He Is Really The Only Person Who Is In 5 Different" MUSIC HALLS FAMES" Country, R&B, Gospel, Rock & Roll, And HillBilly, Know One In. The Music Business To this Day, PERIOD NO ONE. He Is The Musical Messiah, Country And Gospel Artists That Maybe, The Only Two That Could Be In Two HALLOf FAMES
He is the king of all music, no matter what I don’t care who it is he has sold more than anybody ever will. There’s nobody close to his talents, humanity spirit he was the greatest the world will ever see. No one will ever come close to his voice.
People get so caught up in the title "The King" , Elvis didn't even like the title. The reason he has that title isn't because he was the first to do it, it's because he was the catalyst that brought it to the masses. He opened the doors and made it cool for everyone to listen to this type of music. Without Elvis where would we be as a society today? Elvis started the breakdown of racial barriers & that was an extraordinarily brave thing to do considering this was the 1950's and in the deep south. I really wish more people, like yourself, did their own research and wouldn't just assume things they hear are true because they are really missing out on an incredible talent, man & human being who truly is worth of the title "King".
I could listen to that Rev W Hubert guy preach all day. I love his speech patterns and pauses to make his point. He must've been a great preacher!
"that type of voice that agreed with a thought of Calvary."
man, that gives me chills.
Let’s get something straight, Elvis didn’t steal anything. Influenced? Yes. Stole, not even close.
Amen, been saying that for years.
And another point, Elvis covered some blues songs, which means he recorded it AFTER the original artist already had their own hit with it.... just as Sammy Davis did with pop ballads, MJackson did with all kinds of other music, and Tina Turner did with Proud Mary from the group CCR, and Charlie Pride did with Hank Williams music, etc etc etc In Elvis' case, he covered more genres than probably any other, and usually was commercially sucessful in those different styles. Elvis was equally influenced by Country & Pop Ballads, and covered so many of them, blues were only a fraction of his catalog. What his haters are really saying is that elvis should not be allowed to cover blues.
So thrilled you are reacting to this. You will see how much abuse he took. I lived in the 50's and it was even worse than this documentary. I pray Lisa is with her beloved son and father. Love you girl.
Great reaction thanks.you are right…It’s called INSPIRATION …every human is inspired by others. Elvis was just expressing what he grew up with.
The King does not mean the first it means the best and most successful he was hands down and that is the name of that tune.
Thanks for doing this...!!! People need to see this I've seen it so many times but I am VERY Upset with the Commenters here WE LOST OUR LISA MARIE..... AND ALL YOU CAN DO IS TALK ABOUT THE VIDEO AND NOT ONE THING ABOUT LMP!!!!!! AND THIS WAS RIGHT AFTER SHE PASSED AWAY AND NOW RILEY FINLEY AND HARPER NO LONGER HAVE THEIR MOMMA ...

He didn't like to be called the King he said the only King is Jesus Christ
Your enjoying learning about Elvis, and its cool. So, I'll request again....Elvis...A Generous Heart the short version and Elvis... King of Kindness.
P.S...You cant steal a culture and just because someone invents something doesn't make them the king of it. As another reactor said perfectly, Kobe,LeBron,Jordon didn't invent basketball, but they are the kings of it as well as others. Elvis had soul and he mashed country, hillbilly blues,gospel kinda all together. He did what he felt and what he was brought up on. You can't help what u were exposed to! He opened doors for music/musicians at that time!!!! He most certainly gave credit to where credit was do!!! So tired of people, not u, dissing him. Thank u for your Elvis reactions! TCB ⚡🌹❤
I did that one but RUclips has it on hold currently. 🥺
Elvis grew up in poverty and heard all different kinds of music, especially gospel, both black and white, the blues, etc. and created his own style.
17:34 Did you know he was a twin? His brother Jesse was born 30 minutes before him but he was a stillborn. That's why Elvis's mother Gladys was so protective of and clingy with him, scared of loosing her second son. They couldn't afford a baby coffin so they had to bury Jesse in a shoe box. Rumour has it that when he was a child Elvis used to go to Jesse's grave and talk to it when he was upset, and other rumours going around that in those last few years in Vegas he could be heard talking to himself like he was talking Jesse and that he genuinely believed that he could hear Jesse's voice in his head.
