Let's make this birthday one to remember.

44 years old (Born on August 31, 1980)

Happy Birthday, Joe Budden! You're not just another year older, you're like that legendary New Jersey mixtape—classic vibes mixed with blunt honesty and endless replay value. From battling verses on street corners to podcast battles behind the mic, your lyrical savvy never left us bored.

We salute how effortlessly you've transitioned from rap heavyweight to podcast phenomenon; criticizing records harder than East Coast winters and stirring pots hotter than Newark summers. Keep bringing those gutsy opinions loud and proud—we wouldn't have you any other way. Here's to staying unapologetically authentic for yet another amazing lap around the sun!
