Olivia Rodrigo - drivers license (Official Video)

Rodrigo made her first big break on the High School Musical: The Musical series as the leading female role. Now, the star is on her way to having the first major hit of 2021 after releasing her debut single on January 7th. It is rumored that the somber song is about her Disney co-star Joshua Bassett who is reportedly dating 21-year-old singer Sabrina Carpenter after breaking things off with Rodrigo. The lyrics refer to the new girl as "blonde" and "older," both of which matches the characteristics of Carpenter.

Pop Crave reports that "drivers license" earned the "biggest single-day streams for a song by a female artist in US Spotify history with over 5.688 MILLION." This record was previously held by Ariana Grande for two years for her "thank u, next" masterpiece.

Everyone is talking about this Californian-native including Artist of the Decade Taylor Swift. As the star's track was on the rise to the top of Apple Music's charts, Rodrigo posted about her viral song following the evermore singer-songwriter. To her surprise, Swift commented on the post, spreading love and support for the teen artist.

"I say that's my baby and I'm really proud"

Rodrigo's chart-topping song also represents something much greater. She is the first Asian American woman to reach #1 on Apple Music Charts. With so much work to diversify the pool of mainstream artists in the past year, this milestone is inspiring for those who see someone that looks like them succeeding in the industry.

Season two of High School Musical: The Musical is currently under production, with the singer slated to continue her Vanessa Hudgens reboot role of Gabriella Montez.

Congratulations to the star on all of her accomplishments.
