The stupidity and racism shown by self described ‘real’ blacks is unreal. Did whites call Elvis Presley a race traitor? Hell, no. Did whites put down Presley for ‘acting black.’? Hell, no.
I know a lot of blacks resented him for singing ‘their’ music, but whites didn’t.

“I know a lot of blacks resented him for singing ‘their’ music, but whites didn’t.”

What they didn’t realize is that the white artists brought the black RnB into the crossover white market. Same with Pat Boone covering Little Richard records. Yuck.
