Elvis Aaron Presley, beroemd als "The King of Rock 'n' Roll", was een pionier van rockabilly, een dynamische fusie van country en rhythm and blues. Zijn innovatieve herinterpretaties van bestaande nummers, die "zwarte" en "witte" muzikale invloeden vermengden, katapulteerden hem naar wijdverbreide faam terwijl hij tegelijkertijd controverses aanwakkerde, versterkt door zijn ongeremde podium- en televisieoptredens. Naast zijn iconische rockanthems toonde Presley een opmerkelijke vocale veelzijdigheid en behaalde hij aanzienlijk succes in diverse genres, waaronder gospel, blues, ballades en pop. Hij blijft een van de bestverkopende en meest invloedrijke artiesten in de geschiedenis van de populaire muziek, die blijvende records vestigde voor concertbezoek, kijkcijfers en plaatverkopen.
