Robin Talks About Rihanna to "Vibe"

Here’s a quote that Robin Thicke made about Rihanna to Vibe magazine recently:

Vibe: You play instruments, you sing live. What’s your reaction to the artists out there, who don’t sing live—who are more of a product?

Robin: They are entertainers. There are people who are about precision and entertainment; there are people who are about emoting and expressing. Sometimes they are people who do both, but I think there is room for everybody. I want to watch Rihanna sing her songs—I don’t care! [Laughs] I want to watch and I want to listen. She ain’t got to sound like Mary J. all the time. Who does? The point is as media and critics you want to say that shouldn’t be out there, but as fans you want more music, you want more options. As a fan, I should be promoting all music coming out so I get a choice of what I want to buy.
I see, hmm. Well all I have to say is, “Miss Paula Patton, GET YOUR MAN!”
