Sabrina Carpenter just dropped her newest album, Short ‘n Sweet, and yes, you absolutely need this in your life!
This is studio album number six from the 25-year-old pop sensation, and it’s packed with jams that’ll make your soul do a happy dance. The album includes chart-toppers like “Espresso” (warning: may cause uncontrollable caffeine cravings) and the extremely polite banger, “Please Please Please.” And just when you thought you couldn’t handle more greatness, she dropped her latest single, “Taste”—and trust me, it’s more delicious than any snack in your pantry.
Sabrina’s music career has been climbing faster than a cat chasing a laser pointer. In fact, she’s still eligible to snag a Best New Artist nom at the Grammys. (Yeah, that’s right. Best New Artist — even though she’s been around long enough to have six albums. Apparently, Grammy rules are written in hieroglyphics.) But let’s be real: with this being her breakout year, she might just be walking away with that fancy gramophone trophy. Fingers crossed, Sabrina!
In a recent interview with Apple Music, Sabrina revealed why she named the album Short ‘n Sweet. Spoiler alert: it has nothing to do with her being fun-sized. “It’s more about how my relationships can be as short as a TikTok dance but have the emotional punch of a five-hour Oscar-winning movie,” Sabrina said. “Sometimes I’m sugary sweet, and other times… well, let’s just say I’m the lemon in your iced tea.” She added something deep about albums being a collection of moments and how she’s basically an emotional chameleon—changing over time like a pop music Pokémon.
Anyway, why are you still reading this when you could be listening to Short ‘n Sweet right now? Head over to Spotify, YouTube, or if you’re feeling nostalgic and want to relive 2010, go buy it on iTunes. Your ears will thank you later.
