Robin Thicke has reportedly admitted that Pharrell Williams wrote "almost every single part" of 'Blurred Lines'.

Documents detailing the pair's depositions during a recent lawsuit have seemingly been acquired by The Hollywood Reporter, in which Thicke also admits to extensive drug use.



Thicke and Williams were taken to court by Marvin Gaye's children over claims they ripped off the late singer's 1977 hit 'Got To Give It Up'.

Thicke has previously claimed to have been heavily involved in the production of 'Blurred Lines', but now appears to have admitted that he was "high on Vicodin and alcohol" while Williams created the song.

Asked if he was present in the studio, he replied: "I was present. Obviously, I sang it. I had to be there."



However, when asked about his involvement in the production, he continued: "To be honest, that's the only part where - I was high on Vicodin and alcohol when I showed up at the studio.

"So my recollection is when we made the song, I thought I wanted - I wanted to be more involved than I actually was by the time, nine months later, it became a huge hit and I wanted credit.

"So I started kind of convincing myself that I was a little more part of it than I was. I wanted some credit for this big hit. But the reality is, is that Pharrell had the beat and he wrote almost every single part of the song."



He reportedly explained that he lied about his involvement in the creation of 'Blurred Lines' as he "thought it would help sell records".

Thicke is also said to have admitted that he "didn't do a sober interview" in 2013 as he "had a drug and alcohol problem for the year".

Meanwhile, Williams explained why he allowed Thicke to take credit for the creation of 'Blurred Lines', when he had little to no involvement.

"This is what happens every day in our industry," he reportedly said during his own deposition. "You know, people are made to look like they have much more authorship in the situation than they actually do. So that's where the embellishment comes in."
