Elvis Presley, known as the "King of Rock and Roll," was a cultural icon whose influence on music and pop culture remains unparalleled. Born on January 8, 1935, in Tupelo, Mississippi, he began his career in 1954 with Sun Records, blending gospel, blues, and country into a revolutionary rock and roll sound. Despite his global fame, Elvis was deeply humble and devoted to his roots, famously recording over 800 songs but never writing any himself. A multifaceted talent, he starred in 31 films, becoming one of Hollywood's top box-office draws in the 1960s. Elvis served in the U.S. Army from 1958 to 1960, an unusual move for a star of his stature, further endearing him to fans. Known for his extravagant lifestyle, he lived at Graceland, his Memphis mansion, which is now a historic landmark. A lesser-known fact is that he had a black belt in karate, which influenced his stage movements. Elvis passed away on August 16, 1977, but his legacy endures, with millions visiting Graceland annually and his records continuing to captivate audiences worldwide.
