Pink Sweat$ at Boch Center Shubert Theatre

The multiplatinum West Philadelphia-born and East Coast-based R&B maven PINK SWEAT$ pushes love anytime he picks up a microphone. “Love is the one thing that never gets old,” he muses. “It will never go out of style, like Jordans. It’s a dark world, and I’m spreading light and love to people. We are all walking around in these adult bodies with little children inside of us we’re trying to protect. My purpose is to speak to your inner child.” He’s done just that since first emerging out of his native Philly with his platinum-certified single “Honesty” in 2018. In 2021 he served up his full-length debut, Pink Planet, featuring the single “At My Worst” which quickly reached gold status. The New York Times attested, “As an album, ‘Pink Planet’ extols fidelity and continuity, both to a partner and to a long musical heritage,” and Billboard hailed “his genre-blending music and sentimental lyricism.” In the meantime, he delivered show stopping performances everywhere from The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon and Jimmy Kimmel LIVE! - to Lollapalooza and Coachella.
