Happy birthday to the one and only King Gordy, whose lyrical genius exploded onto the scene with his iconic 2003 album, "The Entity." Your rhymes are so fierce even Eminem had to bring you aboard for a spot in "8 Mile"—clearly he was guarding himself against rap royalty!But seriously (well, sort of), your style continues to shock fans into awe. Just when we think we've recovered from those diabolically clever bars of yours—bam! You give us another memorable dose. Here's hoping this year brings bigger beats, endless inspiration—and no rap battles against Mom's spaghetti.
Keep rocking it royally!
