Sabrina Carpenter’s highly anticipated album, Short n’ Sweet, made its official debut on Friday. The project includes previously released singles such as “Espresso” and her chart-topping track “Please Please Please” on the Billboard Hot 100. Additionally, she unveiled the music video for “Taste,” featuring actress Jenna Ortega.
Following the success of 2021’s Emails I Can’t Send, which included hits like “Nonsense,” “Feather,” and “Because I Liked a Boy,” Short n’ Sweet reached No. 23 on the Billboard 200 albums chart, marking Carpenter’s highest-charting album to date.
Carpenter explained the inspiration behind Short n’ Sweet, stating, “I called it Short n’ Sweet for multiple reasons. It was not because I’m vertically challenged. It was really like I thought about some of these relationships and how some of them were the shortest I’ve ever had and they affected me the most.” She shared these insights with Apple Music’s Zane Lowe.
Reflecting on personal growth, Carpenter added, “I think about the way that I respond to situations, and sometimes it is very nice and sometimes it’s not very nice. And again, the thing about albums, projects, writing songs, it’s all moments. So harder for other people to understand that when they’re listening to something that’s going to take them through maybe a lot of years, hopefully a lot of years, is that I’m not the same person that I was when I wrote that.”
In this week’s poll, Coldplay’s collaboration with Little Simz, Burna Boy, Elyanna, and TINI for “We Pray” closely followed Carpenter, garnering 30% of the vote. Coldplay is gearing up for the release of their 10th studio album, Moon Music, scheduled for release on Oct. 4.
