Apelidos honorários na música popular são usados ou como uma forma de expressão na mídia, ou para homenagear a contribuição musical, ou identificar a importância de um artista para seus fãs.
Essas alcunhas são geralmente nomes religiosos, familiares ou (mais frequentemente) reais e aristocráticos em natureza. Foram usados na música erudita do início do século XIX, no período clássico europeu, com figuras como Mozart sendo chamado de "O pai da música moderna" e Bach "O pai da música moderna do piano". Também foram proeminentes na cultura afro-americana na era pós-Guerra Civil, talvez como um meio de conferir status que fora negado com a escravidão nos Estados Unidos, e em consequência incorporou a música do jazz e do blues, incluindo figuras como Duke Ellington e Count Basie.
Na cultura americana, apesar de sua constituição e ideologia republicana, honoríficos têm sido usados para descrever figuras líderes em várias áreas de atividade, como indústria, comércio, esporte e mídia; "pai" ou "mãe" foram usados para inovadores, e títulos reais como "rei" e "rainha" para figuras dominantes em um campo. Nas décadas de 1930 e 1940, enquanto o jazz e a música swing ganhavam popularidade, eram os artistas brancos mais bem-sucedidos comercialmente, Paul Whiteman e Benny Goodman que se tornaram conhecidos como "O Rei do Jazz" e "O Rei do Swing", respectivamente, apesar de tais gêneros de música originária da cultura afro-americana.
Estes padrões de nomeação foram transferidos para o rock and roll quando surgiu na década de 1950. Houve uma série de tentativas de encontrar (e um número de pretendentes a ser) o "Rei do Rock and Roll", um título que se tornou mais associado com Elvis Presley. Isso tem sido visto como parte de um processo de apropriação de crédito pela inovação da então nova música por um estabelecimento branco. Diferentes honoríficos foram tomados ou dados para outras figuras importantes do gênero, como "O Arquiteto do Rock and Roll", de Little Richard, da década de 1990, Mas este termo, como muitos, também é usado para outras figuras importantes, neste caso, incluindo o guitarrista pioneiro Les Paul.[1]
