Thicke moved out on his own at age 17, during his senior year of high school, earning a living and supporting himself as a professional record producer and songwriter. Thicke later joined a hip hop duo with actor Brian Austin Green. It was Thicke's association with McKnight, who Thicke counts as one of his first mentors, that led him to his acquaintance with Jimmy Iovine and helped him to land his first recording contract with Interscope Records at the age of 16. Thicke's peers jokingly nicknamed him "Brian McWhite". Thicke was signed to McKnight's production company "Anyway", a song co-written with Thicke, was featured on McKnight's second album I Remember You. Thicke's demo made its way to R&B singer Brian McKnight, who was impressed enough by Thicke to invite him into the studio to work with him. The demo ultimately was paid for by jazz vocalist Al Jarreau, an uncle of one of the group members. According to Thicke, his father would never pay for Thicke (then in his early teens) and his vocal group, As One, to record a professionally produced demo tape, wanting Robin to focus on his studies and graduate from school before committing to the pursuit of a career in music. Thicke's parents were supportive of his musical inclinations his father helped him to write and structure his first songs. Thicke also appeared in small roleson The Wonder Years, The New Lassie, Just the Ten of Us and several episodes of Growing Pains.
