As of press time at 12:20AM ET, it appears at #15 on Spotify&#8217;s New Music Friday &#8212; just two places below Taylor Swift&#8217;s &#8220;evermore&#8221; bonus track &#8220;it&#8217;s time to go.&#8221; <\/p>\n<p>Co-written by Rodrigo and Daniel Nigro, the song also holds a solid position on the popular Pop Rising playlist. <\/p>\n<p>Unsurprising given the quality of her soundtrack work, &#8220;drivers license&#8221; is an utterly fantastic release. Featuring conversational, bitingly honest lyrics and vocals that are powerful in both a technical and emotional sense, the song offers a resonant introduction to a surefire superstar.<\/p>\n<p>In conjunction with the audio launch, Rodrigo also premiered the song&#8217;s official music video:<\/p>\n<div id=\"g1-fluid-wrapper-counter-1\" class=\"g1-fluid-wrapper \" style=\"width:662px;\" data-g1-fluid-width=\"662\" data-g1-fluid-height=\"372\">\n<div class=\"g1-fluid-wrapper-inner\" style=\"padding-bottom:56.19335347432%;\">\n\t       <iframe title=\"Olivia Rodrigo - drivers license (Official Video)\" width=\"662\" height=\"372\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/ZmDBbnmKpqQ?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer;
