    KELLY PRICE: THE VOICE. THE SURVIVOR. THE ICON. | A Special Edition of The Roundtable with Robert Bannon

    There are legendary voices... and then there is Kelly Price. From unforgettable hits like "Friend of Mine," "Secret Love," "As We Lay," and "He Proposed" to unforgettable collaborations with Whitney Houston, Mariah Carey, Faith Evans, The Notorious B.I.G., and so many more, Kelly Price has helped define the sound of modern R&B and gospel for more than three decades. Yet beyond the incredible voice is a woman whose story is one of faith, resilience, honesty, and survival. Before taking the stage in Detroit at the Aretha Franklin Amphitheatre, Kelly sits down with The Roundtable with Robert Bannon for a Special Edition unlike any other. Over the course of an unforgettable conversation, Kelly opens up about the triumphs and heartbreaks that shaped her life and career. She reflects on the friendships that changed her forever, surviving the music business on her own terms, finding strength through faith, creating timeless music, and why authenticity has always mattered more than playing the industry's game. Of course, we celebrate the music—from the songs that made her an R&B icon to the next chapter of her remarkable journey—but this is so much more than a career retrospective. It's an intimate conversation with a woman who has lived through the highest highs and the hardest moments, yet continues to inspire audiences with one of the greatest voices of our time. If you think you know Kelly Price... think again. This is Kelly Price as you've rarely seen her—honest, vulnerable, hilarious, wise, and completely unforgettable.
