DJ Cassidy feat Robin Thicke & Jessie J - Calling All Hearts

After the massive success of Daft Punk's "Get Lucky", Duke Dumont's "Need U 100%" and Storm Queen's "Look Right Through" (as remixed by MK) throughout the world, there has been a recent revival of the Disco sound. DJ Cassidy's new project on Columbia records involved nearly a dozen major players in the music industry, fusing together sounds of the past and present. Robin Thicke and Jessie J sound perfectly at home on this stunning Disco number, complementing each other so well. This has all the makings of a club hit and a possible crossover hit.

Robin Thicke - Go Stupid 4 U

Based on several online articles, this brand new song is planned as the followup single to "Blurred Lines" in the U.S. This song is also on the sexual side as have some of the other album tracks. The "get stupid, get stupid" chant straight out of Madonna's 2008 club hit "Give It 2 Me" feels totally out of place after the choruses is an unfortunate interruption.

Robin Thicke feat Kendrick Lamar - Give It 2 U

This is the followup to the number one smash hit "Blurred Lines." Produced by Dr. Luke, this toe-tapping number is a bit of a departure from the mostly R&B and Hip Hop artist. This may be a tad jarring for fans of his traditional music. Hot artist of the moment Kendrick Lamar is featured on the song delivering a good verse.

Robin Thicke feat T.I. & Pharrell Williams - Blurred Lines

The R&B crooner is back with a new party jam enlisting the help of T.I. and Pharrell Williams. The funky song is incredibly sexy and playful. This song has that je ne sais quoi that George Michael's late 80s/early 90s material had. Robin sounds amazing and rapper T.I. complements him with his verse. Pharrell's backing vocals and ad libs add further atmosphere to the frenetic track. This could be a potential dancefloor smash without the aid of remixes though this could be quite the floorfiller with the right old school House mix. This should be a smash into the Summer months.

Robin Thicke - Love After War

This is the lead single off of his forthcoming album of the same name. The song is very smooth and sensual from Robin's delivery to the production. The midtempo R&B production with some Latin drums is just so hypnotic as is the title refrain throughout. The relatable lyrics are so poetic. Everything about this song is simply perfect, and is a great preview of things to come with the new album.
