Happy Birthday, Luke James!
R&B is having a lost year, but it's not because of a lack of talent. Luke James still exists. The New Orleans-bred singer turns 31 years old today (June 13).
Happy Birthday, Faith Evans!
Today (June 10), we talk about Faith Evans, the first female artist to sign with Bad Boy Records, because it's her 42nd birthday.
Happy Birthday, Curtis Mayfield!
When you look at the greatest black musicians who ever lived, Curtis Mayfield and his slick grooves come to mind. The legendary Chicagoan would've turned 73 today (June 3).
Happy Birthday, CeeLo Green!
Rapper-singer CeeLo Green, who comes from Atlanta's respected hip-hop cliques Organized Noize, turns 41 today (May 30).

Happy Birthday, Sam Smith!
The British sweetheart Sam Smith turns 23 today (May 19).
Happy Birthday, James Brown!
Soul icon James Brown is one of the most sampled artists in hip-hop. The late Godfather of Soul would’ve turned 82 today (May 3).
Happy Birthday, Avant!
Veteran R&B crooner Avant has the distinctive honor of being everyone’s favorite singer. The Cleveland native spent the better part of the last decade sweeping women off their feet with his charming presence. The muscular Lothario celebrates his 37th birthday today (April 26).
Happy Birthday, Suge Knight!
It’s not surprising that many are unsympathetic to Suge Knight‘s legal troubles right now. He’s one of hip-hop’s most notorious figures and has been accused of doing absurd things to get his way. Still, Knight is a legend for more than his intimidation tactics. The former rap mogul turns 50 today (April 19).
