Background and Artistic Evolution
Sabrina Carpenter, the multi-talented singer-songwriter and actress, continues to push artistic boundaries with her upcoming Sabrina Carpenter new album in 2025, titled “Man’s Best Friend.” Following the success of her breakthrough 2022 record, “Emails I Can’t Send,” and her viral hit “Espresso” in 2024, Carpenter solidified her place among pop’s leading voices. Known for her introspective lyrics and bold aesthetic, Sabrina promises an evolved soundscape in this next chapter of her musical journey.
Album Title and Concept
“Man’s Best Friend” is both playful and enigmatic. While at first it seems like a nod to the loyalty of dogs, Carpenter clarified in a recent Rolling Stone interview that the title explores themes of complicated relationships, irony, and empowerment. “It’s about the dynamic between women and the men in their lives,” Sabrina revealed. “Sometimes you’re their best friend, sometimes you’re their true mirror.”
Release Date
The Sabrina Carpenter new album, “Man’s Best Friend”, is set for release on August 16, 2025, under Island Records. The album is available for pre-save across major streaming platforms like Spotify, Apple Music, and Amazon Music.
Tracklist Preview
Though the full tracklist hasn’t officially dropped, Sabrina performed unreleased tracks during her surprise Coachella 2025 set, which fans believe will be featured on the album. Tentative titles include:

Collaborations and Producers
For “Man’s Best Friend,” Carpenter reunites with producer Julian Bunetta (known for work with Niall Horan and One Direction), and adds new collaborators such as Aaron Dessner of The National, who added a more textured, melancholy depth to select tracks.
