Elvis has nothing on Eminem. Elvis didn't even write his own music or lyrics. Eminem will be around for a long time.
You're so right. Composing is the only way in which a musician can have credibility. Sinatra, Crosby, Sarah Vaughan, and Louis Armstrong didn't compose their own music either, and, as a result, their stuff is over-rated and will probably soon die away, unlike Eminem, who is truly eternal. Elvis presley was not all that great. The SUN SESSIONS are not an epochal moment in American music history. Eminem, however, is the truth and the light. skip h NP: Elvis Presley, The Complete 1950's Recordings (box set)
