Sabrina Carpenter Soars to No. 1 on Billboard’s Pop Airplay Chart

NEW YORK, NY — Sabrina Carpenter has officially achieved a remarkable milestone in her music career by reaching the top of Billboard‘s Pop Airplay chart with her latest single, “Bed Chem.” The track ascended from No. 3 to No. 1, surpassing Gracie Abrams’s hit, “That’s So True.” This accomplishment marks the pinnacle of Carpenter’s journey toward pop superstardom.

The success of “Bed Chem” contributes to the impressive legacy of Carpenter’s album, “Short N’ Sweet,” which is now the fifth album in history to generate at least four No. 1 singles on the Pop Airplay chart. The album has seen each of its four released singles reach the top position, a feat known as a clean sweep.

Prior to “Bed Chem,” Carpenter’s earlier tracks, “Espresso,” “Please Please Please,” and “Taste,” also climbed to the summit of the chart, solidifying her place as a formidable force in the music industry. Her consistent success has garnered her recognition as a recently crowned Grammy winner.

Carpenter’s achievement places her alongside some of pop music’s biggest icons, including Justin Timberlake and Lady Gaga. Timberlake was the first to achieve a similar feat with his album, “FutureSex/LoveSounds,” which produced the hits “SexyBack” and “My Love,” among others. Lady Gaga followed suit with her debut album, “The Fame,” which included chart-toppers like “Just Dance” and “Poker Face.” However, the record for the most No. 1s on the Pop Airplay chart still belongs to Katy Perry, whose groundbreaking album “Teenage Dream” delivered six chart-topping hits.

As Carpenter makes her mark in this elite group of artists, she also breaks a nearly decade-long drought. “Short N’ Sweet” is the first album since Taylor Swift‘s “1989” in 2014-2015 to achieve four or more top singles. During that time, Swift released hits such as “Shake It Off” and “Blank Space,” highlighting the rarity of Carpenter’s success.

Throughout her career, Carpenter has transitioned from a Disney Channel star to a leading name in pop music. Her commitment to her craft and her ability to create chart-topping hits exemplify her growth as an artist. As Carpenter continues to break records, her fans eagerly anticipate what she will accomplish next.
