The connection between Rolls-Royce and the world of popular music is almost as old as the recording industry itself. Of all models, Phantom – the pinnacle of the marque – is the Rolls-Royce most closely associated with the world of music. Over eight generations and 100 years – a centenary the nameplate celebrates in 2025 – this extraordinary motor car has been consistently chosen by some of the most creative and influential figures in musical history.
- Rolls-Royce celebrates the enduring links between Phantom and the world of music
- Spanning every era of modern music, from jazz and rock to rap and R&B
- Embraced by artists from Marlene Dietrich to Sir Elton John, John Lennon and 50 Cent
- Explores Phantom as a canvas for personal expression and an icon of icons
“From the Golden Age of Hollywood to the rise of hip-hop, over the last 100 years, music artists have used Phantom to project their identity and challenge convention. Their motor cars often became icons in their own right, with a lasting place in the history of modern music. This enduring connection reminds us that Rolls-Royce and the extraordinary people who are part of the marque’s story are united by one ambition: to make their presence felt.”
