SegaDreamFlashcrine I literally just said this to you too. Like Elvis aint my cup of tea but thats just cuz 50s Rock aint my jam for some reason, I like 60s and beyond tbh.
But I don't even fully blame Elvis for what happened to rock moreso the media / executives that made him the face when he clearly was tryna at the very least acknowledge who came before him.
The media lowkey tried to make Eminem the face of rap in the 2000s but he had love for his peers and influences plus it was way harder to whitewash rap in comparison to 1950s rock seeing as how black artists were more visible
Eminem was different too cause rap was already a force whereas when Elvis put his first singles together it was at the exact same time that Chuck, Bo, Fats and Richard were crystallizing what would be called rock and roll and he really was right there at the very beginning but being white got all the credit. Not his fault but yeah i could see a big resentment about him getting all the credit.

i guess cause i dove into the history of rock so long ago i am fully acclimated and it doesnt even sound dusty to me anymore true, I might just have to condition myself to this like i did with 60s / 70s rock. Cuz I been listening to those guys for about a decade.
This song sounds good tho, might have to play it at a beach when the warm weather hits

part of me be like damn this era's aesthetic was so cool but then I'm like oh yeah they would've smoked me just for saying hi to a white woman
That continued up until the ‘90s in isolated cases

Honestly I never gave a s*** about Elvis's cover of I Got A Woman. Wasn't going to get any better than the original.
