About This Track

Ambré and Kehlani trade verses over a production by Erick Bardales, each staking their claim to upward momentum. Ambré anchors herself in New Orleans and the neighbourhood of Hollygrove, moving with the confidence of someone who doesn't need validation or shortcuts. Kehlani matches that energy from Los Angeles, her verse a rapid-fire assertion of ambition and focus, pushing back against the noise of those watching her every move. The track builds around a simple, repetitive hook that doubles as both boast and mantra. Both artists move between braggadocio and something more grounded: the work itself, the vision, the refusal to be distracted by doubt or jealousy. There's a clarity to how they frame success not as arrival but as a direction, a daily choice to keep moving forward.

"Preach" is a track by Ambré, released 14th May 2015. Full lyrics are available below.

Lyrics

Preach

[Prod. By Erick Bardales]

[Verse 1: Ambré Perkins]

Still in New Orleans, still with my partnas

All of my ex's keep track of my progress to see what I drop next

I'm in the lobby, you know it's on yeah

You know I'm grown yeah

You know wassam when I get you alone yeah, get you alone

You just tryna hang cause I'm next to blow

And if I'm taking niggas down you the first to go

Don't need no handouts shorty I'm from Hollygrove

Tryna kick it with my lil yea and head out on the road

I get it hot like a sauna

All my niggas dominicana

I'm getting brain like a scholar, he tryna do me the honor

I think Ima pop one for you, drink one for you

[Hook]

Young nigga preach

Preach, preach, preach, preach, preach

Young nigga preach

Preach, preach, preach, preach, preach, preach

Young nigga preach

Preach, preach, preach, preach, preach

Young nigga preach

Preach, preach, preach, preach, preach, preach

[Verse 2: Kehlani]

Still in Los Angeles, still tryna make it all happen

Most people won't understand it

Lucky I got me one out here selling ships like a captain

I am convinced that these bitches are watching my movements and writing them down

So I stop saying words, you'll just hear me on records like

I'm on my way up right

I'm damn sure not the lazy type yeah

A new state every night

I might just light the dank tonight yeah

None of the mob is with the play play

You know Ambré got folks here

Going way way way way way

Working hard until it's pay day

Something 'bout all these mixtapes

Man they charting like albums

Underground's one thing

Stadium music is how our shit sounding

Bitches be all in they feelings these days, all in they feelings these days

But we got a vision, we doing this shit cause it's bread to be made

[Hook: Kehlani]
