The iconic and legendary singer turns 84 on Monday, Feb. 19, 2024.

Smokey Robinson is celebrating his 84th birthday today. As a number of online tributes attest, he is one of the most acclaimed singers of his generation.

Popular singer-songwriter Smokey Robinson (Being with You, Cruisin', Baby That's Backatcha, ...) has always liked to keep a bit of himself hidden from view. At 84th birthday, he remains a man of many facets.

Robinson, a cultural icon

Born William Robinson in Detroit on February 19, 1940, his career spans an arc over many different eras and tastes in American history. Robinson's not just a great singer, he's an inspiration, an icon and a successful business man. At this point in his career, there seems to be little Smokey hasn't done.

And we've got a feeling the next 12 months are going to be even bigger and better for Smokey Robinson as he promises more to come. After all, he's only 84.

Happy Birthday, Smokey, you're the best!
