Carl Thomas

Conquer

This title will be released on December 6, 2011.

For the recording of Conquer, Thomas enlisted some of today’s top producers, including Andre Harris (formerly of multi-platinum production duo Dre & Vidal) who produced the smooth and seductive title track which opens with a quiet tempest of strings—the kind you hear during a pivotal scene of a spaghetti Western—and “Round 2,” about his request to repeat an intimate encounter with a beautiful woman to jar his memory. Conquer continues with the Rex Rideout-(Ledisi) produced “It Is What It Is” which was written by hip-hop legend Heavy D and showcases Thomas’ effortless ability to ride rhythms and skillfully ad-lib all at once; the romantic wedding ballad “I Do” which was written by Thomas and produced by The Internz (Justin Bieber) conveys the groom’s point of view as he watches his gorgeous bride walk down the aisle; and the Mario Winans-produced “It Ain’t Fair” whose production style works in perfect tandem with Thomas’ subtle yet urgent delivery as he continues his grown-man flirts and adulation of a angelically beautiful woman.
