대중 음악 아티스트를 설명할 때, 존칭은 주로 미디어나 팬들에 의해 아티스트의 중요성을 나타내기 위해 사용되며, 종종 종교적, 가족적 또는 가장 자주 왕실 및 귀족적인 칭호로 은유적으로 사용됩니다. 19세기 초만 해도 유럽의 클래식 음악에서는 모짜르트를 '현대 음악의 아버지', 바흐를 '현대 피아노 음악의 아버지'라고 부르는 등 존칭이 쓰였습니다.[1] 그들은 또한 남북전쟁 이후의 아프리카계 미국인 문화에서 특히 두드러졌는데, 아마도 노예제도에 의해 부정되었던 지위를 부여하기 위한 수단이었을 것이고,[2] 그 결과 듀크 엘링턴과 베이시 백작과 같은 인물들을 포함하여 초기 재즈와 블루스 음악에 진입했습니다.[3]
미국 문화에서 공화제 헌법과 이념에도 불구하고,[4] 왕당파의 존칭은 산업, 상업, 스포츠 및 미디어와 같은 다양한 활동 영역의 주요 인물을 설명하는 데 사용되었습니다. 아버지 또는 어머니는 혁신가를 위해 사용되었고, 왕과 여왕과 같은 왕족 칭호는 한 분야에서 지배적인 인물을 위해 사용되었습니다.[5][6] 1930년대와 1940년대에 재즈와 스윙 음악이 인기를 얻으면서, 더 많은 현대 아프리카계 미국인 예술가들이 있음에도 불구하고 각각 "재즈의 왕"과 "스윙의 왕"으로 알려지게 된 것은 상업적으로 더 성공한 백인 예술가 폴 화이트맨과 베니 굿맨이었습니다.[7]
이러한 명명 패턴은 1950년대에 등장하면서 로큰롤로 옮겨졌습니다. 엘비스 프레슬리와 가장 연관된 타이틀인 "락앤롤의 왕"을 찾으려는 시도가 잇따랐습니다.[8] 이것은 백인 지배층에 의한 당시의 새로운 음악의 혁신을 위한 신용의 전용 과정의 일부로 특징지어졌습니다.[9] 1990년대의 리틀 리처드에 의한 "로큰롤의 건축가"와 같은 장르의 다른 주요 인물들에게 다양한 존칭이 주어지거나 주어졌습니다.[10] 이 용어는 많은 사람들과 마찬가지로 선구적인 전기 기타리스트 레스 폴을 포함한 다른 중요한 인물들에게도 사용됩니다.[11]
1968년 디스크 자키 퍼비스 스판에 의해 무대에서 "영혼의 여왕"으로 등극한 아레사 프랭클린을 포함한 다른 장르에서도 비슷한 존칭이 붙여졌습니다.[12] 마이클 잭슨(Michael Jackson)과 마돈나(Madonna)는 1980년대부터 "팝의 왕과 여왕"이라는 용어와 밀접한 관련이 있습니다.[13][14][15] 몇몇 별명들은 다양한 예술가들에 의해 강력하게 공포되고 경쟁되었으며 [16]때때로 그들의 주제에 의해 거절되거나 경시되기도 했습니다.[17] 일부 주목할 만한 존칭은 일반적으로 사용되며 일반적으로 특정 개인과 동일시됩니다.
