About this episode
Raja is a lyrical personification of the new hip-hop culture driven by multicultural and international artists. Raja was born and raised in Long Island, NY and comes from a very traditional, strict and successful family. They were totally against his pursuit of rap in fact they looked at it as a hobby and urged him to follow a path of education. After dropping out of college, Raja's father had a stroke and passed away. It is then that Raja realized he indeed needed to go hard. Although no stranger to professing his love for women and partying, he equally touches on breaking the stereotypes that society determines. His musical palette ranges from Jay-Z & Tupac to Drake; while his lyrical content and sound is heavily impacted by Kanye West – lyrical, fashionable and fun. He has never been the normal kid; very full of energy, he says “normal is boring to me.” His message is simply: no one should be afraid to be themselves and go after their dreams or what they believe in.
