Commercially, I Am the Club Rocker experienced success in selected countries, peaking at number eight in Mexico and within the top 30 in Czech Republic, Belgium and France.
It was certified Gold by the Polish Society of the Phonographic Industry (ZPAV) for selling 10,000 copies in Poland, and was also named one of the best albums of 2011 by Inna's label Roton, alongside Wounded Rhymes (2011) by Lykke Li and Christmas (2011) by Michael Bublé.
[5] The entire writing and producing process for the album was handled by Play & Win at their studios located in Bucharest and Constanţa, Romania, while Juan Magán provided additional production for its opener "Un Momento".
[6][7] The artwork portrays Inna standing in the center of a background with semi-nude models wearing a red-black suit, long boots and a French-like bun.
[17] I Am the Club Rocker marked Inna's first top 50 album in Japan, where it reached its peak position at number 45[18] and sold 7,691 copies as of October 2011.
[20][21] However, Kai Butterweck, a writer for online German magazine Laut, gave I Am the Club Rocker a negative review, commenting that "the scheme is the same in nearly all the songs: galloping offbeat-keyboards first meet with innovation loose beats, ere Inna's thin vocal organ moves the next three or four minutes on almost the same pitch".
[10] Anna Julia Höhr, writing for the news agency Teleschau, similarly criticized the album, saying that the singer's tunes sound "all the same" and evaluating the record as "disappointing".
[31] The follow-up single "Club Rocker" (2011) — featuring the collaboration of American hip hop artist Flo Rida on a remix[32][33] — reached the top 40 in France, Czech Republic, and Slovakia.
[34][35][36] Spanish performer Juan Magán provided collaborative vocals on "Un Momento" (2011),[37] which was released as the third single from the album and charted within the top 10 in Turkey and Slovakia.
[40][41] In the track's accompanying music video, Inna portrayed a woman being verbally and physically abused by her partner in connection with the International Day for the Elimination of Violence against Women observed on 25 November,[42][43] and the singer's Bring the Sun In My Life foundation.
[48][49] For the album track "Put Your Hands Up", an online video was exclusively uploaded onto Inna's YouTube channel in September 2011, featuring moments from her concerts in Europe.
All songs were written and produced by Play & Win members Sebastian Barac, Radu Bolfea and Marcel Botezan, except additional production by Magán on "Un Momento".
