043: Sparsh Shah: Combining Indian Classical Music with Hip Hop

They say that the eyes are the window to the soul. That has never been more true than when Sparsh Shah looked into his parents’ eyes and told them not to worry or give up on him. He was told he was going to die, but knew he was meant to do something amazing in this world. Sparsh was born with 30 to 40 fractures. He has a medical condition called osteogenesis imperfecta, an incurable genetic-borne disorder which causes a person’s bones to be extremely fragile. He’s had over 130 plus fractures in all of his fourteen years of life. Sparsh's bones may be breaking but his spirit isn’t. Combining Indian classical music with rap has been his motivation to keep going. Sparsh shares how he merged the two cultures and how it has been an amazing journey so far.
