Makonnen is getting ready to celebrate his birthday on Tuesday, and he's announced on Twitter that he'll be bringing in the occasion with gifts for his fans. He begins the rollout today, sharing "I Remember Makonnen," which puts his impressive ability to freestyle off the dome on full display. The 10-minute verse finds him going through his career up until this point, reflecting on friendships, witnessing violent acts, and eventually finding himself as an artist.

We recently spoke to Makonnen for our latest digital cover story. His Drink More Water 6 project is available now. Look out for more birthday releases throughout the next few days.

Quotable Lyrics:
All the way with the moon
Ocean, sun, when it be snowing
I don't know how I got it
I'm so thankful for the flow and
My friends once again
When they come back around
