{"product_id":"sabrina-carpenter-singular-act-i","title":"Sabrina Carpenter - Singular: Act I","description":"\u003cp\u003eLong before Espresso, Sabrina Carpenter was sharpening her pop instincts, and Singular: Act I is where that confidence first snaps into focus.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eReleased in 2018 as her third studio album and the first half of a two-part project, it marked the first time she co-wrote every song on a record. Issued through Hollywood Records, it leans into sleek dance-pop and themes of self-empowerment, and it lays the groundwork for the wit and sass that would later make her a global name.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eAlmost Love, the Stargate-produced lead single, rides a pulsing hook about a love that is not quite there yet. Paris floats on shimmering synths and a breezy, daydreaming melody, while Sue Me turns a confident shrug into a strutting, unapologetic anthem that still sounds like a mission statement. Bad Time adds a cooler, moodier shade to the palette.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eAt just eight tracks, the album is tight and endlessly replayable, with glossy production from a crew that includes Oak Felder, Jason Evigan and Johan Carlsson. Carpenter's crisp, playful vocals stay front and centre throughout, and her knack for a cheeky turn of phrase is already fully formed.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eFor fans who came aboard later, this is a fascinating look at the early blueprint, and it pairs neatly with its sequel on the shelf.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Alliance Entertainment","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":57165864599857,"sku":"050087426651","price":29.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0704\/2026\/7313\/files\/Sabrina_Carpenter-Singular_Act_I.jpg?v=1793186104","url":"https:\/\/vinyl.com\/products\/sabrina-carpenter-singular-act-i","provider":"Vinyl.com","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
