Reverend Doctor, the upbeat soul-pop project led by Keith Rollins, has dropped its first single of 2025, ‘Woman Being‘. The song is an infectiously funky, high-energy jam that celebrates the women who’ve helped shape Rollins’ life. It’s a musical love letter to the women who inspire and uplift.
Rollins shares, “‘Woman Being’ is my attempt to answer the question of how we as men can celebrate the women in our lives. I could not be the man I am without the strong, dangerous women that raised me.” That sentiment is front and center in the lyrics of the track, “She walks in lightning. Speaks in thunder. Prays in sunshine. She makes me better.”
Reverend Doctor’s music is rooted in classic soul and funk, drawing inspiration from legends like Marvin Gaye and James Brown. Listeners can hear the influence in ‘Woman Being’, with its iconic sonic feel and an authentic lyrical approach that tells Rollins’ personal story, honoring the women in his own family—his mother, sisters, and grandmother—who all helped mold him into who he is today.
‘Woman Being’ is a song that will get you movin’, but it also carries an important and personal message: that it’s important to reflect on and respect the women that have helped shape us in our lives, because we wouldn’t be where we are without them.
