Robin Thicke Gets Candid About Paula, Going Public With Marital Issues & Explains His Lyrics

[@dariusgoins]

man, every man has fucked up at least once and felt that aching pain in the heart, those dark days and sleepless mind racing with thoughts all over the place saying to yourself damn i fucked this up.. And if you haven't felt that before, one day you will the moment you open up and genuinely care about someone. After you go through it, you know how deal with it if you ever cross that path again in life... Respect and hold ya head.. those of us who has experienced this know the pain...

[@Sam-sh1mp]

You can tell sway has a great time with this interview. They seem like they have a real friendship.

[@ELITEmyfrat]

Leave that man alone he loves his wife and want her back, yah think divorce is always the answer, he wants her back and ain't afraid to show it, nothing wrong with that

[@julieannemichelle]

i truly admire him. it takes a lot of love and no matter how other people feel, this is the love of his life. some people may think he's weak but i think it takes a hell of a lot of courage for him to release this album and to admit he screwed up and he is deeply sorry. i wish him the best. the older you get the deeper love you feel.

[@teammmx]

Lonnie, I think you're the only real man in the comments.

[@teammmx]

***** Well, most of the people telling him not to express his feelings and try to reconcile with his wife are men who are losers in general. So what they say really doesn't count. Lonnie has the right message.

[@KirstynSmith1]

Robin is far from making a foul out of himself or being embarrassing. I believe that he is being very romantic and real not only with himself but for Paula as well. He wants his woman back, and he truly loves her and wants to have her back. I'm just hoping that she listens to the album, talks to him about it, and get back together. Because they have so much love for each other and they are high school sweet hearts. I just hope they can get back together and Paula stop acting like Olivia Pope when Fitz is all lovey to her she gets stubborn. Girl u know you want him back. But hopefully they can work it out and build a stronger relationship

[@danielandres1579]

Finally someone who understands!

[@KirstynSmith1]

I completely understand what Robin is trying to do. All he wants is to have is family back and he most importantly wants Paula back which I am hoping will happen for the both of them.

[@BetterWorld0]

Leave the man alone he's just in love.. Maybe y'all never been in love like he's in love.. He's not making a fool of himself he's being real man..

[@WHYOSHO]

Nah b

[@lizzieceltics]

As a woman I want to thank you for saying that. Finally a man up in here with common sense! My dad is white & bio momma is black, native american & PR & all my uncles on my Momma's side love Robin & give him props for owning up to his mistakes. I'm 26 & they always lookin out for me @ who I date & tell me a real man will make a fool of himself & not give a fuck @ wut his homies or the world thinks @ his actions for you.

[@roter13]

i think paula should make an album called "Restraining Order"

[@TheDarkknight316sr]

nice interview ! I'm married for 15 years and I respect where Robin is coming from he knows he fuck up bad!!! he's trying to correct a bad choice he made. I don't believe that makes him a stalker he has known this woman since he was 16. I hope he continues to fight for the woman he loves. people fail to realize marriage is not all about good times and parties but it's how you rebound from those bad times. From a grown man point of view there's nothing like losing everything feel like your world is turned upside down with nothing to walk on.

[@jusjoshandthemic]

You won't be married for long if you ever get married if that's how you think.lol They have been together since they were teenagers (16), have a child, are best friends, and are married. If all that isn't worth fighting for to you then I don't know what to tell you.

[@ibkristykat]

Joshua McCool are you dissing or commending the original comment from T Weekes Sr. ??? I'm confused.... you both sound like you are on the same page.. and they met when he was 14 and she was 15, and Robin quotes them as beginning to *be together* at 16 or so.... either way,...... I agree with both of you, and I'm female, met my hubby at 19 and I'm 32 now... been married for 6 years out of that time, and man have *we* changed too. I know what it's like to be with someone from an age where you haven't really developed yourself a bunch yet, and you grow up together.... Robin's right in that you really really change. it's not going to be easy any way you cut it, and maybe it *is* time for those 2 to move on and just be good to each other for the kid, and because they truly do love each other no matter how much he did fuck up & fucked around.... doesn't mean he didn't love her. I think it's just changed is all...

[@jusjoshandthemic]

Yes. Someone was saying how Robin was making a fool out of himself and how he was thirsty for doing so much to get Paula back. Something like that.lol

[@jusjoshandthemic]

That's why I'm confused. I think that I may have responded to the wrong comment or the person deleted it.

