King & Queen Of Pop, Rock & Soul? Okay, so Michael Jackson was the King of Pop. Elvis Presley was the King of Rock & Roll. Aretha is the Queen of Soul. Are there any artists who you feel have mastered all three genres? Who would you say is the King & Queen of Pop, Rock & Soul? My choices would be Prince and Tina Turner.

IMO... these titles are a bit silly,
anyway, here's my choices:
King Of Pop: Elton John Queen Of Pop: Donna Summer
King Of Sexual Funk: Prince Queen Of Sexual Funk: Hmm does she exist lol...
King Of Rock: Freddie Mercury Queen Of Rock: Kate Bush
King Of Soul: Marvin Gaye Queen Of Soul: Aretha Franklin
I have no idea what to call the self-proclaimed "King" Michael Jackson,
imo. MJ's music is not exactly "Pop",
Elton John has always been King Of Pop in my world. Prince 4Ever.  | |

You don't like her, fair, but overrated? On what grounds? | |

He likes writers and piano players, but Aretha did both, didn't she? | |

The original question was which two singers (male & female) do you feel have mastered all 3 genres and, therefore, could possibly be considered the King/Queen of Pop, Rock & Soul?. Haven't gotten too many responses to the original question. [Edited 11/8/10 18:10pm] "It's not nice to fuck with K.B.! All you haters will see!" - Kitbradley
