I recently saw grime punk duo Bob Vylan and one of their pre-song rants was very anti-Elvis for this reason. It's become pretty lazy accepted wisdom and stating is nowhere near as ballsy as when Chuck D (who has since softened and publicly admitted to being an Elvis fan) did it 30 years ago. Attacking Elvis for having underage relationships is fairer game.
