I know all my 80s babies must remember Robyn. The white girl with the platinum blonde hair who sang R&B-pop diddies, burst onto the North American scene circa 1996, and released the top 10 hits, Show me Love, Do You Know (What it Takes) & Do you really want me(Show Respect). My sister ended up buying the album and I remember enjoying it; it was a pretty solid effort. Sadly, Robyn’s momentum did not last long as she was disagnosed with Exhaustion and had to return to her native Sweden for some much-needed rest. After her hiatus, she returned with a more Electronica-influenced type of music, one that her record Label RCA, didn’t feel suited her Urban image.*Side Note: A similar situation happened to Pink once she decided to go against the ‘ Urban white girl’ image crafted for her by BabyFace & Antonio ‘L.A’ Reid. Meanwhille, over in Europe, Robyn was beginning to enjoy success with her second album, My Truth which displayed her new sound.