[@YoungTwam]

He really going through it boy

[@GoBooker]

Sway is truly an inspiration! He's a good soul

[@2lemonades]

Robin is a man that is willing to save his marriage. Men like him are not hard to find. Hope it works out for you and Paula. God bless

[@Dannyn829]

@2:17 , lost the woman of my dreams 2 months ago today totally feel his pain you can see through the laughter, in his eyes i feel that definitely buying this album

[@chronocross85]

Black Tar Cloud lyrics: I thought everyone was gonna eat the chips/ turns out I'm the only one who double dipped ... one heart was more than enough/one body wanted too much one kiss wanted to stay/ one hand always misbehaves one eye looked around the room/ one eye looked inside and finally saw the truth

[@DeeCreative630]

That's my favorite line in the song.

[@ageezle]

anyone who's been in a long term relationship can relate. im talking 10 years plus. i can bet my last dollar the majority of comments don't have that kind of experience. he's going through it. respect that man the fact he's putting it out there. most dudes would never do that due to fear and embarrassment. appreciate the honesty people.

[@orkahn31]

Sway is really great at making the Artist feel truly comfortable. This was a great interview. It felt genuine.

[@djsoulchild]

ROBIN: "Since the day i was born…" SWAY: "...i had 3 arms!" LMAO!!!!

[@Powerfulblkstories]

From my experience and observations, I don't think most women dig men that beg. It looks weak, and women look for strength in men. I'm almost certain that was part of the reason she was attracted in the first place. If I was him no matter how much I love her, I'd summon the strength to walk away and get myself together... Robin, give that woman time to think and make a decision. NO mistakes only lessons bro.

[@Strawberryfearsforever]

Let me speak for myself as a woman. ..I would appreciate a man doing this...even if I didn't go back. It's always a good thing to hear honest truth and feelings from someone you have loved or love. No filter. Relationships are murdered by unspoken words. As an artist I would expect nothing less from him. All women are not the same.

[@Jennifercita]

MsFears you're so right!!

[@norahanne2005]

Who said anything about him being weak? His just saying his feelings in music that doesn't make him weak.Im a women also Heru Duenas your not a women unless your gay witch i doubt. But i like men doing this, kinda lets me know what there feeling. Sooo you cant really speak for a women...

[@shonworld]

Its takes real strength to be honest, put your feelings out there and humble yourself enough to put everything on the line because you love and want your woman back. Even if doesn't look cool to other people. Women love men with real strength.. Weak men think that is weak.

[@nate9754]

Being honest is strong and taking accountability for your actions. But only give a woman so much time to make up her mind and also respect her space, but provide her with options.

[@forhiphopofficial]

Most of you all come off young minded. This is DECADES of a friendship and relationship, Marriage, child....not a weak ass boyfriend/girlfriend situation. But more than that, its a MATURE thing. He's doing what any MAN who made a mistake would do. I salute the guy.

[@keshealm]

Man he sounds so much like his Dad Alan Thicke

[@lucifalucifaa7671]

And why do you think that

[@julieannemichelle]

Lucifa Lucifaa ( :

[@s.copper5644]

I love Robin and Paula and I hope this love grows even more for this. Peace

[@andreaparker8345]

Man that's sad...I pray Robin that you get her back...Hate that you got to keep begging her...But we live and learn...you learn from your mistakes...Praying for you Robin.

[@Alexz_Archivz]

He began talking/sounding like he's drunk or under the influence, but I know it's 11am, Sway sounds drunk, too! ...Hell, Im drinking myself, that clock must be PM. But @18:00 reminded me of Robins skillz!

[@audrafolkes5978]

WOW!! That is why we as whole cant take nothing or no one for granted. Often times, in long term relationships we get too complacent thinking that the other party will always accept our short comings. However, we have to understand that ppl are still human and when our emotions are tied up into a thing we have to be mindful about the other parties who are involved. Stay POSITIVE Robin and remember something that is worth having is worth figthting for.. Peace b!!

[@lucifalucifaa7671]

Robin, this is the reason our precious and loving God gave the world marijuana

[@anonymoustube1]

lmaoo this was too funny i will always love robin. he has such a great personality. people are always hatting because he had his 15 seconds of fame because of blurredlines but he is a great singer and has been doing his thing for a long time time. oo child he can saaaaaangggg

[@i.AmHymn]

This is one of those interviews, no, FAM SESSIONS, for the ages. #GottaRespectThemBOTH Hymn

[@cynaracherrycaryccc]

BTW I do believe the fact they were both working at the same time (which in the past, either one was working or neither) played a factor into the demise. You can't work on shit if the other in another state.

[@Flowofwisdom]

Robin was eying that Vodka rather hard. lol! And it's early too haha! Good interview as always Sway.

[@kasseen]

Damn I'm starting to feel for Robin now man.....smfh...

[@norahanne2005]

His voice oh ma gawwwd O.O

[@LRissa19]

Dang they had to cut the cameras off? Just sat down and listened to the album. So Lock the Door and Black Tar Cloud are eye-opening,

[@nikkig9929]

It's so much deeper than begging his wife to come back. I get it, he is doing the right thing now that he has said it he has to leave it up to her. One he embarrassed her in public so he's apologizing in public, but they have deeper issues and one of his issues is all in his face and in one if the questions he wouldn't answer HE has unresolved issues that hebeeds to handle before she will think about coming back.