He placed a plaque to him in Graceland, Jesse Garon Presley (Elvis's middle name was Aaron so their middle names matched even if their first names didn't).
When Elvis died, James Brown made it his mission to go to his wake . James Brown stood by Elvis’ body and could not leave his side. He stood right by his coffin for well over three hours. He was the last to leave.
In fact, his security detail needed to hold him and physically assist him out of the room. James Brown was broken.
Soon after James Brown went into his studio to record a tribute to Elvis. Elvis' Love Me Tender. The Godfather of Soul changed the words around a bit to explain his emotions. This was real personal stuff for James Brown.
It’s a fantastic lesson in history and heartfelt and I think you’ll really like it. You might even find it perfect to do on your channel.

Thank you so much!!!
You could check out Elvis the king of kindness, a generous heart and also the video both versions of I got a feeling in my body by Elvis Presley and Michael Jackson. And also I got a feeling in my body by Elvis Presley 😊
You’re on point! Beautiful process.
The whole point and why people should understand you'd look at the beginning Elvis did not have it easy at all but yet he stay true to himself and became the greatest entertainer of all time remember he was also influenced by country and gospel I wish they showed more of the Little Richard interview that man loved Elvis also Chuck Berry , Bo Diddley, Fats Domino's all the ones who started in the beginning love Elvis Presley
As a white women I'm just as disturbed as you are to hear these "white folks" racist words. But I feel and pray that we've progressed so much from this racist mentality. Everyone, please keep moving forward and only judge people by their actions and their heart. Please leave color out of it and just love and look at the good when possible...

1935 on January 8 a huge star was born, but sadly in 1977 on august 16 we lost a great musician, a amazing singer, but we also lost a amazing humanitarian that helped so many people that he did not even know.
Today over 46 years after his death, people are still calling Elvis the King of Rock'n'Roll (he said that Chubby Checker was the one that should be called King of Rock'n roll, if any human should), Elvis didn't like that title and he believed that the only King was God and he actually told this to his fans several times, he said:
I believe that God is the only true king, sometimes he added Jesus Christ.
I think that Elvis is a MASTER not only of king of Rock'n roll, he is A MASTER of many genres of music because he can sing very well in any genre, but what do you think, is he good enough to be called a music king?
Elvis was really in my mind, a MASTER of GOSPEL and other music, no one does it better then him, he is best known for making Rock'n roll famous, so he was called The King of Rock'n roll, but he never liked that people called him that, he repeatedly stopped fans who said that he was the king of rock'n roll, telling them:
I'm just an entertainer and singer, God is the only true King (sometimes he also said Jesus Christ is the only King)...
He also never liked the "so called joke" Elvis the Pelvis, he loved Jokes, but that was for him very hurtful to hear people say, or write that.
Did you know that Elvis was a Sandy Blonde with Blue Eyes...
Elvis was born in the poor part of Tupelo Mississippi (in a shotgun house) and it was mainly Afro Americans living there, at the place where Elvis family lived there only lived 3 more white families, the rest was colored people, his family was dirt poor until he became an artist after singing in a mainly colored peoples church during his childhood.
Did you know that he had several friends that where Afro Americans, one of his friends where James Brown, yes THAT James Brown (The King of Soul), another artist was B.B King, yes that B.B King...
He also was a good friend with Mohamed Ali, yes the GREATEST boxer of all time, he even had a Robe made for him, but it was to much bling on it so Ali wouldn't where it more then one time to a fight.
Elvis really admired Martin Luther King very much, Elvis felt that all people are equal, unfortunately he never got to meet him, that would have created to much problems for both of them at that time.
He had several medical problems, Glaucoma, (Insomnia) sleeping problems, irritable bowel syndrome, things that affected his real life and made him need medication to function.
Yes, he took medicines that today are considered to be called drugs, but at that time doctors prescribed it to him and to ordinary people, they did not know of the problems it could give people (side effects).
