Murphy Lee is celebrating his 47th birthday today. As a number of online tributes attest, he is one of the most acclaimed rappers of his generation.
Popular rapper-business man Murphy Lee (Wat Da Hook Gon Be, ...) has always liked to keep a bit of himself hidden from view. At 47th birthday, he remains a man of many facets.
Lee, a cultural icon
Born Torhi Harper in St. Louis on December 18, 1978, his career spans an arc over many different eras and tastes in American history. Lee's not just a great rapper, he's an inspiration, an icon and a very charming man. At this point in his career, there seems to be little Murphy hasn't done.
And we've got a feeling the next 12 months are going to be even bigger and better for Murphy Lee as he promises more to come. After all, he's only 47.
Happy Birthday, Murphy, you're the best!
