_+GIVE IT A CHANCE: ROBYN - ROBYN}}

Every now and then I listen to an artist which doesn't really seem to fit in my list of artists I like nowadays, but which have caused such a stir lately, that I can't help to give their album a chance and check it out. All the stellar reviews had me pretty curious, so now finally I decided to give Robyn's fourth, and sure to be her most successful album to date, a spin. It's a mix of pure pop with some R&B and occasionally rap by the singer songwriter. People who love pop will eat this record like cake and after some spins I can totally see why the record is receiving such critically acclaim aside from the non-critics loving the CD and I have to admit I quite enjoy it! M.I.A. is an example of those artists that are already on the edge considering my taste, but I just really happen to love M.I.A. and her crazy mix of styles which makes her sound so refreshing and original. I feel in comparison Robyn lacks that originality, but still it's a very solid pop album. If I like it, I'm sure people who love pop will eat this record like cake and have this CD stuck on repeat in no time (if they haven't already done so).
