The pop star looks back on the record that changed everything three years ago.
Celebrating Three Years of Emails I Can’t Send
Sabrina Carpenter is celebrating a major milestone: the three-year anniversary of her breakthrough album, Emails I Can’t Send. Released on July 15, 2022, the record marked a turning point for the pop star, opening the door to some of the biggest moments of her career.
On Instagram, Carpenter shared a heartfelt message alongside the album’s cover: “3 years of my dear emails. This album means so much to me and was the gateway to many special moments I couldn’t see ahead. I will never take this chapter for granted and what it taught me and how much closer it brought me to each and every one of you.”
She continued, thanking fans: “Thanks to those of you who sing along. I love you forever!”
The Album That Changed Everything
Emails I Can’t Send became a defining moment for Carpenter, peaking at No. 23 on the Billboard 200 and delivering her first Billboard Hot 100 hits with “Nonsense” and “Feather.” Reflecting on the release at the time, she wrote, “I kind of had to unlearn myself and learn myself again in order to make this album. It’s the one I’m most proud of thus far in my life. It’s the one I hope you listen to and feel like we were hanging and confiding in each other for an hour.” The success of the album was amplified by Carpenter’s tour in support of the project, which included opening for Taylor Swift’s record-breaking Eras Tour.
A New Era Ahead
After Emails, Carpenter’s star only rose higher. Her follow-up album, Short n’ Sweet, became her first No. 1 on the Billboard 200 and featured massive hits like “Espresso,” “Please Please Please,” and “Taste,” ultimately earning her her first Grammy wins. Now, the hitmaker is preparing to release her seventh album, Man’s Best Friend, in August, led by the chart-topping single “Manchild.”
