Sabrina Carpenter makes a welcome return to the pop scene on February 19 with new single “Smoke And Fire.” A gutsy break-up anthem, the first taste of the Girl Meet World star’s sophomore LP hints at a newfound maturity in her songwriting. “I hadn’t written for, I want to say, eight months since the first album released, and I just had a lot of stories building up,” the 16-year-old told Instagram’s official music account.

“I kind of write wherever I go,” she continues. “So even when I’m not in a professional session, I’m always writing down things in my phone and in my notes on stuff that inspired me and stuff that I see in everyday life.” Sabrina carved out a niche as Disney’s country-pop princess with stellar EP Can’t Blame A Girl For Trying and 2015 debut album Eyes Wide Open, which delivered gems “We’ll Be The Stars” and “Best Thing I Got.” Listen to a snippet of her latest below.

A sneak peek at @sabrinacarpenter’s new single “Smoke and Fire.” After her first record, “Eyes Wide Open,” dropped in 2015, the “Girl Meets World” star found herself back in the studio with an excess of new experiences to share. The first one, about a breakup with a boyfriend, turned into the song posted here. “I hadn’t written for, I want to say, eight months since the first album released, and I just had a lot of stories building up,” says Sabrina, before adding that she comes up with a lot of her music ideas on the fly. “I kind of write wherever I go. So even when I’m not in a professional session, I’m always writing down things in my phone and in my notes on stuff that inspired me and stuff that I see in everyday life.” Video by @sabrinacarpenter
