In this episode of The P.I.M.P. Game Podcast host Kenny D welcomes R&B artist Aric B, who shares his musical journey from singing in his grandfather's church at age five to performing the national anthem at Yankee Stadium. The Decatur, Georgia native reveals how his sound was shaped by gospel legends and neo-soul pioneers before he developed his own distinctive style, which he describes as a mix of John Legend, Tank, and Musiq Soulchild. Aric discusses the challenges of learning to write meaningful songs, working with Grammy-winning producers, and his brief brush with writing for Mary J. Blige. He gives listeners the inside scoop on his debut R&B album "Things Never Said" and treats the audience to a live acapella performance of his single "Always You." The conversation concludes with Aric's packed touring schedule and his advice for aspiring musicians to keep honing their craft regardless of who's listening.
