- Sabrina Carpenter's album Man's Best Friend is projected to sell around 300,000 units in its first week.
- The lead single 'Manchild' is currently climbing the charts, indicating a positive anticipation.
- The album's success could establish Carpenter as a dominant artist in the industry.
In anticipation of her upcoming album launch, Sabrina Carpenter's project, titled Man's Best Friend, is expected to be highly successful, with projections indicating an opening of approximately 300,000 units. The album is set to be released on August 29, 2025, and the excitement surrounding it is palpable, especially following the success of her previous album, Short n’ Sweet, which won the Grammy for Best Pop Vocal Album and featured popular tracks like 'Espresso,' 'Please Please Please,' and 'Taste.' Given this momentum, fans are eagerly waiting to see how well her new material will perform. Currently, Sabrina Carpenter's single from the album, titled 'Manchild,' is climbing the charts, recently reaching No. 9 on Billboard's Radio Songs chart and No. 7 on the Adult Pop Airplay list. The single's success sets a positive tone for the album release, indicating that the lead track resonates well with audiences. Many artists nowadays choose to release multiple singles leading up to their albums in order to build hype, but Carpenter is deviating from that strategy, having only released 'Manchild' so far. The predicted sales numbers for Man's Best Friend would likely make it her second No. 1 on the Billboard 200 chart. To put the album's performance into perspective, Morgan Wallen's I’m the Problem currently leads the chart with 126,000 equivalent units sold, and Sabrina Carpenter is expected to surpass Playboi Carti's Music, which debuted with 298,000 equivalent units. This potential success underlines Carpenter’s rise as a prominent figure in the music industry, significantly boosted by her Grammy win the previous year. As the release date approaches, additional excitement includes speculation around whether Carpenter would drop another single prior to the album launch. However, since she has not released a second single as of August 25, it looks as though fans will need to wait for the full album to experience more of her new music. This strategic approach might enhance the overall impact of the album's debut, allowing Man's Best Friend to attract even more attention upon its release.
