WATCH: Robyn – U Should Know Better

New video for Body Talk cut from ace Swedish pop star; Robyn: "the song is still banging"

Robyn’s just released a new video for ‘U Should Know Better’, her collaboration with Snoop Dogg from 2010’s Body Talk Pt. 2 album.

Talking about the concept of the video, which sees gender-swapped lookalikes playing Robyn and Snoop milling around London, the singer says: "Decida [Robyn’s choreographer/stylist] came along for a part of the European tour I was doing, we had dinner, drinks and laughs with Decida’s friend Pernilla and we were talking about how much Pernilla looks like Snoop. It was there and then that Decida and I decided to pursue our idea of making a video for ‘U Should Know Better’ where Snoop and I switch gender. All we needed to do was to find a ‘little Robyn’ – a year later we did. Tyler came to a casting we held in London and I felt like we had found our guy right away.

She adds: "Even though ‘U Should Know Better’ was released a couple of years back on Body Talk Pt. 2, I wanted to make this video now anyway because the song is still banging and we had too much fun with this video idea to just sit on it".

Good point, well made – have a watch above.
