Serving as an alleged response to Olivia Rodrigo’s wildly popular “drivers license,” “Skin” is a message to all the people that sent her hate for being with Joshua Bassett and also has lines that appear to be directly addressed at Rodrigo.
The song is Sabrina Carpenter’s first single release in 2021 and her first with her new record label Island Records. The song was a surprise release announced by Sabrina on her Twitter and Instagram on January 21, 2021.
