21 is 33!

Everyone say “Happy Birthday” to 21 Savage.

The rapper properly celebrated another year of life with his 8th annual hometown birthday party – fully available for the public to pop out at.

This year’s theme threw it back to the heyday of R&B, for a “Showtime at The Apollo” style bash.

Over the weekend, Savage transformed Atlanta’s Electric Owl Studios into the golden era of R&B, turning the venue into a true 1990s scene for his biggest birthday bash yet.

Savage pulled out all the stops for 33, donning custom Jodeci (styled by Fatima), and tapping Keyshia Cole, Keith Sweat, Xscape, Kut Klose, Pleasure P, and more R&B legends to perform live on-stage.

The rapper gave us an inside look into the night with an exclusive photo diary.

“Had to do it big for my 33rd year of life. Showtime at the Apollo.”

“Best time of the year.”

“Metro my brother for life.”

”Brought in the R&B heavy hitters.”

“Jodeci kind of night 🐐 90s Slaughter King.”

“Keyshia Cole, Keith Sweat, Xscape, Kut Klose, Pleasure P, and more took the stage.”

“Night to remember. Thank you to everybody who came out for me.”
