Chuck Berry was robbed as far as recognition for being one of the first pioneers of rock but he doesn't have enough relevance or hits in general to be considered rock's king. Elvis, as overrated as he is still deserves the title as far as record sales, overall impact, and being an almost myth-like legend. Besides, to be king of a certain genre of music doesn't necessarily mean to be the first of that genre.

he will always be remembered as the father of Rock N Roll...but the King goes to ... well....the King himself, Elvis Presley.......and his "students" .....Jimi Hendrix, Eddie Van Halen, Eric Clapton and even the Big Bopper and Richie Valens....
Vive Chuck Berry!

Chuck Berry was really up there, it must have been a hard decision with all the super stars that were in his league.

colonel tom parker was rock and roll's greatest manager. he made elvis famous more than elvis made elvis famous. if chuck berry would have had the Colonel, he'd be the king.

Elvis made it happen, chuck just came out with A sound.
He was also very hot adding to the popularity factor.
