There have been numerous hints across social media that have pointed toward the collaboration, such as Patrick Berger - the producer behind Charli xcx’s 2019 album ‘Charli’ and Robyn’s 2010 hit ‘Dancing on my Own’ - sharing a photo of himself and the two pop stars in the studio on Instagramin February.

Charli briefly shared the history behind her and Robyn’s longstanding friendship and collaborative efforts after nominating her as a “hero” in 2020 for V Magazine. Charli reflected on the wise words offered to her whilst she was “feeling really nervous” by the Swedish singer-songwriter, that “stuck with [her] forever”.

Robyn reportedly told her: “Don’t worry about what anyone thinks of you. We’ll have fun together, being ourselves.”

Here’s hoping for some collaborative magic from the duo.
