Robin Thicke had some interesting words about fellow singer Rihanna in the new VIBE. He was asked:

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!?

His answer:

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 supporter, I should be promoting all
music coming out so I get a choice of what I want to buy.
