Robin Thicke Has Always Been The Bomb | I’m A Be Alright is Still Tight

NOT James Taylor -- Robin Thicke Before he became a BET & MTV superstar, Robin Thicke was a singer/songwriter from a famous family who, in spite of his connections in Hollywood, was struggling to make his soulful jams in relative obscurity. He was always funky & this track proves it for me. I remember the first time I heard this song, “I’m A Be Alright” was shown (billed only as Thicke) on a commercial for something in around 2002 or 2003 (was it Tommy Hilfiger?), and then it disappeared into the ether just as quickly. By the time his criminally-overlooked album A Beautiful World came out in 2003, I must’ve forgotten about the song and, unfortunately, it didn’t do for Robin Thicke what he deserved. Good thing people finally figured out what A Beautiful World proved — the man got so much soul. I put this song on when I need to be reminded that it’s not nearly as bad as I think it is. I’m a be alright. You will too.
