4.0 out of 5 stars Best Yet To Come..., January 5, 2007

While I am happy to see a release of 'new' Robyn material available in the U.S., this EP can only be a predecessor to a hopefully planned full album (Which will include the Kleerup produced "With Every Heartbeat") or rerelease of 2005's ROBYN. Considered a mixed bag, RAKAMONIE offers selections that prove this Swede's multifaceted talent. With the current flavor in mainstream music, Robyn definately has her place to compete if not surpass the likes of Gwen Stefani and Fergie. Buy it for the outrageousness that is "Konichiwa Bitches" and her take on "Jack U Off." For something more meaty-Pick up the import of ROBYN which features amazing tracks "Who's That Girl" and Crash And Burn Girl."

5.0 out of 5 stars Review of Robyn's Rakamonie - 41/2 stars, August 16, 2007

This review is from: Rakamonie Ep (Audio CD)

Every song on the Rakamonie is what quality is all about. It left me wanting more and each song was incredibly different from the song that played before it. Robyn never stopped being too cool for skool, but when she cut her hair again and released this EP, she reminded us of why she's in a league of her own.

Konichiwa Bitches - same version on original Robyn release, but on this EP it has a little voiceover intro. Robyn sounds about 10 years old on this intro, which is so cute.
Cobrastyle - a cover song and Robyn did it better than the original. This song is mad cool! My fave line is, "Certain little boys I just stop deal with. Tell you they your friend and then bad-mouth again".
Be Mine - stripped down all the way and is better than the fast version. It's absolutely beautiful and her passion is obvious.
List of Demands - fun to hear and sing. Robyn's serious side, remniscent of My Truth. The only problem is Jenny Wilson's horrible voice.
Jack U Off - Robyn's unpredictable here with this Prince cover. To hear such an innocent-sounding voice sing those words ... weirdly wonderful.

I recommend this item for all the true Robyn fans that have been here from the beginning! It's sooooo good to see her back, sharing her music with the USA
