2010 Rock and Roll Hall of Fame
Time has come to determine which artists are worthy of induction into the prestigious Rock and Roll Hall of Fame. Top contenders include the iconic Kiss (who made excellent albums for about eight years and then, well, become a parody of themselves), Red Hot Chili Peppers, and LL Cool J. Even though that two rap acts have been inducted (Run-D.M.C. and Grandmaster Flash & the Furious Five), it seems odd that LL Cool J would make it in (even the Beastie Boys were declined membership in 2008). Seriously, can they give it to a man who is more well-known for his insane bod (yeah, I said it) than his musical catalogue? I would hope not (although he did have some killer tracks (see below)). Other first time ballot groups/artists include Genesis, Jimmy Cliff, The Hollies, and Laura Nyro. Other names on the ballot, who have been there before, are ABBA, Donna Summers, Darlene Love, the Stooges, and the Chantels. Of the twelve nominees, only five will be inducted.
