Let's make this birthday one to remember.

55 years old (Born on January 12, 1970)

Happy birthday, Zack De La Rocha! May your day be filled with more energy than a Rage Against the Machine concert and fewer technical difficulties than Woodstock '99. Your powerful voice has inspired generations to question authority—and occasionally blow out their speakers trying to match your intensity.

From electrifying stages worldwide with anthems like "Killing in the Name" and passionately advocating for social justice, you've proven that activism can rock harder than any guitar solo. Here's hoping this year brings you as much joy as fans get from watching security guards nervously eyeing mosh pits at your shows. Keep raging on, Zack!