He never took any so-called street drugs, but unfortunately he did not realize that those medications would be a problem for him, he thought that they where ordinary medicine because his doctor prescribed them to him and to everyone else that needed it.
Many out of his relatives died at a relatively young age, so even if he wouldn't have the medication, he might have died at about the same age.
He could never be alone and thus himself, at that time the word superstar did not exist, so nothing could prepare him for that kind of life.
Did you know that a big group of white people actually smashed his records and wanted to ban his music, just because they called the music he did so called N... music, that is so painful to think that some people actually can think like that, skin color is just color and nothing more, when will people start to realize that?
There are some videos of when Elvis joking and messing up, he loved to joke around and pretend that he did not have control, but he had total control, he actually conducted his musicians and back up choirs all the time !
He is the only person to have 60 records gone to sell Gold since he died.
Elvis is also in almost every genre of Music Hall of Fame (5 that I'm sure of Rock 'n' Roll, Country, Gospel, Rockabilly and Rhythm and Blues), if Gospel is a genre in Music Hall of fame, then he should be in there to, but no one else is in more then perhaps 2 genres.
Not bad for someone who failed in his music class (in school, he got a F), he also never took a single singing lesson, yes he sang in church so perhaps he learned a little there, right?
Something else that people tend to overlook:
He always conducts his musicians and backup singers, he never gets credit for being able to doing that.
Imagen you are a singer, you have great Musicians, you have great backup singers, no Guest Artists, no Auto tune, no Lip singing and no Fireworks, now all is about your skill, could you handle that pressure?
At the time when Elvis started to perform, Auto tune did not exist yet and when it became available, then he still did not use it, he did not need to, he always sang so that you could hear every word that he sang, the Fans always felt that he sang to just you !
That is what Elvis did in over 1600 concerts (during his 20 years as an artist), despite having problems with his health, like his Glaucoma, the headlights must have hurt his eyes like crazy.
He sang over 800 songs, I wonder how he could remember them all, he never wrote a song himself, so he had to remember other peoples lyrics, well that is amazing in it self.
The fact that he had Glaucoma must have been difficult being in the headlights all the time, that could be why he sometimes closes his eyes, but also sometimes squinting!
This unfortunately made him temporary blind after the shows, that is why they led him of the stage and into his car, that is something that not many people knew about Elvis.
Elvis suits was made of 100% Polyester, or 100 cotton (I'm not sure witch one), it was originally a karate suit, it was very light, but it was hot, so it made him sweat a lot, he got some bad press about that, but if you give it all then you will sweat, it should be positive, right?
A important fact about Elvis success is his guitarist James Burton's sound, it was a big fact that made him sound different, naturally his voice is the main factor for his success to, I think both things played a crucial role in his success...
About the deep base voiced JD Sumner (a member of The Stamps Quartet) he is a Basso Profundo, I think it's called that, it is the deepest base singer there is.
A video about him helping others, look at this: ruclips.net/video/CrJ1c9tm-C0/видео.html
Elvis made a show where all the money went to build the Memorial after Pearl Harbor, he talked to the nations about taking the Polio vaccine, Elvis took the first injection himself, he helped by donating a big amount of money to St Jude hospital, they fight against cancer (especially children with), he gave away loads of jewelry, gave away cars, he even gave away some houses to total strangers.
Elvis started an organization that helps people to get out of Homelessness (Presley Charitable Foundation), this organization helps people even now close to 50 years after he passed away.
A thing that you perhaps did not know: Elvis ALMOST NEVER did a show OUTSIDE OF USA, yes he did sing a few times in Canada: 4 concerts, 2 times in Toronto, 1 time in Ottawa and 1 time in Vancouver (during the 50:s?).
When the Aloha From Hawaii (Live in Honolulu 1973) was showed it had close to 1.5 Billion viewers from around the whole world and 3.7 billion people lived on earth at this time, so it was close to 1/3 of all of the population on the earth that viewed the show, it was the first time a single artist was shown LIVE around the globe.
Video of Mohammad Ali speech after Elvis died:

I have to say that I loved being at Graceland and seeing his home, first we were at the shotgun house in Tupelo Mississippi where he lived in his early years, he was born there !
