Taylor Swift has a 'rival', the identity of the GenZ girl who won 6 Grammy 2025 nominations is causing a stir

Considered the most prominent phenomenon of the summer of 2024 with the hit Espresso, Sabrina Carpenter became one of the bright candidates for the 2025 Grammy Awards.

Born in 1999, famous from Disney TV shows, Sabrina Carpenter made 6 albums and made a global splash with Short n' Sweet - one of the most prominent and attractive albums of summer 2024.

Sabrina Carpenter received the news of her six Grammy nominations while on tour. "I'd be lying if I said I hadn't dreamed of this day my entire life, so I'm overwhelmed with gratitude!" - the singer shared her feelings when hearing her name called out for the first time in the prestigious music award nomination categories.

Sabrina Carpenter has been nominated for all four main categories including: Best New Artist, Album, Record and Song of the Year. If she can win the quadruple, she will be the one to continue the miracle that Billie Eilish created in 2020. Both female singers are still very young and bring outstanding colors and personalities, making a difference in the world music scene. Sabrina Carpenter is also one of the idols who has influence on young people in terms of fashion and style.

In addition to the four main categories above, Sabrina Carpenter also received two nominations in pop music-specific categories with the album Short n' Sweet and the hit song Espresso. The Gen Z singer's mark does not stop there. She is the only artist nominated this year in both Record of the Year and Song of the Year categories with two different songs, Espresso and Please Please Please.

Sabrina Carpenter's six Grammy nominations put her on par with her idol, Taylor Swift. Sabrina Carpenter herself has also participated in The Eras Tour as an opening act.

The 2025 Grammy nominations show a dominance of female singers. Beyoncé leads the pack with 11 nominations for her album Cowboy Carter, but the power of young pop breakthroughs like Sabrina Carpenter and Chappell Roan is drawing special attention. In addition, some artists are also surprisingly empty-handed, such as Ariana Grande, right before the release of the musical Wicked.

Most likely, at the 2025 Grammy Awards, the Album of the Year category will not have any male nominees. Variety commented that Beyoncé with the album Cowboy Carter, Taylor Swift with The Tortured Poets Department and Billie Eilish with Hit Me Hard and Soft will be the names that receive the most attention and are likely to bring home the most nominations and wins at the Grammy Awards taking place in early 2025. Chappell Roan's The Rise and Fall of a Midwest Princess is the hot album of the summer of 2024, and is almost impossible to miss at the Grammys. In addition, there are two other strong candidates: Eternal Sunshine by Ariana Grande and Short N' Sweet by Sabrina Carpenter.

Meanwhile, the music world is experiencing a period of lack of outstanding products from male artists. Previously at the 2024 Grammy Awards, Jon Batiste was the only male artist nominated for Album of the Year. The situation may be even less optimistic in the 2025 season.

Chris Stapleton is the most likely male artist to be nominated for Album of the Year with Higher. The country star is a Grammy regular with 20 nominations and 10 wins, most notably with his breakthrough album Traveller nine years ago.

In Asia, apart from BTS, who received three nominations, no K-pop artist has really conquered this demanding award. This year, Lisa (BLACKPINK) made headlines when she applied for nominations in multiple categories for the Grammy.
