Mustard received birthday wishes from JAY-Z as he rang in year 32 on Sunday (June 5).

Celebrating his milestone on Instagram, the West Coast producer shared a screenshot of him on FaceTime with Hov, Roc Nation vice president Jay Brown and Jigga’s close friend Emory “Vegas” Jones while enjoying a well-earned break by the pool.

Peers and collaborators including 2 Chainz, Moneybagg Yo, Fabolous, Don Toliver and Mozzy were among those who also wished Mustard a happy birthday in his comments section.

Thankfully, it doesn’t appear as though Mustard left JAY-Z hanging this time. During a 2014 appearance on Big Boy’s Neighborhood, the 10 Summers boss recalled accidentally hanging up on Hov while being courted for his Roc Nation label.

“It was early in the morning. He emailed and was like, ‘Yo, it’s Jay — as in Z. Do you got time to talk?'” Mustard said. “I’m like, ‘What?’ So I hit my manager and was like, ‘Yo, what’s JAY-Z’s email?’ And I’m like, ‘Damn, it’s the same email.’

“So I hit him back like, ‘Yep.’ Two seconds later he called. I’m like, ‘Hello?’ He like, ‘Yeah, this is Jay.’ I’m like, ‘No, it ain’t.’ Click.”

In his birthday Instagram post, Mustard also gave an update on his new album while reflecting on his latest trip around the sun.