You don't have a guide taking you on a tour, you can go all over yourself, but stay outside of the ropes and do not attempt to go upstairs, the outside is huge, so is the house, but you don't realize that from the front of the house.
I don't regret for a second that I was there, or that I stood at his grave site and said out loud that this is for the humanitarian Elvis/the person/the man and then I gave him a military salute, the others there just looked at me and asked if I didn't like his music.
So I told them that he was clearly one of the best singers and artists ever, but I loved his big heart more, he helped so many people without getting credit for it, he didn't want the credit of helping others, he did it out of love and respect and to me that is what true charity is all about.
This PLACE (GRACELAND) should be a protected part of music history and also American history forever, I think that people will keep coming for years and years and years to come !
Elvis did lots of things for America to, he helped in a big way to avoid getting Polio (he took the vaccine in a TV show and that made the interest for taking the vaccine to go up from 0,6 % all the way up to 80 % in 6 months), so in 6 months he got 79.4 % more of the American people take the Polio vaccine and shortly after it was eradicated from USA, he also helped in the fight to defeat Cancer by helping to build up St Jude's children cancer treatment clinic by donating a huge amount of money to them, he also helped to build the Memorial over Pearl Harbor and many other things!
I saw Elvis perform when I was young, wonderful entertainer, please understand this....the press, promoters gave him the title "King of Rock n Roll" never think he think that to be true. This title triggers some people, but he repeated that there was only one King and that was Christ.
Take it from me I grew up with Elvis, all he did was expose to the world the a different type of music that he grew up with in Mississippi and Memphis, and was criticized by both communities, but as many that he either think he stole from them or the ones that thought he was exposing to their children music that they knew would open up black artists to their world.
Thank God Elvis overcame both.
I love reaction videos I just found your channel with this video and I don't know where your from but I'm from southwestern Virginia on the border of west Virginia and a few hours from Tennessee and North Carolina and your accent is so much like mine I figure your from somewhere near its nice to hear anyway keep it up love it
💜💜💜 I was raised in Georgia 😂
This was an excellent reaction. Let me ask you a few questions - feel free to respond if you like.
If you were alive back then, or Elvis were alive today and you had an opportunity to see him in concert, would you go? Who would you bring? Would you be excited? Why?
Thank you for your awesome channel!
Thank you!! I appreciate you taking the time to watch! If I was alive back then I would most definitely go see him in concert. I know time back then was different.
My mom LOVES him by the way. Lol
@@MsBerryReacts Yea I remember that you've mentioned that in your reactions before. I learned about Elvis the same way. My mother owned the Love Me Tender album and my Dad owned the Live in Madison Square Garden 8 track cassette. (Yes -- 8 track! ;) it was a 70s thang hahaha)
Thanks for getting back to me I couldn't remember your name so now I can watch you some more your so cool😁
remember...there are 2 parts to this.
I remember. I mentioned it in the video. 🙃
before elvie their was blues and soul elvis used those country and gosphel to get what he sang and elvis first hit was in 1954 thats alright moma little richard chuck barry james brown jerry lee lewis first hit was 1955 or later look it up i did
There's a interview a reporter ask Elvis who is the king of rock n roll and Elvis said fats dionno. It's on film
Elvis said at different times that the King of Rock was Chubby checker
I was 12 yers old when I heard he died I was listening on the Radio and the radio man said sad news Elvis presley has died !😢
I found a interview with Charlie Hogde, one of Elvis best friends, he says that Elvis had 3 heart attacks before he died, that is why he became so bloated.
Charlie also says that Dr Nick (Elvis doctor) said to him that:
This is in confidence, Elvis have Bone cancer, I put in the link to where he says this:

I think some people are too wrapped up in turning Rock and Roll into a racial thing. Even the biggest hits in the early 50's were by 2 white guys (Hound Dog among them) Jerry Leiber and Mike Stoller en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jerry_Leiber_and_Mike_Stoller Carole King wrote some of the biggest hits song by black artists (Up On The Roof, One Fine Day, You Make Me Fell Like A Natural Woman and many more). Rap samples white artists. To me, Rock and Roll tore down the color barrier so I wish others wouldn't try to re-erect it.
