A few months ago announced the return of the great Robin Thicke with a new album which was to see the light in the last month of July. Unfortunately, the release date was postponed but now we can finally say that the wait is over because “Something else”, the new disc of the singer, will be released in stores from September 30. You can even hear a preview on his Myspace.

This is a disc that sees the collaboration in the production of large pieces like the Neptunes and Jay Pro, over the same Robyn who claimed to have inspired the new work to the great Michael Jackson, even though the first single extract “Magic” hear some time in our radio (and even an advertising spot), does not confirm his words.
