Pop music loves a festival cameo. Most of those moments vanish the minute the lights go down. This one didn’t. Sabrina Carpenter and Madonna turned their Coachella surprise into a real release, confirming that their duet “Bring Your Love” lands on April 30 at 3 p.m. PT. That matters because it takes a one-night stunt and turns it into an actual pop product — with two stars from very different eras betting the chemistry works offstage too.
