Taylor Swift called it "the summer of Sabrina." Now can Sabrina Carpenter prove her right?
The "Espresso" and "Please Please Please" hitmaker has released her sixth studio album, "Short n' Sweet," and with it the music video for her album opener, "Taste" featuring "Wednesday" actress Jenna Ortega.
The track teases her ex's new-but-old flame by informing the other woman of her lingering presence.
"I heard you're back together and if that's true / You'll just have to taste me when he's kissin' you," she sings in the chorus. "If you want forever, I bet you do / Just know you'll taste me too."
The music video sees Carpenter try to attack Ortega with a knife, before realizing the "Beetlejuice" star is prepared with a shotgun, using it to blast the singer over a balcony. Later, Carpenter busts in on Ortega and the man in question in the shower, "Psycho"-style.

The single has a shot at being her latest hit record — following Billboard No. 1 single "Please" and top 10 single "Espresso" — and could solidify her summer takeover at the buzzer.

Dominating the summer is not as easy as it sounds. One of the last times a singer ruled the summer with multiple hit singles in a row was Olivia Rodrigo in the summer of 2021, with her singles "Good 4 U" and "Deja Vu."
The fellow former Disney kid released her debut album "Sour" and followed up breakout hit "Drivers License" earlier that year with No. 1 single "Deja Vu," which debuted in April of that year and remained in the top 10 through the summer, and "Good 4 U," released in May and reaching No. 3 on the Billboard Hot 100 chart that summer.

Drake achieved a three-peat in the summer of 2018 with "God's Plan," which debuted early in the year and remained on the charts that summer. He followed immediately after with "Nice For What," which peaked at No. 1 that April and remained on the summer charts, and "I'm Upset," a top 10 hit that didn't have the cultural dominance as the first two.
Justin Bieber made his comeback in the summer of 2015. The singer released "Where Are Ü Now" with Jack Ü that February, becoming a global hit and peaking in the top 10 that summer. He followed the collaboration with his fourth studio album "Purpose" and its first single, "What Do You Mean?" which later debuted at No. 1 in mid-September. Mega-hit "Sorry" followed that fall.

If "Taste" successfully charts, Carpenter could be one of a few artists to dominate the summer with three hit singles in a row. And it looks promising: A little over an hour after its release, the music video has one million views.
