An accomplished songwriter, Thicke has worked with R&B and pop artists including Mya, Usher, Christina Aguilera, Marc Anthony and recently on Ashanti’s latest project ‘The Declaration.’

On “Magic,” the uptempo first single from “Something Else,” Thicke expands on his sultry, classic R&B sound reminiscent of a “feel good” Marvin Gaye or Isaac Hayes record where Thicke explains “sometimes you feel no hope, I’ve been there across that lonely road.” Celebrating with horns, horns and more horns he croons about that perfect relationship on “Magic” saying – “I can make it alright, I can wake up in paradise. We got that magic girl.”
