***About a Woman*** is the seventh studio album by American [country music](/source/Country_music) artist [Thomas Rhett](/source/Thomas_Rhett). It was released on August 23, 2024, through [Valory](/source/Big_Machine_Records).[1] The album's lead single, "[Beautiful as You](/source/Beautiful_as_You_(Thomas_Rhett_song))", was released on May 13, 2024.[2] A deluxe edition of the album, which features nine new tracks and collaborative remixes of "[Somethin' 'Bout a Woman](/source/Somethin'_'Bout_a_Woman)" and "What Could Go Right," was released on September 26, 2025. This is the first studio album in Rhett's career to not feature any tracks co-written by his father [Rhett Akins](/source/Rhett_Akins).[citation needed]

## Content

Thomas Rhett co-wrote 13 of the 14 tracks on *About a Woman*, and longtime collaborators [Julian Bunetta](/source/Julian_Bunetta) and [Dan Huff](/source/Dan_Huff) executive produced the album.[3] Rhett, who first began working on the album in April 2023, noted that the title's inspiration came from his wife, Lauren, and his commitment to her.[4] He described the album's recording process as wanting "to exude joy and fun with this project—and really just make people move".[3] The album is largely described as up-tempo, with the closing track, "I Could Spend Forever Loving You", being its only ballad.[1] The track "Don't Wanna Dance" interpolates [Whitney Houston](/source/Whitney_Houston)'s "[I Wanna Dance with Somebody (Who Loves Me)](/source/I_Wanna_Dance_with_Somebody_(Who_Loves_Me))", one of many examples of the album's influence of "retro 80s sounds and thumping beats" over a more organic country foundation.[3][1]
