About this episode
Bryce Wilson discusses his impact on R&B music and his transition into film and television.
Bryce Wilson, producer, songwriter, and founding member of Groove Theory, joins J. Valentine to break down one of the most influential sounds in R&B history. Best known for the classic “Tell Me,” Bryce shares how Groove Theory helped shape the mid-’90s shift toward a more minimal, groove-driven sound that blended hip-hop and soul. He dives into the creative process behind the music, the importance of feel over complexity, and why that era still resonates today. We also get into his transition from artist and producer into the world of film and television, and how he’s continued to evolve creatively across industries.
