Sabrina Carpenter’s “Manchild” debuts at No. 1 on the Hot 100 and Streaming Songs charts, while she … More
“Manchild” by Sabrina Carpenter is already one of the biggest hits of 2025, and it earns that distinction as it enjoys a high-profile entrance on numerous Billboard charts. The tune, which introduces the singer’s upcoming album Man’s Best Friend, debuts inside the top five on most of the tallies it appears on, and the cut even starts at No. 1 on several charts.
The new release even brings Carpenter to a new career high on one particularly competitive list.
Sabrina Carpenter’s New Single Opens at No. 3
Carpenter’s latest single opens at No. 3 on the Digital Song Sales chart. Luminate reports that in its first full tracking frame, “Manchild” sold just under 5,600 copies — a fairly healthy sum in today’s streaming-focused music industry.
Sabrina Carpenter’s New Career High
That No. 3 placement now stands as Carpenter’s career-best showing on the Digital Song Sales tally. Until this week, she had only appeared inside the top five with one track. “Taste,” a single from her most recent full-length Short n’ Sweet, debuted in that region in September 2024, stalling at No. 5.
In addition to “Manchild” and “Taste,” Carpenter has also cracked the top 10 on the Digital Song Sales chart with two other tracks, “Espresso” and “Please Please Please.” Those singles from Short n’ Sweet also spent time inside the competitive region, as “Espresso” peaked at No. 6 in June 2024, while “Please Please Please” climbed as high as No. 7 during the same frame.
Sabrina Carpenter Follows Only Oliver Anthony Music
Carpenter earns the second-highest debut this week on the Digital Song Sales tally, and she is edged out only by “Scornful Woman,” the latest release from Oliver Anthony Music. That track opens in the runner-up spot, beating Carpenter’s latest by roughly 200 copies. The list is once again led by “Ordinary” by Alex Warren, which remains one of the breakout smashes of 2025.
“Manchild” Launches at No. 1
A healthy sales figure helps “Manchild” debut at No. 1 on the Hot 100. It earns Carpenter her second champion and fourth top 10 on the tally of the most consumed songs in the U.S., which also factors in streaming activity.
Plays on Spotify, iHeartRadio, Apple Music, Tidal and other sites also played a major role in the tune’s immediate success, as the track launches at No. 1 on the all-genre Streaming Songs chart. Radio support contributes to a song’s placement on the Hot 100 as well, and while “Manchild” earns notable debuts on both the Pop Airplay and Adult Pop Airplay rankings, it misses the Radio Songs chart for now.
