Best Answer

He was a white man with the musical sound of a black man. He embodied both races, and enabled white people to enjoy and appreciate "black" music. Also with the provocative gyrations he did when performing, he made it okay to be sexual. At first many were appalled by such actions, but he influenced people to be like him and express their sexuality.
