Crazy age we live in, Lets knock Elvis cause he was white!!

Elvis revolutionized Music forever but hey he was white, better if he was black, then we'd have to like him or pretend to or else be labeled racists

That old racist coin has two sides, the white racist and the black racist!!!!!

Respect to Bo, but Elvis sounded like nobody else ever, Elvis' version of Thats all right is a million light years away from Arthur Big Boys Original!!!!!!

@shakeahand1 He wasn't being a racist, whatever idiot put this video up didn't even put enough up for him to finish what he was saying

@shakeahand1 Would the times be less crazy if only black people were knocked?

@blazinbleezies And it doesn't really matter if Elvis was a great pianist/ guitarist/songwriter or what, it's the fact that Elvis was able to draw a crowd and still known today is extraordinary. Frank Sinatra wrote no songs, but he's a legend! People give no shit if you could write music, all they care about is what you give to them, and that's exactly what Elvis did!

[elvispresley11]

What? Who ever said that Elvis could play a 'couple' of chords? And in fact, if you could hit a few chords on a piano, that already means you can play the piano. It's like saying he can bike a few blocks, but it doesn't mean he can bike. Well, you can say he's a fraud all you want, it still won't change the fact that Elvis is the King of Rock n Roll. No matter how hard you try to tell me or the others in all the videos that Elvis was a fraud, Elvis will always be the King of Rock n Roll!

[blazinbleezies]

@elvispresley11 I can play a couple of chords on piano as well, but I wouldn't say I could play the piano.You're grasping at straws here buddy.Elvis is a fraud, deal with it.

[elvispresley11]

@blazinbleezies He can play a piano douche.

[arjunkaul]

Elvis isn't an influence on me or frankly any of my influences. Rock and Roll came from black people. THAT's an unshakable fact.

@oramikleepunk make sense dipshit, i was attacking some racist who disliked white performers doing black music...durrrr ????

[oramikleepunk]

@MrWaynejohn Racist like yourself disliked Rock n Roll in the 50's.

[oramikleepunk]

@shakeahand1 You seem like a nice person Shakeahand,but I think people should tell the whole story of music.From Alen Freed to the late 50's.
