Grammy-Nominated Epic Records recording artist/dancer RAJA KUMARI has written with and for artists like Gwen Stefani, Meghan Trainor, Timbaland, Iggy Azalea, Fifth Harmony and Fallout Boy. Now she branches out on a solo career with her new EP, "The Come Up". Melding Hip-Hop and Classical Indian styles, Raja explores a new musical genre with a ferocious grace that is a sight to behold. Utkarsh and Raja take a deep dive on growing up Indian in America, sharing their opposite experiences of being both ashamed and proud of their cultures as children. Raja then talks about her musical collaborations with Iggy Azalea and Gwen Stefani, and Kobe Bryant walking out to her song in his final game. Then Utkarsh deep dives with Raja on how EXACTLY she has built the successful career(spoiler alert: amazing story about Timbaland coming atcha) in the music industry that she has. An open, honest conversation about culture, creativity, bravery and discipline.
