SABRINA CARPENTER, ‘AMERICA’S GOT TALENT’ WINNER RICHARD GOODALL AMONG BREAKOUT MUSIC STARS OF 2024<\/a><\/p>\n

I know it has been almost two years since I last released an album. I gotta say this is the best I have ever done and the most proud I\u2019ve ever been of my music. There was a long while where I didn\u2019t want to write and record. I got to a point where I was scared to tell my truth and instead of writing about it I ran away from it. Until I was finally ready for that chapter to end and start a new one. Scared of Heights is the chapter of my life where I didn\u2019t believe in myself and struggled with self worth. I\u2019ve had to relearn how to love myself and others. Through this process I started writing again and this time it felt different\u2026I knew I was headed in a direction I\u2019ve always wanted to go but never been. I surprised myself by making this album. My fears are still with me but I\u2019m learning they do not control me. I hope y\u2019all find something to take with you on this new journey.<\/p>\n

It’s great to see the world of country music continue to explode, and Flores is right at the front of the movement.<\/p>\n

His song “Drive All Night” made waves as soon as it came out, and I have no doubt his upcoming album will also be outstanding.<\/p>\n
