    This video of a 12-year-old lad from New Jersey covering Eminem's 'Not Afraid' is going viral because it's absolutely class.

    Sparsh Shah, who was born with an incurable disease called Osteogenesis Imperfecta, which causes him to have extremely fragile bones, confining him to a wheelchair, says the track is his "power song" because of its powerful lyrics "minus the curses."

    He's hoping the sick cover will inspire of "billions" of people and hopefully catch the attention of Slim Shady himself.

    The little lad captioned the video:

    Hello everyone! This is Sparsh, and this my debut clean cover of Eminem's song, "Not Afraid" (with my classical touch) from his album "Recovery" as my rapper avatar, "PURHYTHM". I feel like "Not Afraid" has been my power song ever since I heard it for the first time and Eminem became my idol in the rap genre. He has inspired me so much with his powerful songs and lyrics (minus curses), and I aspire that one day, I could get to meet him and sing (or rap!) with him.

    It's always been my dream to inspire BILLIONS of people one day with my musical talent, and I wish that dream comes true. Please like, share, and subscribe if you liked my cover! :)

    Smashed it!

    Eminem must see this and help him somehow, at least share this on his Facebook.
