  • Sabrina is our little pop princess savior 🫶 If you don’t know who she is, you will soon! I have a huge appreciation for her Emails I Can’t Send album, became obsessed after seeing videos of her on Taylor Swift’s Era’s Tour, and the deal was sealed with her recent Coachella set. Her visuals, aesthetic, and style are everything - not to mention her music is beautiful too. I am so excited that we are finally recognizing the popstar she is and will continue to become!

      I think so too. I’ve been listening to her since “eyes wide open”, but I feel like her embracing this classy, “old Hollywood”, 1950s-60s glamour is really gonna set her apart. Everyone loves how feminine she presents, but most female pop artists present pretty feminine. They just look like 21st century teenage girls. I don’t see any other pop stars leaning into “old Hollywood”. It’s going to be iconic.

    Agree with everything in this video except the part where she's not a more notable vocalist. Her albums lately haven't showcased just how talented she is vocally. One of my favorite videos of her's is her singing 'Sue Me' acapella. You can really see the true extent of her talent there and that was 5 years ago. I love that she's really coming into her own now and finding a brand that works so well for her and I hope she makes songs in the future to show off just how talented a vocalist she actually is.

    People are going to hate me for this comparison but its a fact and it must be said. Sabrina reminds to much of Marylin Monroe. The girly, hyper feminine aesthetic, bows and ribbons, silk, sexy, glamourous, old hollywood, blonde bombshell, curled hair, glitter all of it is so girls and feminine and just reminds me of Monroe so much. I love this aesthetic and hope that Sabrina becomes this huge name that she deserves because i truly believe that she is THE pop star of this generation.

    • @Captain_Effy

      Okay, you are NOT alone in saying this, I've been saying this too. It's the whole "im the homewrecker, gentlemen prefer blondes" type of aesthetic that she started shifting too ever since the scandal with you know who. It's too early to call her a sex symbol, but the way I keep seeing her magazines spreads and instagram and ALL I see is playboy bunny and Bridgette Bardot (dare I say...anna nicole smith?). Like I just feel that we haven't had a TRUE blonde bomshell in a long time (remember the victoria secret era with Cadence and all the Y2K celebs). She even revealed in an interview she is copying these styles and emulating these cute outfits. Just one big push into that direction and I could totally see her fully embody the sweet, yet sexy Marilyn Monroe aesthetic, since Marilyn despite her status, was a total sweetheart and Sabrina is very magnetic and sweet as well.

      She’s just leaning much more heavily into the “old Hollywood” glamorous aesthetic now, and I think it’s suits her so well. That’s what’s going to make her iconic in a whole new way from now on.

    “She isn’t really a vocal powerhouse” I was so confused but then you mentioned you’ve only listened to Emails I can’t Send and it made sense to me why you think that. Sabrina definitely one of THE vocalist of this up coming generation of singers. I HIGHLY recommend checking out her previous album “Singular act II” which is more rnb-pop album, I also recommend checking out “Honeymoon Fades”, which in my opinion, is her best song off her discography. I think in that single and album really shows off her vocals!

Her voice sounded great, and even though people were still arriving/getting to their seats/etc, you could see that everyone was looking at her.

I love eics but i’m not really a sad girl and singular just is perfection in my eyes. totally recommend it. My personal faves aren’t that popular but carpenters love exhale, the vocals on diamonds are forever and sue me are everything, and we get some gorgeous falsetto on bad time. But the whole albums (albums?) are stunning.
    skin i know you mentioned but she has really pretty vocals in that too, i think she’s just a great vocalist
    OH and honeymoon fades is so gorgeous it’s not even funny, that quick spoken verse two and her impeccable vocals in the chorus. A fan favourite and for good reason
    As a carpenter, when you put sabrina all the way to the right i was really shocked actually, but i get you’re a casual fan
    edit: oh my god i forgot fruitcake christmas ep!! “buy me presents” and “is it new years yet?” are BOPS and she sounds gorgeous on slower tracks like “santa doesn’t know you like i do”

    She’s stereotypically a pop singer (and I mean that in a positive way). She holds the traits of previous big stars like Mariah Carey, Britney Spears, etc. A lot of her peers in her generation lack performance abilities or production. I feel like many people continue to judge her and say her music isn’t versatile (or good) but she truly has a pop star package. She can sing, perform, and create a unique identity around her music. I think people just have a certain image of her based on previous scandals which is messed up because what does that have to do with her music. She has such an amazing catalog if people tried to listen to it. I’m so happy she is finally get her recognition, and even if it took a while, you can tell she has worked so hard to get to this point. I’m rooting for her!!

