Sabrina Carpenter Announces New Album ‘Man’s Best Friend’

Sabrina Carpenter is set to make waves yet again in the pop music scene with the announcement of her seventh studio album, Man’s Best Friend. The album is scheduled for release on August 29, 2025, through Island Records, following her successful previous album, Short n' Sweet. This new release promises to continue the momentum Carpenter has built, particularly with the recent success of her hit single “Manchild,” a collaboration with esteemed artists Jack Antonoff and Amy Allen. The album is highly anticipated and is expected to solidify Carpenter's standing as a prominent figure in pop music.

Man’s Best Friend marks a significant milestone in Sabrina Carpenter's musical journey. Her last album, Short n’ Sweet, was a breakthrough project, securing Carpenter's position as a pop sensation. The album's lead singles, “Espresso” and “Please Please Please,” became commercial successes, earning her a spot at the top of the Billboard 200 for the first time and landing her several Grammy nominations. Notably, Carpenter won the Grammy Awards for Best Pop Vocal Album and Best Pop Solo Performance, further establishing her expertise in crafting pop hits.

The lead single from Man’s Best Friend, “Manchild,” has proven its mettle by consistently hitting high marks on streaming platforms. It reached the top position on Spotify’s U.S. chart and continues to garner attention with its catchy, summer-friendly vibe. Carpenter describes the song as embodying a blend of humor and introspection, akin to a loving eye roll during a summertime road trip. The track has captured the attention of fans and critics alike, becoming a celebrated anthem for its playful critique of certain societal norms.

Carpenter is currently hitting the stage at various prestigious music festivals, including a recent performance at Primavera Sound in Barcelona. She will also grace the stages at Hyde Park in London and Lollapalooza in Chicago later this summer. These performances are part of Carpenter's continuing Short n’ Sweet tour, which includes an extensive list of dates across North America. This tour is another testament to her expanding influence and appeal in the music industry, drawing large crowds and positive responses wherever she performs.

The new album's strategic release follows a pattern of success Carpenter established with Short n’ Sweet, which included a deluxe edition featuring a collaboration with country legend Dolly Parton. This new project is poised to build on that momentum with additional creative collaborations and a fresh set of tracks that showcase Carpenter's evolution as an artist. Fans and new listeners alike are eagerly awaiting the rest of the tracks on Man’s Best Friend as teasers and sneak peeks continue to build excitement.

Carpenter’s upcoming performances promise to further solidify her repertoire, with shows lined up in major cities like New York, Los Angeles, and Toronto. Her ability to captivate audiences with her live performances is a significant factor in her growing fame, and these events are expected to enhance her fanbase further. With the release of Man’s Best Friend coming soon, it is apparent that Sabrina Carpenter’s creative vitality and commitment to her music continue to thrive, promising exciting prospects for her career.
