Olivia Rodrigo had a very successful year in 2024 with the hits Driver's License, Deja Vu and Good 4 U. Sabrina Carpenter has had a very successful 2024 with Feather, Espresso and Please Please Please. Who had a better year? Olivia or Sabrina?

2024 isn't over, so there's still time for Sabrina, especially with the album drop next month. Right now she's having a nice successful era.
But Olivia in 2021 had one of those eras.
So as of now I'll say Olivia.

Right now I would give Olivia the slight edge due to more weeks at #1 but the year's not over yet.

Olivia, not even close.
But Sabrina could get there.

I still believe that out of the two, Sabrina should have had her big break before Olivia. Sabrina’s been around longer and to me, Olivia sounds just a little bit fresher. I really don’t know why it took so long for Sabrina.

we'll know it for sure one or two weeks after Sabrina's album, but so far Olivia easily.

Yeah let's not forget even the SOUR album tracks were smashing on streaming with no push.

If we're talking first-week album domination of the Top 20, it's Olivia for sure (from www.billboard.com/pro/olivia-rodrigo-all-sour-songs-hot-100-top-30/):![](//storage.proboards.com/1258812/thumbnailer/ufWfejcVtvTTltDqPRra.png) For those who don't want to click on the image, Olivia occupied 11 spots, 9 in the Top 20: 2,3,9,11,12,14,15,18,19,24,29 Sabrina's first week is less dominating overall (with 13 songs but only 5 in the Top 20): 2,3,4,14,15,21,22,26,27,32,35,41

In terms of music, Olivia's debut was definitely bigger. We'll see how SNS holds up, but SOUR is/was a huge album.
Breakthrough as a star and a personality though? I'd give the edge to Sabrina. And that's just because she's a more well-rounded celebrity.

And that's just because she's a more well-rounded celebrity. This feels very sensible to me. Sour was a MASSIVE album. Those streaming numbers are HUGE. It might literally be the #1 most streamed female album on Spotify.

I mean, Olivia Rodrigo was the defining artist of the year, with two megasmash #1 hits and one of the biggest debut albums of all time. She was *the* story of the year in 2021. Sabrina has had a really nice breakthrough this year, but the story of the year was the beef, the biggest album was Tortured Poets, and even in terms of breakthroughs, Chappell Roan has probably been more culturally relevant. The year’s not over, I think you could make a case for Espresso as the song of the summer, and I can see Carpenter having more long term impact than Olivia (who’s affinity for 90s and 00s rock may ultimately cost her commercially). But in terms of this comparison, it’s Olivia, no contest

it's not what? SOUR is the most streamed female album of all time with 13.1B streams, it's also the best-selling female album of the 2020s, with about 20M units globally (I think 2nd overall, only behind Bad Bunny's Un Verano Sin Ti).
