Sabrina Carpenter is throwing her hat into the “Song Of The Summer” ring: She released “ Manchild ” at midnight, and this morning, she returned with a video for the track.
There’s a lot going on here. It starts with Carpenter getting kicked out of a moving vehicle. From there, she hitches rides in everything from just the front half of a truck to a jet-ski on wheels to a car with trees growing out of it. Along the way, she goes on myriad adventures, including being painted on a lake, having a gun pointed at her, and distributing a little violence of her own.
She also explained the origins of the song on Instagram , writing:
“i wrote manchild on a random tuesday with amy and jack not too long after finishing short n’ sweet and it ended up being the best random tuesday of my life
