Elvis was kinda like Eminem. Rock and roll was very much a thing before, but like with Eminem, what was once an art often performed by black artists and relegated to black audiences really broke out into the mainstream and became something EVERYONE listened to. And like Eminem, Elvis was also actually very respectful when it came to crediting their influences and inspirations while doing well distinguish himself and his art. As far as the "stealing" of black music and exploitation of black art and artists goes, that falls squarely on the record labels.

@@peaceandquiet290lol you’re the bitter person. Look at the reaction from the girls 😅 they don’t call him the king for nothing.

People need to understand what this video represents. You are seeing the first superstar in history. The moves he was doing on stage had never been seen before on television. They were common in the south (where he was from) but conservative adults had never seen anything like this. It was exceptionally provocative. MANY church groups, parents, conservatives rallied together to boycott Elvis. They even had a class-action lawsuit against the Ed Sullivan show for broadcasting "such filth". This is the birth of rock and roll. You hear those girls screaming constantly. This is really the first time that had happened in history, especially for television. Some doo-wop singers were famous/handsome and the girls would get excited over them but Elvis was such a different story. He was such a disruptor in the 50's and singlehandedly changed the culture of the nation. If I recall correctly The Ed Sullivan show was made aware of the dance moves that Elvis was going to do and the FCC or someone wanted a close camera angle on his upper body so the audience at home would not be able to see the dance moves. I believe the show ignored that and showed his entire body, which results in an FCC lawsuit. I could be wrong about the details but I recall there was significant controversy PRIOR to the show deciding to go with that camera angle. You can see that up until @1:13 they stay with a close shot and they INTENTIONALLY slowly pull back and then Elvis does his moves. Elvis also keeps laughing while singing because this fangirl thing was new to the world. He likely thought it was ridiculous how crazy they were going.

I would say this performance was the birth of the first true pop star, but Elvis should not get credit for the birth of rock and roll.

I love watching this clip because it shows how fun and silly he must have been. His live performances are always better than his practiced, choreographed movie performances, in my opinion.

Sometimes I actually tear up watching his live performances. We don’t see artists like Elvis anymore, he had it all….authenticity, raw talent, genuine good looks, a sweet though tortured soul, no auto tuning, playful, fun and he loved his mama. Tragic he died so young. It would have been a privilege to see him grow old…he would have been such a handsome silver fox.

His life went by so fast, he came out In 54, four years later he went in the Army, came back and went to Hollywood for just 7 years, in 68 he did a "comeback" special (as if he really needed it). And then ten short years later he died. He wasn't with us very long at all

Even watching this in 2022, you can feel Elvis’s energy! His charisma is off the charts 😳

Wife's account. The absolute birth of rock @ roll a true legend I don't give a f what anyone says he was the Ipitime of Cool even after all these years.

Elvis grew up dirt poor. He never forgot his roots. He once said that his generosity to others wasn't because he could. He was generous because he knew how it felt to have nothing and he never wanted anyone to feel that way. Very empathetic man and very humble. Truly God sent. I feel so anyway.

His pre-army performances were Elvis at his purest and happiest, which is why I absolutely love watching his performances over and over again! Talent, looks, charisma - it's a shame they tried to tamp this energy down, and make him 'family friendly' then send him off to the Army when they couldn't do it - imagine how much more his star would have shown if the Colonel would have encouraged his talent rather than suppress it!
