For the past 50 years, his sweet voice and staggering talent have made him a beloved star.<\/p>\n

But for Smokey Robinson, whose new album Time Flies When You’re Having Fun<\/em><\/a> will be released August 25, the journey wasn’t always fun\u2014or easy.<\/p>\n

It was 1958 when he helped his friend and fellow Detroit native Berry Gordy found Motown, which in turn shaped popular music for generations to come.<\/p>\n

Over the next few decades, he wrote and recorded dozens of hit songs, including “I Second That Emotion” and “The Tears of a Clown,” for his group, The Miracles, and for other Motown acts.<\/p>\n

He married his high school sweetheart and had three beautiful children. Robinson’s life seemed perfect\u2014until things started to fall apart.<\/p>\n

In 1984, some of Robinson’s friends who were doing cocaine introduced him to the drug. Robinson had grown up in a pretty rough neighborhood, and yet he’d stayed out of trouble thanks to his love of sports, music and God.<\/p>\n

But now, as a man in his 40s, he found himself hooked on drugs.<\/p>\n

For two years, he suffered through his addiction; his health declined, his marriage disintegrated, he withdrew from his friends, and yet none of that mattered, because “all I cared about was the cocaine,” he says.<\/p>\n

One Sunday in 1986, his dear friend Leon Kennedy unexpectedly appeared at Robinson’s apartment. Robinson and Kennedy had a special bond, one that had been cemented nearly a decade earlier.<\/p>\n

In 1977, Robinson was sitting home alone when he heard a voice. “I was upstairs looking at TV and I heard God’s voice say to me, I want you to know my son, Jesus, and I want you to tell your friends<\/em>. I heard it audibly, and I thought somebody was playing a joke on me. I searched my closet. I opened the bedroom door, but nobody was there. I was kind of scared, and I didn’t tell anybody.”<\/p>\n

At the same time, Kennedy, an actor, was in the Philippines making a movie. When he returned, Robinson recalls, “He said, ‘I’m going to tell you something I wouldn’t tell anybody else. About two weeks ago, I was in my hotel bed trying to sleep. And I heard this voice saying, Leon, I want you to know my son and I want you to tell your friends<\/em>.’ That was when we both got saved and started our relationship with Jesus.”<\/p>\n

So when Kennedy arrived at his friend’s apartment that night in May of 1986, a heartsick and physically frail Robinson opened the door. Kennedy prayed for him through the night, and in the morning he took him to a service.<\/p>\n

It was at a storefront church in L.A. called Ablaze Ministries where the preacher, Pastor Jean Perez, called Robinson up to the front. <\/p>\n

She hugged him. She told him that she knew he was coming. She prayed over him. Robinson started to cry, and then he felt a release, and “It was over,” he says. He never did drugs again. “It was instantaneous; I gave it up.”<\/p>\n

Since then, Robinson has traveled to rehabs, schools and churches, speaking about his experience. “I tell everybody I was not cured or medically helped,” says Robinson.<\/p>\n

“I was actually healed. I was healed by God. I tell them, ‘Rehab can help a lot of people. But you have to get in contact with your spiritual self or you’re never going to beat this [addiction].’” <\/p>\n

Robinson knows how blessed he is; not just because he was healed, but also because he’s able to share his musical gifts with the world.<\/p>\n

“Almost every day of my life, I write a part of a song,” he says. “I know it’s a gift from God. That’s what He would have me do, I guess, because I’ve been writing songs since I was 5 years old.”<\/p>\n

That gift is evident on Time Flies When You’re Having Fun<\/em>, which features 10 tracks of original material, as well as a cover of the Norah Jones-popularized “Don’t Know Why”.<\/p>\n

Joss Stone, Carlos Santana and India.Arie lend their vocal support on three of the songs.<\/p>\n

Unlike many other contemporary albums, Time Flies<\/em> was recorded “the old-fashioned way,” says Robinson, “by having all the musicians playing while I was singing.<\/p>\n

“There’s another kind of feeling when you have that, you know? It’s almost like you\u2019re doing a concert in a studio. Everybody feeds off of each other; it’s a fun way to record.”<\/p>\n

The album’s title is a pretty fair description of how Robinson feels about music\u2014and life\u2014these days. He’s been remarried for seven years; he’s recording great new music; and he’s sharing his inspiring story.<\/p>\n

“I know that’s one of the reasons probably I’m still living,” he says. “Because I get the chance to go and spread that message.<\/p>\n

“My life is wonderful. I’m very happy.”<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
