      *Robin Thicke, son of actor Alan Thicke and singer/soap star Gloria Loring, has just become the first white man since George Michael to reach the top of Billboard’s R&B chart, thanks to his current smash hit, “Lost Without U.”

      The single, from his gold-certified sophomore solo album “The Evolution of Robin Thicke,” is also the most requested video at MTV and VH1, his label states. “Evolution,” coincidentally, is the No. 1 album on Billboard's R&B Top 100 Albums chart and No. 6 on the Top 200 Albums chart.

      “Lost Without U” and several other tracks from the album are streaming at Thicke's MySpace page, http://myspace.com/robinthicke. The video for "Lost Without U" is streaming at his Web site, www.robinthicke.com. "The Evolution" is nominated for a Soul Train Award for Best Soul/R&B Album, and the singer will be on hand to perform at the March 10 ceremony.

      Meanwhile, Thicke, who's married to actress Paula Patton,  just launched a tour behind the album at the NBA All-Star game last weekend in Las Vegas. He’ll touch down in Annapolis, MD and Alexandria, VA this weekend before continuing his trek scheduled through March 21.
