The man that laid the groundwork for black people in rock n’ roll music. Rest in peace Chuck Berry. 🕊️🎸

[@tyliekinc.]

Ike Turner did that actually in 1951 with Rocket 88

[@Moonewitch]

Which is why it's mind boggling when black people treat me differently because I listen to rock music. It was created by black people & country music as well.

[@Moonewitch]

​@@tyliekinc.That wasn't really "rock" though. Chuck's music was pure rock with a side of country. Ike's music was more soulful...not rock & roll based.

[@chairman76]

Bo Diddley 1955..Rock & Roll was underground music for a long time before the"mainstream" caught on. Kinda like Jazz ,Soul, Funk, R&B and Hip-hop

[@dodgeramsport01]

The man that laid the groundwork for Any color of people in rock n’ roll music! Hes the man Elvis wish's hs could have been!

[@bellejour559]

My favourite Chuck Berry moment is when he was onstage with John Lennon and Yoko Ono. Yoko started singing and someone had to cut her microphone it was so bad. The look on Chuck’s face was priceless. Thank you for covering his life. He was a very complex character who shaped the world of Rock and Roll to this day.

[@dodgeramsport01]

they should have cut John Lennon's mic also! Chuck didnt need them!

[@timmy841212]

Chuck wanted to eff Yoko up 😭

[@Icedee1981]

This man is a Rock God. The legendary Chuck Berry 🙌

[@beaniegee5129]

And this month has been 15 years since Cadillac Records came out in theaters. Happy 15th anniversary to Cadillac Records. That movie is a classic.

[@Moonewitch]

Mos Def was the right one to portray him in 'Cadillac Records.' He looks so much like him.

[@Dii552]

He definitely needs his own movie outside of Cadillac records!!

[@davidgerald133]

Cadillac records was...kind of garbage

[@starjunkie5328]

As an old white-girl guitarist, take it from me: Chuck was the real King of Rock. Such a badass guitarist and songwriter, too. I wanted to be Chuck Berry. Without Black music, there would be no rock n roll. NONE. Even the Mighty Led Zeppelin plagiarized a lot of Black blues musicians. Elvis was a brand, not a writer or musician worth a damn. Sister Rosetta Tharpe was a big inspiration to me, being a female. I love Black music, they were the real players/musicians. Miles Davis, Dizz, Count Basie, Ray Charles and Coltrane; all those jazzmen were incredible. Can't forget all of the great soul/blues music, either: Donnie Hathaway, Stevie, Marvin, B.B., Curtis Mayfield, Roberta Flack, Earth, Wind and Fire; the list goes on forever. It's great to see young Black people playing the instruments again, too. You know they're going to make a well-needed revival in music, and it will out-do anybody elses. Trust me on that.

[@RonaldWilliams-qh7zc]

👍🥁💯

[@missvida6251]

Ok virtue signaling white girl. We get it. But don't down play Elvis’s talents. He could dance and he could play guitar as well. And he contributed Chuck Berry as one of his aspirations. I hate when y'all do that.

[@cleftheart1969]

Chucky wasn't right in his personal life. But we can't deny how paved the way🙏🏾👏🏾🙌🏾

I saw the movie celebrating Chuck's 60th birthday. Is that the film you are talking about? OK it was called Hail, Hail Rock n Roll.

According to Keith Richard, Chuck Berry punched him in the face because he picked up Chuck’s guitar and started playing it without asking if it was ok.
