  Is Afrika Bambaataa secretly gay and hiding in the closet?

Afrika Bambaataa is celebrating his 67th birthday today. As a number of online tributes attest, he is one of the most acclaimed djs of his generation.

Popular dj Afrika Bambaataa (Planet Rock, ...) has always liked to keep a bit of himself hidden from view. At 67th birthday, he remains a man of many facets.

Bambaataa, a cultural icon

Born Kevin Donovan in New York on April 19, 1957, his career spans an arc over many different eras and tastes in American history. Bambaataa's not just a great dj, he's an inspiration, an icon and a successful business man. At this point in his career, there seems to be little Afrika hasn't done.

And we've got a feeling the next 12 months are going to be even bigger and better for Afrika Bambaataa as he promises more to come. After all, he's only 67.

Happy Birthday, Afrika, you're the best!
