Robyn announces her ninth studio album ‘Sexistential’, releasing March 27th, 2026 globally via Young, alongside new singles “Talk To Me” and “Sexistential” to accompany previously released track “Dopamine.” The album marks her most ecstatic record to date, featuring nine deeply playful pop songs that tie back to her era-defining ‘Body Talk’ trilogy after the club music meditations of 2018’s ‘Honey’. Co-produced mainly with longtime collaborator Klas Åhlund, ‘Sexistential’ arrives emphatic and punchy, defiant about both emotional and biological pleasure, need, and softness. Robyn describes the album saying it should feel “like a spaceship coming through the atmosphere at a really high speed and crash landing. That’s how I felt, like I’d had all these experiences searching too far out into space, and now I’m crashing back into myself.” The album’s title started as an in-joke before she realized it captured everything she wanted to express, adding, “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.”
“Talk To Me,” produced by Klas Åhlund and Oscar Holter and featuring Max Martin as a co-writer (their first collaboration since 2010’s “Time Machine”), delivers pure, unadulterated fun like Robyn trying to write a Prince or Gap Band song underpinned with uber-contemporary production. Robyn says, “I wrote it during the pandemic when there was no way to be physical. I like talkers, that turns me on.” Meanwhile, “Sexistential,” co-written and co-produced with Åhlund, presents possibly the world’s first rap about having one-night stands while 10 weeks pregnant after IVF. Conceived as a riposte to Andre 3000 saying no one would want to hear him rap about his colonoscopy, Robyn decided to put it all on the line, stating, “It was my cue. I have to do this, I have to write a rap about IVF.” A lyric video for “Sexistential” and a music video for “Talk To Me” directed by Casper Sejersen arrive today.
