Robin Miriam Carlsson, aka Robyn is a Swedish pop singer, who started her career in music at the age of 13 when the Swedish television show Lilla Sportspegeln used a recording of Robyn's theme song "Du kan alltid bli nummer ett" ("You can always be number one").
Since then, she went on to three albums to date: Robyn Is Here (1995), My Truth (1999) and Don't Stop the Music (2002). She left BMG records in favor of her own label, Konichiwa Records, releasing a self-titled album in 2005.
Christopher was highly amused at the so-called rap song she came back with in 2007 called "Konichiwa Bitches" ... which was really the first time I had heard of the song. Sorry, it's not like I listen to pop music in general.
One of the reason why I liked the song is that it has a lot of lyrics. Like most speech rap songs, it boasts how awesome she is and how she's "gifted all natural".
As much as some people might dismiss her lyrics as stupid, I think they're pretty fun and clever. She makes lots of references, such as Muhammad Ali's fights "The Rumble in the Jungle" (You wanna rumble in my jungle I'll take you on) and "Thrilla in Manila" (You wanna thrilla in my nilla you'll be killer bee stung) or those Mazda car commercials ('Cause my flava is so sweet you'll be zoom, zoom, zoom).
The single had a bunch of remixes, but my favorite is the Klas Ahlund.
