Elvis to many people now is a some sort of figure that was alive way before they ever were, but he would’ve “only” been 88 this year. He could totally still have been alive just based on age. Maybe he would have done a wired autocomplete interview.

@Karl Marx he didn’t die on the toilet. He collapsed and died on the floor. The heart attack was blamed on his years of drug usage, that’s true. The rest is bullshite.

I’d argue against that. Cardiovascular issues clearly run in his family. Just look at his daughter who died at the age of 55 (I think it was).

That’s odd. Elvis was influenced by black music. His music is basically black music. So based on that alone I’d think you’d enjoy his music.
Sigh
January 12, 2023 at 10:09 pm
@Stephen Gehly He wasn’t influenced by black music he stole it and gave the original creator no credit. Or royalties. He white washed it. Example: Hound Dog

@NoneOfTheAbove actually yes it literally is. If you don’t agree don’t reply. Also, Just because some black artist loved him didn’t mean anything.

@Sigh No, Elvis was many negative things. But he outwardly spoke about how influenced he was by black music. He never said a negative thing about black people. He was anti-racist, etc etc. I’m going to keep responding to you.

@Sigh However, as shown in a 1957 interview with Jet magazine, Elvis was always the first to give credit to the black community. “A lot of people seem to think I started this business, but rock ‘n’ roll was here a long time before I came along,” Elvis told Jet‘s Louie Robinson. “Nobody can sing that kind of music like colored people.

@Sigh “The Lord messed up on me in two ways – he didn’t make me black
and didn’t make me a bass singer.”
– Elvis Presley

January 14, 2023 at 6:17 am
@NoneOfTheAbove yeah, nobody can sing music like colored people, which is why he stole their music. The reality is the original black singer’s fame passed quickly because of white privilege, and Elvis rose to fame Riding off their backs because his music was the version that was played on white radio stations

@Sigh All you have is talk. I’m literally showing you different with receipts to prove it. But you keep dismissing them because you have an alternative facts narrative.

Paul is proof that Elvis would be alive today if he had did recreational drugs and not medical ones.
