Sabrina Carpenter Has Her First No. 1 Album After Close Race With Travis Scott

Sabrina Carpenter has just drop-kicked her way into musical history! The 25-year-old pop sensation has achieved the unthinkable: her very first NUMBER ONE album. And not just any album—oh no, it’s her sixth studio album, fittingly titled Short n Sweet. It’s like she knew she was about to serve the music world a snack-sized masterpiece.

In a shocking twist of fate that probably had Travis Scott’s fans spitting out their morning coffee, Sabrina’s album out-sold Travis’s 2014 mixtape, Days Before Rodeo, by less than a thousand units. Yes, you read that right: Travis dropped a vintage mixtape like a musical time capsule, and Sabrina said, “Cute… but I’ll take that #1 spot, thanks.” According to Billboard (AKA the referee in this epic chart battle), Sabrina clocked in with 362,000 album units, while Travis came just short with 361,000. It’s like the final lap of a Mario Kart race, but with fewer blue shells and more heartbreak.

Overwhelmed with emotion (and probably wondering if this is real life), Sabrina took to Instagram to share her feels: “My first #1 album!!!! Thank you for listening to Short n’ Sweet… couldn’t do any of this without you 💋:’) this feels really special.” Cue the collective aww heard ‘round the world. Is someone cutting onions, or is that just the sound of her loyal fanbase weeping with joy?

But wait—there’s more! Not only did Sabrina ascend to the top of the album chart like a victorious pop princess, but she also decided to throw a party on the singles chart, too. Her new banger “Taste” took a giant leap to number two, because who needs to settle for anything less? Meanwhile, “Please Please Please” and “Espresso”—because obviously, she needs a strong cup of musical caffeine—landed at numbers three and four, respectively. It’s basically like she’s hosting a sleepover at the top of the charts, and only her songs are invited.

In case you weren’t already convinced that Sabrina Carpenter is having the best week ever, all 12 songs from Short n Sweet crashed the Billboard Hot 100 party like a dozen over-caffeinated bridesmaids at a wedding. Here’s how her tracks are currently sitting:

– No. 2: “Taste” (it’s basically a meal at this point)
– No. 3: “Please Please Please” (we’re begging for more hits)
– No. 4: “Espresso” (enough energy to power a small city)
– No. 14: “Bed Chem” (spicy title alert)
– No. 15: “Good Graces” (because Sabrina’s clearly in everyone’s)
– No. 21: “Sharpest Tool” (definitely not in the shed, because it’s on the charts)
– No. 22: “Juno” (not the movie, just as iconic)
– No. 26: “Coincidence” (her chart domination is no coincidence)
– No. 27: “Slim Pickins” (except there’s nothing slim about this success)
– No. 32: “Dumb & Poetic” (she’s giving us Shakespeare meets pop beats)
– No. 35: “Don’t Smile” (too late, we’re all grinning from ear to ear)
– No. 41: “Lie to Girls” (but Sabrina? She’s telling the truth: she’s number one!)
