Stephen M. Deusner of "Pitchfork" felt her delivery was Robyn "playfully [turning] Mad Cobra's Jamaican patois into a dance nursery rhyme". "Prefix Magazine" felt that the lyrics of "Cobrastyle" and "Robyn" in general were "wonderfully dumb throughout...Robyn clearly has a fondness for big empty pop that sounds good but says little", feeling that "it takes a hardened soul to withstand the charms of an album" with lyrics such as "Cobrastyle"'s. In a mixed review by for "GayCalgary Magazine", Rob Diaz-Marino found "Cobrastyle" melodically likable, but "felt like something was being held back". Two music videos were produced for "Cobrastyle". The first was released on 25 April 2008 as a viral video, and features Robyn and Perez Hilton (among others) playing strip poker. The second was released on 10 October 2008. The video shows Robyn and other musicians dressed in white and set against a white background. As the band performs, graffiti artists cover the scene in paint.
