Rising R&B star TA Thomas continues to captivate audiences with his latest single, “Preach,” a seductive anthem that praises the magnetic allure of his love interest. Penned by Grammy-nominated artist Lucky Daye, “Preach” finds Thomas enmeshed in the intoxicating spell of attraction, confessing his willingness to surrender to temptation. The track is a sultry declaration of admiration and desire, set against a backdrop of smooth melodies and lush instrumentation.
The song’s chorus, with lines like, “How’d you get that body to preach? / Let it speak to me, baby,” is a sensual tribute to the physical and emotional magnetism his lover exudes. The lyrics are both playful and intimate, showcasing Thomas’s ability to blend passion with vulnerability. “Preach” paints a picture of desire and reverence, with Thomas ready to follow the lead of his lover’s body, likening it to a divine sermon that speaks directly to his heart.
Produced by Camper, who has worked with heavyweights like Brandy, H.E.R., and Tamar Braxton, “Preach” combines smooth R&B grooves with a hint of southern charm, fitting perfectly within the theme of Thomas’s upcoming Southern Soul EP. The track follows his previous singles, “Angry” and “Risky,” both released in the summer of 2024, further showcasing his growth as an artist. The EP is a heartfelt homage to his Mississippi roots, and “Preach” exemplifies the sultry, soulful sound he’s bringing to the project.
This track also serves as a reminder of TA Thomas’s musical evolution. After his exit from the group Next Town Down, which released their debut EP Juliet in 2019, Thomas ventured into a solo career that has seen him gain recognition for his distinct voice and songwriting. His contributions to Chris Brown’s “Talm’ Bout” from the Breezy (Deluxe) album further cement his position as a rising talent to watch in R&B.
With The Southern Soul EP set to release later this year, TA Thomas is positioning himself as a notable force in the contemporary R&B scene. “Preach” is a tantalizing preview of what’s to come, and fans can expect more sultry and soulful tracks as Thomas continues to carve out his place in the genre.
