21. "not so sure he gets in honestly... as far as Black artists " In response to In response to 20
the hall of fame was pretty open about letting say you're pure R&B guys in ....like Al Green and the like....but as we move towards more recent R&B acts...I'm not so sure they will be as quick to put them in....
I mean especially since there are still acts and groups like Rick James....Cameo...Zapp and Roger...have yet to get in ...and I would certainly say deserve to get in before R.Kelly... ..
then you have more and more rappers and hip hop artists becoming eligible...surely NWA will get in ...probably next year...and LL Cool J and the like eventually...
I'm just saying there are a lot of artists..and more being added to the list who may not automatically get in right away ...that are going to be ahead of R.Kelly being considered...
I mean Luther Vandross would get in before R.Kelly....and they seem to be dragging their feet on him getting in.... Then you look at even this year....and band like Rush who was pretty huge...had to wait a long time to get in themselves..
it's going to be interesing how Black artists are treated in future induction classes...questions like Will they let older artists who may have been considered boarderline for the hall of fame...will they let them in before more recent artits like kells get considered?
