*Elvis Presley*

Elvis Aaron Presley was born on January 8, 1935 in Tupelo, Mississippi, and he died on August 16, 1977 in Memphis, Tennessee. He was a very good singer and guitar player, often named “King of the Rock and Roll” or “the King”.

His first performance was in Mississippi-Alabama Fair and Dairy Show, October 3, 1945, dressed as a cowboy and had 10 years. He began his career in 1954 in Memphis and he became the icon of the twentieth century popular music. During his career, he starred in 31 films, many of which were devoted to their songs. Recorded a total of 150 albums and won 14 Grammy nominations to the National Academy of arts and sciences. And he has led for many years, the list of highest grossing dead artists for their products.

We chose Elvis Presley because we think that he is a genius because he revolutionised the whole music world with his cool music. He was the spark that changed popular music an entire generation with his famous toupee, his singing style, his aggressive moves on stage, his charisma, and other qualities is what is currently allowed to be one of the greatest musical figures of history in other words, a genius.
