Raja Kumari, a renowned Indian-American musician, singer, and rapper, recently posted about her emotional roller coaster after she had her India tour cancelled. Raja Kumari was born Svetha Yallapragada Rao on January 11, 1986, in Claremont, California. She has been famous for merging classical Indian music with contemporary hip-hop. She has worked with some prominent artists such as Gwen Stefani and Iggy Azalea.
Cancellation of her tour made her feel "lost and confused," and hence, she embarked on a spiritual quest that culminated in her recent EP, Kashi To Kailash. This release is a blend of traditional Sanskrit chants and modern hip-hop, which is a new direction in her music career. Raja Kumari's path shows how she transformed from a traumatic incident to a deep spiritual realization.
