“Drivers license” was just the beginning for Olivia Rodrigo, who has turned the No. 1 launch of the anthemic ballad in January 2021 into one of pop’s biggest breakthrou­ghs of the decade so far. Upon its release last May, the High School Musical: The Musical: The Series star’s debut album, Sour, topped the Billboard 200, while pop-punk follow-up single “good 4 u” became Rodrigo’s second No. 1 smash. After taking home the Grammy Award for best new artist and embarking on her first headlining tour, she’s already looking ahead to her next musical era. “It’s really exciting to think about the next world that’s coming up for me,” Rodrigo told Billboard earlier this year. “I just love writing songs. I’m trying not to put too much pressure on myself. [I want to] just explore and have fun right now.”
