Five New Queens of Pop Defining 2025’s Sound


The first one is Sabrina Carpenter. With her viral hit “Manchild” and a sold-out world tour, Sabrina Carpenter has turned playful self-awareness into chart-topping confidence. Sabrina’s catchy lyrics and playful attitude have made her one of 2025’s biggest names in pop.


Chappell Roan comes next. Riding the wave of her breakout success with “Good Luck, Babe!”, Chappell brings theatrical tension and queer empowerment to every performance. Her colorful visuals and genuine personality make her voice stand out in today’s pop scene.


Then, Olivia Rodrigo, already a global icon, took 2025 by storm with her extended GUTS World Tour, selling out arenas across North America, Europe, and Asia. Her blend of rock energy proves she’s more than a teenage sensation - she’s becoming a true pop queen of her era.


The next one should be Tate McRae. With her sleek, dance-driven single “Tit for Tat”, Tate cements her place as one of pop’s most dynamic performers. Her mix of precision, vulnerability, and viral choreography defines the energy of 2025.


And then there’s Gracie Abrams. Following her acclaimed album “The Secret of Us”, Gracie has become the voice of quiet emotion. Her intimate songwriting and gentle sound offer a refreshing contrast in a world full of noise.
