The movie "ELVIS" tells the life story of Elvis Presley, one of the most famous musicians of the 20th century. Born into poverty in Tupelo, Mississippi, Presley rose to stardom as a teenager in the 1950s. His style and sound were modeled largely after the Black musicians he listened to as a kid and adult.Presley is known as 'the King of Rock and Roll,' but his legacy is complicated. He earned fame and fortune by copying those Black artists who couldn't reach the same level of success because of the color of their skin.Along with the new film comes a new soundtrack featuring a bevy of top recording artists. The 1A Record Club listens to the "ELVIS" soundtrack and discusses the rocker's legacy.Want to support 1A?
