Body Talk Pt. 2 is a sleeker, faster and more pimped out club record. Her beats rival that of M.I.A., she's does Euro glam better than Gaga and out paces Kylie and Britney with relative ease, but Part 2 earns its strips as the counteract to Part 1's bored, experimental, dancefloor craving Robyn, with a pop diva happily at play in the clubs.
"Hang With Me" is the perfect reaction to "Dancing On My Own", the light after the dark. Body Talk Pt. 2 is more unified in polished electro-pop like the standout "Include Me Out" or "Love Kills", the intent of Robyn's second act is focused to "wind it, grind it" as she scoffs on "Criminal Intent". The years best collaboration showcases the Swedish spit-fire declaring, "even the C-I-A knows not to fuck with me" alongside Snoop Dogg on the groove hard "U Should Know Better". The record closes with another acoustic track "Indestructible", which is arguably Robyn's biggest anthem to date, and that's without a proper mix, surely to be found on Body Talk Pt. 3.
Body Talk Pt. 2 is again a thin 8 track record, but if we learned anything from Lady Gaga's Monster Fame, it is a winning formula highlighting the great pop tracks, and still allowing for more experimental moments like "We Dance to the Beat". Robyn is pop's wacked-out girl next door, and we wouldn't have it any other way.
