Sunder Nursery, drive and music video breakdown with

We spent a day with Burraah in New Delhi. He took us to Sunder Nursery, a place he visits at least twice a week and does a lot of his meditating and writing there. We then drove around in his car, and ended up at his home studio, the place he grew up and now does most of his work at.

We discussed his dream shows, his success so far, his purpose with his music, his time at MTV Hustle, and the growth of hip-hop in India. At his studio, he broke down the music video of his song 'Khuli Hawa', which he was still working on when we shot this video. The song is part of his EP, 'Letting Go', a transformational project and the cornerstone of his journey going forward.

Through this meeting, we got to know him a little better.
