Who: Swedish pop queen Robyn, who eschewed a career as the Scandinavian Jessica Simpson on her way to becoming Sweden's Gwen Stefani. Ten years after abandoning the spotlight following her hit "Show Me Love," the singer is back with a self-titled album that both indie rock geeks and Top 40 radio listeners can enjoy. Sounds Like: A platinum blonde synthesis of Britney Spears and the Yeah Yeah Yeahs' Karen O, except Swedish. With a team of songwriters and producers that include the Knife, the Teddybears and Kleerup, Robyn explains her new album is "pop music, but it's OK to like it." Singles like "With Every Heartbeat" and "Be Mine!" have already conquered European charts and seem poised to have similar luck here. Vital Stats
