For the latest GRAMMY Rewind, we celebrate Atlanta rap giant Ludacris' 43rd birthday today, Sept. 11, and revisit his Best Rap Album win at the 2007 GRAMMYs. He won the award for his fifth studio album, Release Therapy, which dropped in September 2006 on Disturbing tha Peace/Def Jam. Its hit single, "Money Maker" featuring Pharrell Williams, would also win Best Rap Song that evening.
