Robyn, Sexistential: Spicy Tunez No. 9 (2026) [📷: Brent Faulkner / The Musical Hype; Konichiwa / Young; Rizwan Aslam from Pexels; Clker-Free-Vector-Images, Gordon Johnson from Pixabay]In the ninth edition of Spicy Tunez (2026), we explore the eyebrow-raising, naughty, sexed-up vibes behind “Sexistential” by Robyn. 

Aww, shee-it! Prepare to be shooketh! Spicy Tunez is a column filled with naughty, sometimes controversial, and NSFW songs 👀.  Some songs merely dabble in innuendo and suggestiveness.  Others, however, go whole-hog and embrace a give-no-fucks aesthetic, thrive on sexual endeavors, utter shock value, and sometimes find themselves firmly embroiled in censorship… DUN, DUN, DUN! Spicy Tunez consolidates those Controversial Songs and that piping hot, sensually charged Midnight Heat. In the ninth edition of Spicy Tunez (2026), we explore the eyebrow-raising, naughty, sexed-up vibes behindSexistentialby Robyn.

“Fuck a app, I need me some IRL / I’m on the clock, just give me your ASL…”
Oh, my 😮! Swedish pop singer Robyn (Robin Carlsson) keeps it a buck and sex-positive onSexistential.  Part of keeping it a buck includes the f-bombs that Carlsson lets fly.  It doesn’t stop with just the first two lines of the seventh track from her 2026 comeback album, also titled Sexistential. “Fuck a Plan B, baby, it’s no big deal / I’m already ten weeks in maternity /…In my sweat pants some and some juicy hentai.” Plan B? Hentai? Oh… fuck (appropriate language for p0rn)! Notably, her performance of the single on The Late Show with Stephen Colbert drew a shit-ton of criticism 😬. Robyn wrote and produced “Sexistential” with Klas Åhlund.

Robyn, Sexistential [📷: Konichiwa / Young]“Sexistential” is raw… intentionally.  While the unapologetic, sexed-up lyrics draw controversy, the production and sound of the record are colorful, modern, and minimalist.  The vocals aren’t a powerhouse (an understatement), which is also intentional.  Our 46-year-old star more or less raps about desire.  In the pre-chorus, she asserts, “Adam Driver always did give me a boner.” Adam Driver is a good-looking guy… can’t fault her there 🤷🏾‍♂️.  In the second verse, IVF and having a baby didn’t hold her back from dating or getting some: “I’ve been on Raya while on IVF / PTSD from all the tests / Hormonal rants on IG / Scrolling my feed while breastfeeding.” Perhaps it’s the third verse that’s most eye-popping: “My body’s a spaceship with the ovaries on hyperdrive / Got a whole universe inside that exists between my thighs /… My babymaker’s got twenty in the clip, ready to fire.” Wow! Sexistentialis… something else.  Yep.
