Your support makes all the difference.After appearing on millions of people’s Spotify Wrapped, Sabrina Carpenter has shared her own top artists of the year.
Carpenter’s song “Espresso” was the number one most-streamed song of 2024 on Spotify, amassing a staggering 1.6 billion streams globally.
It seems the singer couldn’t get enough of the song either. Carpenter appeared in her own top five artists, admitting in a new interview that she initially thought: “Oh, damn, I can’t post that”
The remaining stars in Carpenter’s top five most listened-to artists included Dolly Parton, ABBA, Kacey Musgraves, and the Bee Gees.
In the same Vogue interview, the singer expressed that she now thinks being one her own artists is a good thing as “it means I f*** with what I do”.
Carpenter recently finished the first leg of her Short and Sweet Tour, selling out every show along the way. “Touring is never easy,” she said, “but it was such a gift. This tour has been so much more fun than any show I’ve ever done.”
At her shows, the singer plays “spin the bottle” to decide on a surprise cover song to play. Two of her top artists from Spotify wrapped have songs that feature in the rotation. Along the tour, she has played ABBA’s “Mamma Mia”, along with "9 to 5" by Dolly Parton.
Despite the runaway success of her hit single “Espresso”, Carpenter failed to break into Spotify’s ”Top 10 Artists Globally”, which was topped by Taylor Swift.
A Nonsense Christmas with Sabrina Carpenter was also recently released. It’s a variety show containing musicals and skits that had fans clamouring for the show’s soundtrack to be released as an album. Nonsense Christmas featured cameos from Shania Twain, Cara Delevingne, and Chappell Roan.

Carpenter said: “I was so lucky that they volunteered their time.” On Shania Twain specifically, she added: “I looked up to her my whole life.”
When asked about her New Year’s resolution Carpenter answered: “Every time someone asks me this, I constantly am just like, ‘Drink more water.’ But it’s definitely not that. Let me get back to you on this one.”
