Featuring guest vocals from American rapper T.I. and American singer and producer Pharrell, the song was released as the lead single from "Blurred Lines" on March 26, 2013 through Star Trak Recordings.The R&B song was produced by featured guest Pharrell, and was written by him along with Thicke and T.I. Following a few months of pre-release hype, Robin Thicke has set his much-anticipated Blurred Lines LP with a summer due date. The R&B crooner's sixth full-length drops July 30 via Star Trak/Universal Music. As can be expected, the vocalist's Billboard-topping body mover "Blurred Lines" with T.I. and Pharrell kicks off the collection, which also includes previously teased slow jam "4 the Rest of My Life" and the Kendrick Lamar-assisted "Give It 2 U." Judging by the tracklist revealed on Billboard, the 2 Chainz verse from the latter may not appear on the official LP. "This is the least personal album I've ever made by far," he recently told Hot 97 of Blurred Lines. "I really always tried to be a serious, brooding artist and dig deep and talk about my pain and insecurities, and this time I didn't want there to be any of that negativity. There's still some depth on it, but it's much more fun." The single has peaked at #1 on the Billboard Hot R&B/Hip-Hop Songs chart, as well as topping the Billboard R&B Songs chart. It has also become Thickes most successful song on the Billboard Hot 100, being his first to reach #1 (he previously climbed as high as #14 with Lost Without U, back in 2007). The song has been a worldwide hit and reached number #1 in Australia, Canada, New Zealand, Ireland, the Netherlands, the UK, and the United States as well as the top 10 in Belgium, Denmark, France, Iceland, Italy, Portugal and Switzerland. Comparisons have been made between the instrumentation and musical style of "Blurred Lines" and Madonnas 2008 single, "Give It 2 Me", which was also co-written and co-produced by Pharrell Williams. The accompanying video was directed by Diane Martel and released on March 20, 2013. The video depicts Thicke, T.I., and Pharrell standing around while they flirt with scantily clad models (Emily Ratajkowski, Jessi MBengue, and Elle Evans). The video was released in two versions; the first features the models topless, the second features them covered. The unrated version of the video was taken down from YouTube on March 30, 2013, citing violations of the sites terms of service that restricts the uploading of videos containing nudity, particularly if used in a sexual context.
