After debuting two new tracks from her hotly-anticipated new album on New Year’s Eve, Robyn has finally shared details of her ninth LP.
Due March 27, ‘Sexistential’ serves as the follow-up to the Swedish pop icon’s 2018 offering ‘Honey’ and includes her recent comeback single ‘Dopamine‘.
Also included is the dance-pop anthem ‘Talk To Me’ and title song ‘Sexistential’, which is described as “possibly the world’s first rap about having one-night stands while 10 weeks pregnant after IVF”.
Robyn says: “It was my cue. I have to do this, I have to write a rap about IVF.”
On the former, which is a collaboration with Max Martin – their first since 2010’s ‘Time Machine’ – the ‘Dancing On My Own’ singer adds: “I wrote it during the pandemic when there was no way to be physical. I like talkers, that turns me on.”
Co-produced with longtime collaborator Klas Åhlund, Robyn elaborates on the album: “Exploring my sensual life is the same feeling as when I make a good song.
“It’s such a beautiful kind of sensitive vibration that takes so much work to keep afloat. I feel like the purpose of my life is to stay horny – it doesn’t even have to be about sex, but it’s feeling sensual and attracted to things that I enjoy, and not letting anything take over that.”
‘Sexistential’ is out on March 27 and available to pre-order from Amazon, HMV, Rough Trade, Townsend and more.
