A musical icon hits an incredible milestone today, as Bob Dylan turns 75 years old. After 5 decades of music and millions of albums sold, it’s no wonder it’s such a big story. He brought the protest song to the mainstream, he helped coin Rolling Stone’s name, and all these years after he started he is still recognized as a top tier songwriter. As a result, many took to Twitter to post their reactions to Dylan’s 75th.
The Tweets
Some decided to keep it simple, and congratulate an artist they admire greatly.
Others thought it might be fun to tweet out examples of Dylan’s great work.
