- She's A Great Vocalist, But Slightly Arrogant.
When comparing it to the Robyn of the past she's almost unrecognisable, she is a woman with a great voice and an ear for innovation. With this album, it has some amazing tracks such as "Bum Like You" and "With Every Heartbeat" in these tracks she displays just exactly why we fell in love with her music in the first place. It was original, yet she didn't go insane with trying to sound so different that she actually sounded much the same of other such musicians.
There is a gripe I have with Robyn and this album, however, and that's it spews musical arrogance. She's insisting upon her own talent and saying to the world "Look I'm a great singer and I can rap too" but the response I have to that is no, Robyn you can't rap and it actually makes you sound ridiculous. I've always had a problem with British or other European artists thinking they can rap by using very Americanised words. She's so confident in her apparent rapping abilities that she's managed to destroy what had the potential to be album of the year.
Skipping songs along the same lines as "Konichiwa Bitches" in which she displays her rapping "Talent", this is actually a very good easy listening album.

- It's Good, But It's Arrogant
Now don't get me wrong, I like this album; it's got some really good songs, but I can't help but feel there's a certain arrogance in her music. The main problem I have with the album as a whole is the attempt at giving us a diverse sounding album. We're given such good songs like "Bum Like You" and "Every Heart Beat." They're great, but then they're canceled out by Robyn's attempt at "rapping" in songs like "Konichiwa Bitches" and "Cobrastyle." Listening to her attempt at putting on an American rap style voice to deliver such childish lyrics, make me bow my head in shame.
This isn't right and really destroys what could have been a 5 star album for me. It saddens me to give it 4 but there you go. If you like Robyn's past work, then I promise you will love this. And hell, maybe you'll even enjoy her rapping, I certainly didn't.

WOW! her sound is beyond amazing!!!!great artist and there music is always under appreciated!
Rating: - It's okay but grossly overrated
A few months ago I read that Swedish pop star Robyn had put out a new album. For those who are old enough to remember her, Robyn had a hit "Show Me Love" a decade ago. Back then I didn't think she had a great of a voice, a decade later I still feel that way. I recently acquired a copy of her new self-released, self-titled album. ROBYN follows in the footsteps of Kylie Minogue and Madonna with her brand of electro-pop music. Unlike Kylie's new album, ROBYN is lacks the catchy pop hooks and is more like Madonna's HARD CANDY, ROBYN is filled with weak pop vocals and awful song lyrics. There were a few songs that I did like such as "Bum Like You", "Be Mine!", "With Every Heartbeat", and "Who's That Girl". My personal favorite track has to be "With Every Heartbeat" w/Kleerup. The song is irresistably melodic. I like the inclusion of stringed instruments in this catchy electro-pop song. "Be Mine!" and "Who's That Girl" are two other favorite songs of mine. They have good beats and a good, tight pop hook. Unfortunately those few decent gems are overshadowed by weak, filler tracks which is most of the album. If it was possible, I would have given this album 2.5 stars but I can't. I really fail to see the hype over this album because I do not think that it is THAT good. ROBYN is heavily flawed.
