B. Able stands at the forefront of a new narrative: one that challenges stereotypes and demands that the world “see the able, not the label.”

Revolutionary recording artist, songwriter, actor and saxophonist B. Able blends hip-hop, R&B, soul, and jazz influences to create music that awakens awareness as much as it entertains.

In this episode of the Abeceder work life balance podcast Rest and Recreation, B.Able explains to host Michael Millward how as a man who is openly on the autism spectrum, he is awakening awareness of autism, and how people focus on the label not the individual person.

B.Able explains how after moving to Los Angeles he built a network of the right people and how he combats the masking that people with autism adopt to fit in.

They discuss

• ·B.Able’s first single “The Definition,” and his follow-up project “Working on Myself,” which embodies disciplined growth in action.
• Being defined as autistic at age 2 and the challenges that created
• The value of family support
• How B.Able built his music career
• How B.Able spends his rest and recreation time.
