Presley might have been the King had the Colonel not been on the scene...

Elvis and Berry are pretty hard to decide between. Chuck Berry was more innovative and more influential within music, in my opinion, but Elvis popularized the form to the public far and away the best of any early rock & roll star and was, of course, a great talent too.

Michael Jackson is the king of pop. Let him annex rock and unify the kingdoms.

Who should be king? Hmm... not sure but I think Ike Turner should get some credit as the father of rock 'n roll or something for writing "Rocket 88".

That's not a fair statement. Hendrix was even more popular during his time (I think), so it probably came as a shock to alot of people when he died. Plus....when Obama gets shot, you'll hear ALOT about him....and Obama and Hendrix are black. Let the bitchfest begin!
