Composition

Scandipop describes the track as distinctive for its seamless blending of two genres. At its core, it is a classic R&B song, but it has been produced as an electro track—and done exceptionally well. The review notes that it essentially sounds like both a 2014 Robyn song and a 1998 Robyn song at the same time. ^[4]

Music video

A music video for "Rooftop" was released on 26 September 2014, directed by Måns Nyman. ^[5]
