Let's make this birthday one to remember.

53 years old (Born on December 15, 1971)

Happy Birthday, Imani! From dropping rhymes with The Pharcyde to making us groove endlessly to classics like "Passin' Me By," you've always kept it fresh. Your lyrical genius and smooth flow have aged better than fine wine—though we're still trying (and failing) to rap along without stumbling.

Whether you're reminiscing about the good ol' days or cooking up new beats, your talent remains timeless. Here's hoping your birthday is filled with laughter, love, and maybe a little freestyle session that reminds everyone why you're one of hip-hop's finest storytellers. Keep rockin', keep rhymin', and never stop passin' us by!
