Sabrina Carpenter Announces New Single ‘Manchild,’ Set for Release This Thursday
Pop sensation Sabrina Carpenter has thrilled fans with the announcement of her brand-new single, “Manchild,” slated for release this Thursday, June 5, 2025, at 8 p.m. ET. The singer-songwriter shared the exciting news via her social media platforms, sparking a wave of anticipation among her dedicated fanbase. Accompanying the announcement, Carpenter teased, “this one’s about you!!” — a cryptic message that has already ignited speculation about the song’s inspiration and lyrical content.
The announcement comes on the heels of Carpenter’s wildly successful Short n’ Sweet album, which solidified her status as one of pop music’s brightest stars. Known for her sharp lyricism, infectious melodies, and bold artistic evolution, Carpenter continues to captivate audiences with her relatable storytelling and genre-blending sound. “Manchild,” produced by longtime collaborator Jack Antonoff, promises to deliver more of the witty, heartfelt energy that fans have come to expect from the 26-year-old artist.
In a post on X, Carpenter shared a sleek promotional image for the single, featuring a minimalist aesthetic that hints at a fresh sonic direction. Alongside the release date, she revealed that a limited-edition 7-inch vinyl of “Manchild” is available for preorder, delighting collectors and fans eager for a tangible piece of the release. The vinyl announcement has already generated buzz, with fans flooding the comments section of her posts with excitement.
While Carpenter has kept details about “Manchild” under wraps, her playful “this one’s about you!!” caption suggests the track may explore personal or relational themes, possibly with the cheeky, introspective edge that defined hits like “Espresso” and “Please Please Please.” Given Antonoff’s involvement, known for his work with artists like Taylor Swift and Lorde, expectations are high for a polished yet emotionally resonant production.
The timing of the release aligns with Carpenter’s ongoing momentum in 2025. Following a whirlwind year that included chart-topping singles, sold-out tours, and critical acclaim, “Manchild” marks her first new music since Short n’ Sweet dropped in 2024. Fans are eager to see how the single builds on the album’s success, which blended pop, R&B, and indie influences to widespread praise.
Carpenter’s rise to stardom has been marked by her ability to connect with listeners through her candid lyrics and charismatic performances. With “Manchild,” she appears poised to continue that trajectory, offering a fresh chapter in her ever-evolving career. As Thursday approaches, fans are already counting down the hours, ready to stream, dissect, and celebrate what promises to be another standout addition to Carpenter’s discography.
For those looking to secure the exclusive vinyl or stay updated on the release, Carpenter’s official website and social media channels are the go-to sources for the latest information. One thing’s for sure: with “Manchild,” Sabrina Carpenter is ready to keep the pop world spinning.
