This album, supported by the US Pop Airplay top-ten singles "Nonsense" and "Feather," showcased her evolving sound and deeper lyrical content.
In 2024, Sabrina's mainstream prominence soared as she opened for Taylor Swift on the Eras Tour, exposing her to a wider audience. Her upcoming album, Short n' Sweet (2024), is highly anticipated, with the singles "Espresso" and "Please Please Please" topping the Billboard Global 200, and the latter becoming her first number-one song in the US.
