Robyn Disliked Elon Musk “way Before It Was Cool”
Robyn stated she disliked Elon Musk long before it became common sentiment. She revealed this during an appearance on the Las Culturistas podcast, while participating in their “I Don’t Think So Honey” segment.
Robyn explained her dislike for Musk began when he launched a tesla into space with a David Bowie song. She described the act as unnecessarily adding to space debris, questioning why a car needed to be sent into orbit.
She believes space should be governed by democracy, and that commercial companies shouldn’t have the right to exploit natural resources or engage in perhaps perilous stunts. She cited concerns for astronauts on the International Space Station.

She described the creative process for the album as deeply connected to her sensual life,finding a parallel between making music and experiencing profound feeling. She stated her purpose 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.”
