Any bets as to whether Kiss or Deep Purple gets in…???? Both of them should have been in ages ago. Politics is such a stickey business. Can Kiss get into the Hip Hop Hall of Fame???? LL Cool J and NWA are already there and rightfully so. ” I want to Hip and Hop all night, and party everyday!!!” Just doesn’t work. And please, nothing against Hip Hop, I like NWA, wrong genre, wrong house.

You’re right Mikey. Rock N Roll Hall of Fame should be for that genre. Now there are a whole lot of great R & B Motown artists in there but they don’t belong in a R & R Hall of Fame. They should just call it the music hall of fame.

Not a big fan of them either but anyone who can sell out arenas around the world as long as they have deserves it.

It’s called “Hall of Fame” not the “Hall of musical integrity”. It’s a joke if you ask me.VH’s induction was more insulting than not being nominated..Paul Schafer bugs me more than Sammy bugs Vain!

Are they electing what Steven Demetre Georgiou did as Cat Stevens only or under Yusuf Islam also………just curious. And how the hell did Eric Clapton get in three times???? I was going to go on a rant about that, but I better keep my mouth shut………………..

Good point.. at least they deserve it more than LL or NWA.. I just can’t wrap my head around letting hip-hop into the RRHOF.

Yardbirds … Cream … and Eric Clapton solo.

It’s really hard to argue against any of those IMHO.

I put several others before Clapton, but he is one of the best without a doubt (as we all know)
He deserves all 3 entrances…..and an additional 4th entrance for his playing on “The Pros & Cons of Hitchhiking” alone!

@MonstersOfRock: Gene Simmons has shot down any hopes that Ace Frehley or Peter Criss would reunite with Kiss for the RNR Hall of Fame.
