Elvis Presley and Michael Jackson are two of the legendary figures of American pop culture. Both men have had a profound impact on the music world, and to avoid their tragic young and no-effect their fame are two sad stories, the pain many of their fans.

However, Elvis and MJ are both more reminiscent of the great successes, how to fight for after her experiences, and have had a big impact on how weMusic heard today.

Elvis is seen as a pioneer of rock music. The moment was seen as against the social norms that music in a provocative manner in which he broke down barriers and Elvis popularized a form of blues, was distributed in African American culture for the past many years to come. It was the biggest music sensation in 1950 and part of 1960.

Like Michael Jackson, his legacy is a new one, andliterally known as the most successful pop musicians ever to grace the planet. His work has included an incredible five decades ago when he began singing as a child with his brothers by the Jackson 5 in 1960.

Regarding the greatest influence, it is really difficult to answer this question definitively, since both prospered in different periods.

Here are some pieces of thinking, if they are:

Presley's seven-year contract with Paramount Pictures has taken him in many movies.A handful of them were built top film at the box office. Jackson has never been as successful at the box office. While in films such as The Wiz, his appearances on screen is usually limited to his videos. Then again, the video of Jackson were some of the most viewed of all time and can be considered as part as performance.

Jackson 's music was too mainstream for decades. Successful Top of the 60s, 70s, 80s, 90s, and even some in the first partthe 00s, his music at the top of the charts for a longer time. Elvis, faded on the other hand, a bit 'popularity in the late 60s and throws the focus on his actions on them.

In the end, it was the largest? It is really hard question to answer, since both affect millions and millions of people around the world.

Jackson's work seems more relevant today, but neither can it be possible if the obstacles seemed to break the Elvisdown.
