Black History : The Man Who Wrote Elvis Presley’S Biggest Hits'' #blackhistory #america#shorts

Otis Blackwell was the songwriter behind some of Elvis Presley’s biggest hits, including “Don’t Be Cruel” and “All Shook Up.” In this rare interview clip, Blackwell explains how those songs were created, how he helped shape the vocal phrasing, and why he and Elvis never met in person.

His story sheds light on how Black artists shaped early rock ’n’ roll while often remaining invisible behind the scenes during a segregated music industry era. This clip captures one firsthand perspective from a songwriter whose work helped define a global sound.

Music history is complex, and this moment continues to spark conversations about credit, collaboration, and recognition in American popular music.
