Utopia Posted April 10, 2015 Share Posted April 10, 2015 The Stooges (inducted on their eighth nomination) and the Sex Pistols (who failed on their first five ballots) had trouble getting inducted, how much harder will it be for Mariah Carey, Janet Jackson and other recent pop stars? "It was easy enough in the beginning," says Jann Wenner, 69, chairman of the Rock Hall Foundation and founder, editor and publisher of Rolling Stone. "But at this point, all the clear, obvious people have been inducted, and it comes down to personal taste. Bitch WHAT? How are JJ and MC not an OBVIOUS choice for RRHOF ? WTF? How are two of the biggest influences on pop music not an obvious choice but a matter of taste? da fuk. This feels like the grammys all over again.

Mr. Wonder Posted April 10, 2015 Share Posted April 10, 2015 Bitch WHAT? How are JJ and MC not an OBVIOUS choice for RRHOF ? WTF? How are two of the biggest influences on pop music not an obvious choice but a matter of taste? da fuk. This feels like the grammys all over again. Honestly that last line is VERY telling. It basically says, merits are nothing....we induct based on ppl we like or whose music we like, rather than actual artistic excellence. I basically stopped reading the article right at that point. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bu. Posted April 10, 2015 Share Posted April 10, 2015 Pissed tbh. It's time to grab our golf clubs and go Perfect Patty on them 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bailey Posted April 11, 2015 Author Share Posted April 11, 2015 what got me is they said its only like 41 members that decide...I didnt realize just how anonymous and small this group was And at the line about having inducted pretty much everyone notable, so does this mean the R&R stops inducting? I don't think so, so as I said before, they will get somewhere at some point where the artists worth inducting left will be the ones they shouldve already put in including but not limited to Janet Jackson....Donna Summer, Barry White, LL Cool J, and many others Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bailey Posted April 11, 2015 Author Share Posted April 11, 2015 Pissed tbh. It's time to grab our golf clubs and go Perfect Patty on them one thing they have in common with the Grammy people (NARAS) is they are some old white dudes....and that shit is a problem for acts like Janet, they didn't snub Green Day of all groups, yet Janet Jackson hasn't even been nominated, I think Jimmy and Terry should be in it.....this is bullshit Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LawdToday Posted April 14, 2015 Share Posted April 14, 2015 Janet is more than deserving of a nomination. But we all know they aren't rushing to induct black women. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rock & Roll Hall of Game Posted April 14, 2015 Share Posted April 14, 2015 It has nothing to do with the color of her skin or gender Stop using her race and gender as some kinda of vice like there aren't any women of color inducted into the HOF Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bu. Posted April 14, 2015 Share Posted April 14, 2015 Her nipple ruined her chances tbh. Unless she comes back with a big era and the rich old men decide get over it then she won't ever get in there tbh. Bey/Rihanna/Taylor will probably get in before her tbh.

Laveaux Posted April 14, 2015 Share Posted April 14, 2015 Im sure if Janet wanted to be a part of she could make a case for herself and stroke a few ego's and kiss some ass, but that's not who she is. And as far as this being a black thing, Im not to certain considering that BET hasn't even giving her the respect she deserves but goes out of their way to give awards/honors to her peers...Mike, Prince, Whitney and Mariah. If Janet plays/played the game a lot of shit could happen for her but I honestly don't think that she gives a fuck and therefore neither do I. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stephen Hill who is a big producer over at BET said that he tried to get Janet back in 2011 to honor her at the BET Awards. He said that Janet turned it down because she was on tour. So yeah Janet ain't one of those who really relishes in getting awards like that I guess. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rock & Roll Hall of Game Posted April 14, 2015 Share Posted April 14, 2015 She was busy on tour. This is the same person who turned down key roles in film for touring Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rock & Roll Hall of Game Posted April 14, 2015 Share Posted April 14, 2015 There are plenty of black people in the R&R HOF... FACT Maybe it's Bc she's a woman.. But not Directly bc she's black.. If there's one thing black people can do, it is music.. You're way too caught up in this "Race War".. You express So much anger and hatred.. Very 1D..
