Sabrina Carpenter released her highly-anticipated fifth full-length album, emails i can’t send!
The 13-track album expresses her various transformations through some of her most personal songwriting yet, giving her audience an intimate look into her personal growth and strength.
On creating the album, Sabrina told Rolling Stone, “I had to fight the urge to do what I normally do, cover it up with confidence, and instead just actually feel those feelings. The tolerance for bullsh*t in the last two years really minimized for me. When you’re younger, it’s a lot easier to let the words and labels that people put on you affect you and become part of who you are.”
“Once you start to rebel against that, it starts to feel a little bit scarier, but also a bit more freeing,” she shared. “That’s why it felt like growing pains the whole time that I was making it.”

In addition to the album, Sabrina released the music video for “because i liked a boy”. She says that the track was inspired by some difficult personal experiences. “So many people probably have dealt with the situation of being labeled something that they’re not. And it’s frustrating because you want to do something about it,” she told Rolling Stone. “But then if you do something, people are mad. If you don’t do something, people are mad, and you’re like, “What’s the way I’m going to feel happy and at peace with myself?” For me, it was just important to tell the story from my perception.”
