Sabrina Carpenter Reveals the ‘Powers Above’ Didn’t Want Her to Release Espresso: ‘There Was a Lot of Questioning’

As a follower of Sabrina Carpenter‘s journey, I can’t help but admire her resilience and unwavering belief in herself. The story of Espresso is a testament to her courage and determination, facing doubts from higher-ups while trusting her instincts. It’s inspiring to see someone so young navigate the challenges of the music industry with grace and tenacity.


On August 6th, pop star Sabrina Carpenter opened up about the challenges she encountered while launching her popular track “Espresso” during a feature article.

The 25-year-old performer and actress initially expressed concerns about releasing it, as there were significant doubts. However, it ultimately turned out to be her first top-five song on the Billboard Hot 100 and her debut number-one in the UK, Ireland, and Australia.

During an interview with Variety, Sabrina Carpenter mentioned that she made the decision to part ways with Espresso on her own, despite facing skepticism from upper management. However, her immediate team stood by her throughout this process.

According to the star of “Work It,” they were the sole advocate for releasing ‘Espresso.’ This wasn’t primarily an issue with their immediate team, but rather involved higher-ups.

She went on to say, “Doubts arose as to whether it was logical. However, they ultimately placed their trust in me, which made me glad, knowing I had faith in myself then.”

Despite my initial doubts, I’m ecstatic that I listened to my instincts and followed the Feather songstress. It turned out to be a fantastic decision in the end!

In June, Carpenter talked to The Rolling Stones following Espresso’s success. She explained that the infectious chorus was inspired by a trip to a crepe restaurant in France.

In addition, Espresso’s success was also attributed to writers Steph Jones and Amy Allen, as well as producer Julian Bunetta. She mentioned to the media outlet, “That’s how those borderline hilarious-yet-idiotic lyrics come about. I’ve become particularly adept at working with the people I cherish when it comes to making music.”

Collaborating with individuals she finds pleasant to work with results in composing catchy, distinctive lyrics, as stated by Carpenter.

After achieving success, the artist known as Nonsense revealed through a Twitter post that they would be collaborating with Van Leeuwen for the creation of an espresso-infused ice cream. This collaboration was launched on June 28th.

Sabrina Carpenter’s sixth studio album titled Short n’ Sweet shall be released on August 23rd.
