🎸 Happy Heavenly 99th Birthday to the Father of Rock & Roll — Chuck Berry

Before there was Elvis, before there were stadium tours or streaming charts — there was Chuck Berry.
He didn’t just play the guitar — he spoke through it. His riffs rewrote the language of music, his swagger shaped generations, and his lyrics gave rhythm to rebellion.

From “Johnny B. Goode” to “Maybellene,” Chuck Berry turned teenage dreams into timeless anthems.
Every chord you hear in rock, pop, or even hip-hop still carries his fingerprints.

Today, we honor the man who made the world move — with six strings and pure soul.
✨ Happy heavenly 99th, Chuck Berry.
Your sound didn’t just change music — it created it. 🎶💫

Happy heavenly 99th birthday to Chuck Berry 🕊️🕊️🎂🖤