[@lastdonuts]

Speaking as a guy, I got no problem with the whole album dedicated to the woman of your life. Call it weak or whatever but I got respect for that. The whole press run though isn't cool though, I get that you got contracts and your agency wants to promo the album, but repeating this stuff 50 times on various stations seems like it'll do more damage than good.

[@CrossSM]

robin thicke and ab soul should do a track together... ab soul's "Closure" and his new stuff really hits the same emotions as Robin Thicke's new album. just an opinion

[@RankedShooter]

Sway is a wild dude! "Ever since I was born, dun-dun-na-na-na, I had 3 arms!" LMAO!!! TMI Sway! But seriously, I hope Robin and get Paula or can get over it because that feeling ain't no joke. Just gotta do better by her, man! Thats all! Never take love for granted!

[@michaelgray1900]

Brilliant interview here.

[@dplucht]

Why the FUCK would sway play the clip of paula talking about him, that's fucked up

[@andrewfrancis6194]

Cameras had to get cut off for him because he heard her speaking. That's serious! #soemotional 8:40. Wow that's love.

[@BestinTHEwOrldIIIII]

Sway is such a nice person

[@lastkings6734]

Anyone else notice him trying to touché heather b at 3:16 ? Lmaoo

[@annetteparker-haynes4510]

Leave it to Sway to end the interview with a chuckle! love me some #swayindamorning!!!

[@futuredoc1988]

That ask Thicke hash tag on twitter was hilarious

[@cabalofdemons]

Paula Patton, Holla at a playa ;)

[@nanapierce1139]

ANNNNNNNNNNNNND....he's drunk

[@windnchgo]

I find it amazing how people were so quick to pile up on Robin Thicke when the separation occurred. The public is so fickle.

[@KLIC99]

i pray he gets his lady/family back in Jesus name!

[@ebiyejombo]

Its hard as fuck, but you got to keep it moving b!

[@honeybuzzard2843]

My prayer is, If Robin & Paula's marriage, bond, Love, is broken If it is not God's "Will" God please fix it.

[@mohammedfotboll]

What did Sway mean when he said "since i had three arms"?

[@beautifulsoultress3078]

Real men recognize real love and when you have a woman or a man that is totally in your eyes and mind your on and only. Fight for him or her. Good luck Robin and If it were ever a time that you need God to interecede this would be the moment.

[@KeV42023]

Robin Thicke is that Niqqa!! Lock the door!!

[@dipo4life79]

damn its real. thats whats up hey aint nothing wrong to get your girl back

[@jonasrich7681]

The realest interviews I every seen man I fell for him this is not fake man he gotta stop the drinkin but fuck it I would do the same shit smoke bud and drinkn im fuckin stressed

[@leonscott543]

People that are always in the spotlight do a GREAT job at hiding their emotion under smiles and alcohol

[@ItsNothingToMartin]

Instead of listening to Take Care..we gotta start saying people bouta go play that Paula

[@kdhb95]

He'll get her back sooner or later cuz I couldn't see either one of them with sumbody else, it would be weird.

[@jacobvargas5316]

Kevin is somewhere with Paula right now.

[@DamianSabre]

"I've had 3 arms" LMAO

[@MarieAmicalola]

Very sweet of them to turn off the cameras for him.

[@devious141]

is sway choking up

[@sterlingskis24]

people sure do have a lot to say an comment about when he's been with this woman for 20+ years an y'all can't even keep a relationship a few years, let alone a family & marriage.. let him handle his business; how he seeks fit.

[@nvrslps]

Here's a question: what will you think of Paula if she never goes back to Robin after all of his public stunts? I think when it comes to everyone outside of the relationship, that's the most important question to ask.

[@iJenny101]

His voice...that's all! :)

[@spikemel2010]

Beautiful

[@sempa312]

Sway wit da shades

[@tbonezful]

I really like him.

[@charlessims2359]

the older he gets the more he starts looking like Allen

[@ryanlintner5207]

more views on this than record sales doe

[@debbietopeze7318]

How do you go out and get into MORE TROUBLE when you're heartbroken.????

[@kaskasrice8770]

Why are yall mad at him at least he was men enough to say he wrong. When usher cheated on chilly you people didnt beat him up this bad

[@StaceyFoxx]

The moment he stops giving attention to her, that's when she'll probably chase him back

[@messagekl]

He needs to lay off the liqueur

[@2lemonades]

Yeah, he is pissy drunk.

[@NdCRants]

I actually feel sorry for this dude. I don't wish him prosperity or nothin' but he's hit rock bottom. And I know he's done some dirty, dishonorable shit, but he's DEFINITELY paying for it. And some.

