THE ONCE AND FUTURE KINGS Elvis Presley pop culture musical icons Limited Edition 9” x 12” signed paper print of artwork by Issa Ibrahim
This is a paper print of a painting from 2022 featuring the Father of Rock and Roll Chuck Berry and the trucker crowned king Elvis Presley. Nothing against Elvis, he broke it wide open but a lot of brothers, like Chuck, got burned and passed over…but it was the 50s and America wasn’t ready for so much Black excellence, one of the main reasons I’m painting this series…to document so we can remember. Notice they’re moving and grooving together in Rock and Roll Heaven, two stars surfing the cosmos, skipping from one record label to another as the backward and inverted notation to the reputed first rock and roll song ‘Rocket 88’ acts as the wave that becomes a tsunami.
9” x 12”, signed by the artist.
Comes with signed Certificate of Authenticity.
