May 16, 2024 Los Angeles, CA –
Multi-hyphenate Life Artist B.Slade dropped his latest inspirational single, ‘Doubtin’ Thomas’ on his Plush Boy Music label. With a career spanning 30 years, B.Slade has earned two Emmy® Awards, a GMA DOVE® award, an Ovation® Award, eight STELLAR Awards, and eight Grammy nominations. His diverse discography, which includes over 30 albums and 300+ songs across various genres, showcases his versatility as a multi- platinum-selling singer, songwriter, actor, producer, and entertainer. ‘Doubtin’ Thomas’ is the lead single from B.Slade’s latest inspirational project ‘Prayer Drone.’ B.Slade is thrilled about the message of the single. “I penned ‘Doubtin’ Thomas.’ as a summer anthem, a gentle reminder to trust in God even in the face of life’s challenges. Doubting God and His ability to guide us to a successful outcome is not how one shows gratitude for His consistent faithfulness.
I never want to be a Doubtin’ Thomas – you know, questioning the ability of someone who has proven countless times that He knows what He’s doing must be frustrating to God. I strive to be better than that.” B.Slade’s collaboration with acclaimed producer Rick Robinson was instrumental in creating the unique sound of the track. “I was on tour when I recorded this song. I wanted to infuse an R&B POP feel with an editorial trap beat. My brother and friend Rick Robinson sent me the beat, and I added my own touch to it. The result perfectly captures the spring/summer vibe I was aiming for,” B.Slade shares. “It’s an inspirational track that challenges the listener to deepen their faith. I made it for vehicular enjoyment. I want people to feel good while driving or riding around to this song.” B.Slade has perfected his craft, delivering ‘Life Artistry’ across genres to diverse audiences worldwide. He explains, “Being a ‘Life Artist’ means I sing about life in its entirety. This includes the natural and the spiritual, both of which are crucial elements in the balance of our character and faith. I sing about whatever piques my interest in life now. Sometimes, that involves my faith as a believer, and other times, I sing, dance, and draw inspiration from my experiences as a human being. The Bible contains stories of humanity, love, loss, and redemption. My life is filled with stories about the same things. Architecture impacts me just as much as a movie or book. I incorporate all these elements into my artistry. That’s what being a ‘Life Artist’ is all about.” ‘Doubtin’ Thomas’ is widely available where digital music is sold and streamed, and the single has already seen early adds to radio station playlists globally.
