In 2022, Sabrina Carpenter released her fifth studio album, Emails I Can't Send, after signing with Island Records.[2][3] The album found commercial success with its single, "Feather", topping the US Pop songs chart and became her highest-charting track at the time on the Billboard Hot 100.[4] To promote the album, she embarked on the Emails I Can't Send Tour in 2023.[5] Thoroughout the year and early 2024, Carpenter also served as an opening act for Taylor Swift on selected South American, Australian, and Asian dates of the Eras Tour.[6] She was announced to be a performer at the 2024 American festival Coachella.[7]

In February 2024, speaking with Maya Hawke for Interview, Carpenter expressed her excitement on her new music, and said that she would be exploring more genres as she did with her last album.[8] In March, she confirmed in an interview with Cosmopolitan that she was working on her next album.[6] She noted that, "I'm starting to feel like I've outgrown the songs I'm singing [on The Eras Tour], which is always an exciting feeling because I think that means the next chapter is right around the corner".[6]
