Grandmaster Flash has been inducted...WTF does that have to do with Rock. I think they need to change the name to the Music hall of fame and at least be honest about it.
http://www.futurerocklegends.com/The_Rap_Question.php Beastie Boys I can see since they skirted Rap/Metal...sorta...but that is still pushing it. Run DMC is about the only one I can see as they actually performed rock with Aerosmith. Other than that...either change the name or drop the rap artists. Seriously? And who the heck is this Laura Nyro chick? Shouldn't being a recognized part of rock be a criteria. I never heard of her until the other day. I was mistaken...JayZ inducted Grandmaster Flash...still a WTF moment... -----Original Message----- From: Maureen [mailto:mamamaur...@gmail.com] Sent: Tuesday, December 13, 2011 11:01 PM To: cf-community Subject: Re: Rock and Roll Hall of Discrimination? Jay-Z is not a member nor is he eligible, at least not as a performer. Coldplay also not eligible for Hall of Fame. They won't be for 10 years. Rules: Artists become eligible for induction 25 years after the release of their first record. Criteria include the influence and significance of the artists' contributions to the development and perpetuation of rock and roll.
