Sabrina Carpenter is moving quickly. It's only been 14 months since the release of her profile-raising hit "Espresso" and only 10 since she put out that song's Grammy-winning parent album, Short N' Sweet. The deluxe edition dropped a mere four months ago. But last week, ahead of her headlining performance at Primavera Sound, the pop star shared new single "Manchild," which has turned out to be the lead single from another new LP.
Man's Best Friend, which boasts the suggestive cover art above, will be out Aug. 29, almost exactly a year after Short N' Sweet’s release. It has 12 songs, the first of which is "Manchild," which she worked on with Short N' Sweet collaborators Jack Antonoff andAmy Allen. That's all we know about the album thus far, but we're certainly interested in learning more.
Every time I hear people getting worked up about Sabrina Carpenter, I imagine the mayor of a small town declaring, “I say we let the diminutive pervert play her music!” and then everyone cheers and then there’s a big dance number and then the credits roll
