Let's make this birthday one to remember.

42 years old (Born on December 25, 1982)

Happy Birthday to Baltimore's lyrical legend, Jerome Carrington—better known as Rome Cee! Another year older and still dropping rhymes smoother than crab cakes at the Inner Harbor. From underground battles to unforgettable tracks like "The Extra Mile" and "Illusions of Love," you've kept us nodding our heads while wondering how you manage to age backward.

This past year has been epic: your latest performances have lit up stages across Charm City, reminding everyone why you're a true hip-hop gem. Keep spitting fire bars and inspiring beats; just remember—with great rhyme comes great responsibility (and maybe fewer candles). Happy birthday, Rome!
