robin wasn't known to mainstream audiences, and his main demographic mainly was comprised of black people (it still is).

If the song didn't do well it wouldn't have been a failure because it's not like any of his other singles are #1 smashes anyway. No one would've cared.

And he didn't even perform on Graham Norton or Le Grand Journal. He has only performed the song on The Voice and Ellen.

Any news on the direction his album will go in?
If he puts out a slighly poppier record this time around he could REALLY break through globally, i think. But for getting a global R&B hit out of this. Incredible

Robin will perform on The Voice of Italy tonight, he still has to. The song has been a hit for several weeks already though here.

[GreasyBruce]

Blurred Lines hasn't had promo on Graham Norton, wtf

It's becoming a WW smash because it's a really fun, catchy song.

Sometimes you get so obsessed and like, psycho. I think you need help, u scare the **** out of me

Anyway, the song is a smash because it's easily the video of the year, it's funny and you can dance to it. Song of the summer! And out-selling songs with 180 million airplay on radio so easily too. Some people should ask how he makes it without ridiculous airplay

Blurred Lines coming for the #1 once again



T.I. gives me so much life in the video

Congrats to Zach, but his song is only on top because people feel bad for him. If he didn't pass away, the song would be lingering in the 50s/60s.
