Thicke, 36, opened up about the album's release in an interview with MTV News: "One minute I'm very excited, the next I'm terribly nervous. Anytime you release your music or you put something out there that you care very deeply about, you know, you're always a little scared. But for the most part, I'm always excited to give people my new music."
Critics have chimed in on the album, with Rolling Stone giving it 4.5 out of 5 stars, noting: "Robin Thicke sings, writes, produces, plays keyboards and even raps a little on his excellent sixth album, but his greatest talent is projecting bonhomie. Thicke is the handsome son of a TV star, but he never incites resentment, because he always seems to be an amiable Joe who's in on the joke of stardom -- the George Clooney of the club jam."
Jim Farber of The New York Daily News gave "Blurred Lines" 4 out of 5 stars, pointing out that Thicke "abandons the bass-heavy R&B for a pop sheen and comes up with a winner."