There is nothing unique about her to the public outside of her fanbase sorry. She just doesn't have that wow factor and her music is pretty generic. Comparing her to incredibly talented artists such as Mariah and Britney is an insult. She holds none of their traits. Her stage presence is good but her songs are generic. Most of her peers are actually more talented than she is thats why they have more success especially international success, but she lacks that. The only reason she is in the spotlight is because all the other pop divas stepped out including Ariana who btw she loves copying and "Ariana 2.0" is the biggest joke ive heard from a fan. There is no comparison, Ariana is a legend and an actual vocal powerhouse. She will never take her place and she will never take the title of "pop princess" that my friend will forever be Britney! Lets face it Sabrina Carpenter isn't pop princess material and her status proves it. She should be bigger than she is but she's not because her music is mediocre and boring and most importantly she does not have the "IT Factor". Something every main pop girl has. Its why she's not a huge success like all the other pop divas before her, and that's the reality. I'm not saying shes bad but shes nowhere near the best like the other main pop girlies. Nothing personal but continue listening and being a fan, nothing wrong with that.

      @@persianxprincess after reading your comment, i felt like you deserved more than a shady "too long didn't read" response. so much to unpack here but i'm gonna try and do it anyway :)
      no one is saying sabrina will overtake britney/mariah/ariana/etc. when people compliment her and compare her to other talented artists, they're just admiring her stage presence/voice. also, "pop princess" is a term that is ever changing. it doesn't need to belong to one person.
      a ton of external factors have impacted sabrina's career. she's been releasing music since she was a young teen, but her last label offered little to no promo and focus on her growth. she was a disney kid when disney channel was becoming less relevant in pop culture.
      i do understand where you're coming from with the generic sounding music. i think 2020 onward has held a lot of growth for sabrina, both personally and as an artist. emails i can't send isn't perfect, but it's a good start in the right direction. espresso is more generic but it still has done well in establishing the sound and marketing angle she wants to do moving forward.
      if sabrina has no semblance of an "it factor," then why were her nonsense outros going viral before taylor swift invited her to open for the eras tour? why are people suddenly copying her makeup look and marketed style? a part of it does come from the recent excitement around anything taylor and a growing desire to hop onto a trend, but then why aren't other young openers associated with taylor going viral like this? (this is no shade to any of them, they are all so talented and i enjoy hearing their work!)
      none of this is an attack against you or your views on this artist, i just saw your comment and wanted to share some of my own thoughts. have a great week!

    It fustrates me so much when I read people say "she hasn't found her sound yet" "she is finally finding her sound" when all of her recent hits "Nonsense" "Feather" and "Espresso" sound like they could be in Singular Act 1 and 2.
    She already has found her sound years ago! But people were too busy sleeping on her.
    Whenever I hear someone jamming to Sabrina's new music, I always recommend them Singular Act 1 and 2. I think THAT was her pop perfection era with absolutely everything the vocals, live performances, tour, songs, everythingg! (If onlyy, if only she wasn't stuck in that Dipshit label and it got the promotion it deserved) I think I'm single handedly promoting it more than Hollywood records ever did.
    Also the ONLY complain I have with the Singular Act songs is why are they so short 😭😭😭

    sabrina has an undeniable chokehold on popculture since she went on her emails i can‘t send tour. i‘m not a fan of her, i enjoy her singles but i don‘t listen to her actively but she is a fantastic performer. she‘s really good at the bimbo thing and i love how unapologetically confident she is and i think that makes her a great role model for girls and women everywhere. i can‘t stop thinking about her coachella nonsense outro where she says ‚see you back here when i headline‘, that is the level of confidence i aspire to. also love how she‘s just chilling in a chair in her jesus was a carpenter shirt, iconic.

    yesssss omg more of these videos! one thing i think will go a little under-appreciated is just how good the directing & editing is on her newer music videos, you can clearly tell everyone on board with the project understood the assignment; not a single moment, person or visual appears out of place. espresso is SO impressive & would fit so so perfectly in a movie imo (especially w her self-aware sense of humour). by herself she’s charismatic and easy to root for, but with the art being as good as it is she’s making herself unforgettable and I LOVE ITTT

    The latest album Emails I Can’t Send fwd: is marvelous, with her finally getting her full creative & personal freedom (she had to “unlearn how to write songs to learn to write them her-way”.
