"emails i can't send fwd:" is the deluxe version of the fifth studio album by American singer and songwriter Sabrina Carpenter, released on March 17, 2023 by Island Records.
Sabrina has already expressed that this record has turned into her most honest and personal one expressing that this record is “the first one where i am myself”.
The original release of the record was first teased during her music video for the January 2021 single “Skin”, where the singer can be seen on top of a car with the license plate “SC52021”. Despite not being released on that year, Brina took the opportunity to keep teasing new songs and the new album through the music video for “Skinny Dipping”.
The second single for this project, “Fast Times”, was released on February 18, 2022. The third and final single from the album, “Vicious” was released on July 1, 2022. A few hours before the release of the single, Sabrina announced this album. The album name was hinted at in the skinny dipping music video, along with some lyrics from the album.
"I started writing emails to myself in the beginning of quarantine as a way of kind of not going insane. And I realized the type of venting emails that you write out, but never plan on sending are the most authentic, real part of your brain that you can capture in that moment, because you’re not worried about how people are going to hear it or how they’re going to perceive you after they hear it… So, basically, the songs that I’ve been writing for the last year have come from the starts of those emails.
I’ve learned a lot and, essentially, this next record for me, feels like the first one where I am myself… I just think that there’s a lot that I’ve learned and now a lot that I can kind of honestly reflect and look back on and see things with clear eyes and see people’s intentions with clear eyes and see moments where I could have gone left instead of right. And if it would’ve made a difference, doesn’t matter, you can’t change that. But it’s been that combined with, you said this earlier, but the music that I grew up on and how that’s really shaped me and working with these people that understand music better than anyone. And I think that it’s been a really beautiful, just fun process, which is all I could ever ask for."