[@angelzap100]

I think he needs to make friends with Bill W. In just a few of the interviews I've seen that have taken place within the last several weeks he seems to really be hurting for a drink. Even interviews that take place early in the morning. That's a bad sign. I think he's really talented, but I have sensed a deep insecurity in him for years. Recent events have just confirmed my initial thoughts about him.

[@drtake1354]

So Robin practically just cried at the sound of Paula's voice and people still think he's insincere and just trying to make a quick buck? GTFO

[@vanessahenderson9729]

Paula got him crying on his knees for her, okay!

[@WildWildWest30000]

There's nothing wrong with Robin expressing how he feels as an artist. Artists do that, whatever they go through, they write and sing about it. You'd be surprised how many men out there handle break-ups like this in an emotional, expressive way. I don't find it stalkerish or exploiting, its normal and human to act like this when you lose the love of your life. Think about it. Men can cry, beg and let out emotions, you can't always expect them to be macho and handle it. Gtfoh.

[@TrendnTopiczVlog]

love can grow back is my shit

[@veronicagilbert4521]

As a woman I can appreciate him saying, hey I screwed up- I'm willing to tell the world I'm at fault, I love her, I need her. That's awesome but I don't like the acting all drunk ass on interviews about it. Yes I know it's crazy hard to deal with but maybe don't sit there and drinking through these interviews, saying he can't discuss what he does for fun cause it will cause more issues? That's too much info, just say something like .... The drinking helps, the music helps, my son helps.. its just a process.

[@AddedW]

THAT IS selling your soul to me!

[@damedagreat3174]

Sometimes it is just natural and man like to just move on with failed love. Otherwise things began to become repetitive, downright silly and immature. It is evident she wants to be alone minus Robin. I respect love but naturally we have to progress from our experiences and move forward to not tamper with the balance and flow of commonsense.

[@HaydnaterV]

probably had an affair with drake

[@CaapriceTube1]

Loooool, Im a drizzy fan, but damn....dat was funny!

[@CaseyStellar]

***** ***** Gotta leave that liquor alone & I'm detecting a hint of drugs. That leads to the intersection of Nowhere & Nothing.

[@kendolldamon]

When you lose your best friend though....

[@Hypotheticals_Are_Pointless]

Talk about crying me a river

[@ibkristykat]

at 2:00 everyone pay attention: "She respects me and the art i want to create"..... *she doesn't care that he's putting out the truth as much as he has, or as little as he has, so long as it's personal... either way... she doesn't care*..... it's everyone else that seems to care "ewwww he's being too personal. he's making a fool of himself. he's embarrassing her" Ummm obviously he isn't 1) a fool or 2) making it TMI or 3) embarrassing her. She is supportive & respects his art & how he expresses himself. It's TMI *to you* (the people who are hating on the TMI of the music) and *to you* you would be embarrassed. clearly, it's Paula who matters in all this... and she doesn't care. get off yourself.

[@rosebryant542]

He disrespected Paula. I don't see why we would continue to support him or his music.

[@guelphuni]

whats with sway's voice getting all quivery and shaky like he about to cry lol

[@halleluyah7832]

Hahahaa I was thinking the same thing. Sway looked like while he reading the lyrics and sayin to himself, DAMN! THIS NIGGA WRITING ABOUT MY LIFE? hahaha

[@mralanharrison1]

Robin ain't getting no sleep

[@MrBignate323]

Robin was highly faded during this interview

[@xKS616]

LOL > I respect his simping marriage now. > He still needs to stop simping.

[@WorcesterWhitney]

Robin Thicke my favorite white boy!!

[@ExtraDomus]

sway was foul for putting the clip on...

[@Sonyag1]

You don't air your dirty laundry. Period.

[@Jthrillz728]

He got soul lmao

[@Jthrillz728]

Because black people like Sway will do anything they have to do in order to continue having a occupation. This the same dude who congratulated Quentin Tarantino on this very show for using nigga the most times in a movie when that movie Django was release.

[@ExtraDomus]

Black tar cloud? Homeboy on heroin? Lol

[@DeeCreative630]

I love "Black Tar Cloud". I've been listening to it for the past week.

[@888twankie888]

ppl are cruel...i feel bad for any heart ache

[@dougley197]

Robin looks High AF

[@tjduval7550]

man u can see the weight this guy is carrying with him. Alot of pain in his eyes,he looks so fuckin tired. and not to mention he wanted vodka on the morning show lol i can feel him man for real tho i know exactl what hes goin through his mind is prob scattered all over the place right now

[@noshoddy]

damn robin gives off a creep vibe these days. i'll stick with with Evolution of Robin Thicke, and maybe a few one offs. he can keep all the rest.
