Yelawolf is celebrating his 46th birthday today. As a number of online tributes attest, he is one of the most acclaimed rappers of his generation.

Popular rapper Yelawolf (Let's Roll, ...) has always liked to keep a bit of himself hidden from view. At 46th birthday, he remains a man of many facets.

Yelawolf, a cultural icon

Born Michael Wayne Atha in Gadsden on December 30, 1979, his career spans an arc over many different eras and tastes in American history. Yelawolf's not just a great rapper, he's an inspiration, an icon and a successful business man. At this point in his career, there seems to be little Yelawolf hasn't done.

And we've got a feeling the next 12 months are going to be even bigger and better for Yelawolf as he promises more to come. After all, he's only 46.

Happy Birthday, Yelawolf, you're the best!