Big Mama Thornton bought that song from a black man
Make sure and watch part two of this documentary
Elvis never liked that title. He would most definitely tell you he’s not the King. But that’s what people decided to call him
I agree with you you so cool
I watched this again on my other phone I love the way you think so cool not hard to look at either😁
You Probably Didn't Know That Whitney Houston's Mother Gospel Singer Cissy Houston SangBackground Elvis Presley & Aretha Franklin .
I did! 💜💜
Please React To Elvis Presley & The Black Community Part 2.
You need to open your mind to the facts of the days Elvis started. MUCH WORSE THEN…despite the fact it still exists in some people’s warped minds now. God bless
Sammy Davis Jr were great friends fir life that's real.
Elvis never claimed to be the king!!!
The reason why Elvis joined the military is because he was arrested because of his music and was given the choice of prison or joining the military
Yes!! I seen how it went down in his movie!
Wrong.
Elvis a thought of Calvary,that's Jesus on the cross,I seen your video always didn't steal anything he was inspired right,and the racist thing was a rumor!
What’s the issue with being called king of rock…MJ is called king of pop, James brown was godfather of sound, Tina turner was called queen of rock….all names but talented all.….
He was inspired, not stole. If I’m inspired by a country song and sing it, am I stealing it?
Here is another good one. It is Angelina Jordan's tribute to Lisa Marie Presley's death.
ruclips.net/video/t48mR8uwI20/видео.html
hey rookie if you dont know samy davis u dont know nothing, tnks fropm brazil ur welcome, remenber the king
I DO KNOW HIM. I RECOGNIZED him but I don’t see him in my face but every blue moon so I couldn’t think of his name off back. 😂😂😂 Also, I’m not a newbie 🙃 thank you for watching!!!!!!! 💜
Alot of people think MJ is king of basketball and it was created by a white guy. Don't matter the color. But....Chuck Berry is the creator of rock n roll
Pop was there long before MJ but he’s called king of pop. No issue there. Soul was there before James brown but he’s Godfather of Soul. People, don’t take the title so literally..
Play,are you llonnirst y
Michael Jackson didn’t invent pop, but he’s considered the King of pop because of what he brought to it. In that way, Elvis is the same for rock n roll. Elvis did open the door for black artists, doors that were slammed shut before. Elvis loved R & B and gospel because he was around it. Instead of slamming Elvis and accusing him of stealing from the black community, you’d think he’d be championed instead because he embraced and indeed, promoted it, and caught hell from white racists for doing so in the 50s…and yet he continued. This is gonna sound controversial but it sounds like Elvis is experiencing racism from some in the black community.
I just dont get the argument that he is not the king of rock`n roll because there were people that came before him??
I mean, MJ is not the king of pop either then. After all, pop music was sung by white folks before MJ....
Dick van dyke did the moon walk back in the 50s.
Can you PLEASE react to the new Elvis movie?! It shows how he grew up.
...Erasing Elvis other Influences...........
This documentary is fine if it's purpose is to just show how elvis should relate to the community. But unfortunately there's alot missing from it and the 2023 Elvis bio pic which have erased Country Music, Bluegrass, Classical, Opera, Pop Ballads and mainstream (non blues)Gospel that influenced Elvis. If you listen to Elvis in the out-takes from the Elvis on Tour film, he cited a ton of influences, yet the modern view of Elvis is he's ONLY a product of R&B... and that Rock & Roll is identical to R&B with no other components.
American popular music (and the evolution of rock music) is derived from many sources, not just one. From the very start at Sun Studios 1953-55, Elvis catalog of music was Ballads, Bluegrass, Country, Gospel (white & black), and of course R&B. If you compare the original versions of the songs he covered from these genres, then listen to Elvis' cover, you'll see the morphing Rock music before your eyes.
Please save the rants for the end of the video, you talk too much
Please save the BS for somebody else’s comments, IDGAF! Go run ya life, NOT mine. 🥴
You cared enough to respond. IJS, but good luck with your channel
Damn Elvis Presley
