Let's make this birthday one to remember.

88 years old (Born on September 27, 1936)

Happy birthday to the legend himself, Don Cornelius! The conductor who brought us aboard the hippest ride in television history—Soul Train. Thanks for making dance floors irresistible and leisure suits fashionable (well... mostly). From your effortlessly smooth greetings of "love, peace, and soul," to that groovy dance line competition—you made Saturday mornings worth waking up early for.

Your legacy lives on through timeless archives filled with legendary moves and unforgettable hairstyles. We're still trying those spin moves but can't quite match your coolness factor. Here's wishing you eternal rhythm and endless celebrations wherever you're keeping that cosmic Soul Train rolling now!
