Everybody that's been around knows that elvis Presley, Jerry Lee Lewis Jimmy, swagger. All learned from black folks white people. Didn't want their kids listening to that type of music. Jimmy swagger. Learn how to preach from black churches. COGIC, the assemblies of God came out of the Church of God in christ. Most Rock and Roll Soul entertainers came out of the church. look it up

To be clear…. Otis Blackwell wrote Don’t be cruel and all shook up for Elvis…. Blackwell was a successful artist…. There are just way more white folks than there are black folks…. And racism was rampant during that time obviously…. But Blackwell wrote these for Elvis, ask Google…. Elvis was just exceedingly more successful and popular there’s really no comparing the two

Elvis did say he got his style of music from listening to black music. Although he didn't give direct credit to black artists. 🤔🤔

That knowledge has been around since the 70s, and 80s. And Elvis manager 😆😆😆the Colonel, managed a whole bushell of money from Elvis, straight into his private bank account. The lady Karma can be a mean lady. Everyone gets screwed in showbiz. 😆😆😆

Ppl died over the theft and loss of their lives and still are that why there’s so much hate bc they don’t want their lil precious kids to know that what that like to drink wear dance to drive and whatever else is stolen murdered over comes from other ppl. And they have to try to make even you believe that you don’t have the knowledge intelligence power ability to be great. When you come from greatness!!!! “🙏🏼God”

Oh no Elvis, you should have asked for permission. But since you thought you were the king of rock and roll you felt like you didn’t need to ask Mr. Blackwell

Guys, remember what truly made Elvis special was the fusion he did with Black American Blues. It was the sound the dancing the movement. If it were not for the Southern Black experience he would just have been another singer. Imitation is the best flattery. Was he wrong for stealing it yes. Do you think he was able to showcase that sound and music in front of a crowd that would never have heard it otherwise. Yes, two things can be true at the same time. Who knows what dominos he set in place for future Black American Southern Blues artists. I honestly believe Elvis loved Black American southern Blues and Rock. However maybe I’m biased because I’ve been to GraceLand and like the guy.
