Happy birthday to the legendary Roger Troutman, who truly gave us "More Bounce to the Ounce"! Your funky vocoder stylings didn't just get people grooving—they had even Tupac and Spice 1 vibing hard. Seriously, when your beats inspire an entire coast of hip-hop greatness from Oakland all down California Love's highway—you're definitely doing something right!Even though talk-box masters come and go, no one can ever replace that unmistakably smooth Zapp magic you created. Hoping wherever you're celebrating today has plenty of funk vibes; because let's face it—we can't imagine a party without at least three renditions of Computer Love!
