    Nah it doesn’t work like that. It’s not some linear equation. Some artists get left behind and Some stay. Those that’s stay are the ones who transcended music. Future hasn’t done that. By your logic niggas will have forgotten about Mike too and future will be known more than him.

    no because mike isn’t known like elvis is just through name and face

    his music known thats diffrent i wouldn’t make this argument for the beatles either

    To be fair Future could be bigger than Elvis

    The population was much smaller & music was less accessible

    Elvis just has a really big legacy & impact by being credited as the “ pioneer “ of the Rock genre even though he stole his stuff from black peoples

    I just said this

    Elvis stole his music from black people, married a 14 year old and was racist

    So I’ll gladly side with Future

    future made codeine crazy and march madness while that weirdo was making trash guitar pedo dust music!

    Except I don’t like Future

    Elvis has a bigger impact & legacy

    Future “ could “ be bigger because he lives in an era with a bigger population & can easily distribute his music

    Future fans been embarrassing themselves as of late

    nah the whole way this question is stated “do rap fans “ is kind of looking down on rap but my overall point was in anyway u classify bigger rn future is that... unless ur talking about name Recognition in which elvis has him beat but in 60 years more people will know future that’s a given based on how time works

    those ppl u mentioned are a given imo

    I mean... more people know who George Washington is then they do William McKinley, they were both presidents.

    Some people transcend their genre and time. Elvis is one of those people.

    Not a chance, Elvis was so big he was the main star in Hollywood films and could barely act. Man was far larger, this is why numbers lie.

    Yeah and those movies had like 500k -5M budgets Also a lot of them flopped

    Elvis’s reputation and legacy is tainted people thought he would’ve betn one of the most greatest an iconic artist in the future but his trajectory didn’t quite reach it because almost all our artists and people who know music realize that Elvis appropriated a lot of the work he’s done. The people who were calling Elvis the biggest artist didnt except in a million years that right now the biggest genre in the world would be trap music or rap artists that have no connection to Elvis probably most honestly artist like Rick James or Chuck Berry truly are the most influential and impactful artists
