Sabrina Carpenter Shows Us a Good Time

Taylor Swift will, one day, not be the most famous woman in the world. Pop music will enter a post-Swift twilight. In the darker sky, three new lights will begin to define themselves. Heartbroken Olivia Rodrigo is more like a moon. Genius Chappell Roan is a distant comet. It is Sabrina Carpenter, whose album Man’s Best Friend arrives today, who seems likely to give us the steadiest, solar warmth.
