For those of you who say rap is not rock, your right. But this is NOT the ROCK Hall of fame. It's the ROCK AND ROLL Hall of Fame. Rap IS a sub-genre of Rock and Roll as is R&B, Soul, and Disco. As such, Eminem has had a tremendous impact on the sub-genre and deserves to be inducted.

Posted by Matt on Monday, 01/7/2013 @ 12:52pm

he's RAP!! not ROCK,RAP!!! this is the rock n roll hall of fame,not the rap hall of fame! please..so,if eminem get in,also other shit like Marrakesh(or how the hell he's named) should be in...PLEASE!

Posted by elisabetta on Saturday, 01/19/2013 @ 05:13am

I'll never get this logic that'll happily allow soul, folk, country, jazz, disco and reggae yet draws the line at rap.

Posted by GFW on Saturday, 01/19/2013 @ 12:21pm

I know Eminem isn't rock, but neither was ABBA. If they can get in, I think Eminem should, too. The Rock and Roll Hall of Fame is clearly changing to reflect modern times and all of the many genres people listen to, now.

Posted by Hailey on Monday, 02/11/2013 @ 09:55am

I love how butthurt people get over this. It's a pretty simple concept -- talented, influential artists who fall under the Rock and Roll umbrella get inducted. Eminem fits all that criteria. If you don't believe that, you're just deluding yourself. If you can't come up with anything more intelligent than "omg EMINEM ISN'T ROCK HE SHOULD GO DIEE!!!11" then please, by all means, drink an eighth of vodka so I can dare you to drive.

I just don't understand why so many people say Eminem soundn't be in the Hall of Fame. He is one of the few white rappers to be successful and his music has really had an impact on the world of music. "I'm Not Afraid" is one of the most uplifting songs I've ever heard and Eminem isn't like a lot of rappers who just whine about their problems. He needs to be in the RNRHOF.

Posted by Andrew on Tuesday, 05/21/2013 @ 13:45pm

When the hell did Rap R&B Pop, and hip hop become rock n roll. Someone please explain to me why when true rock artists like Iron Maiden can't get in because Public Enemy and other non Rock n roll artists can't get in. At least country music got it right. Its a simple friggin solution make a hall for other music forms. Not that there aren't cross over acts that should be included such as Johnny Cash, but keep the hall for REAL rock artists.

My question is, what exactly did he do FOR rock? I can understand letting in the early rappers who used turntables to cut & scratch records, as that technique actually surfaced later on in rock acts. Thing is, rapping, in & of itself, has done nothing for rock. It didn't change any elements of the jam, it didn't re-invent any musical instruments, it didn't re-invent any styles of playing.

Eminem was a successful rapper, but that's all he was. He didn't really do anything special For rock. He sampled like any other rapper, but that's nothing big at this point. His induction merits are the same as Britney, N'Sync, etc., which in the end run is just about shining a spotlight on the "star" while they perform.

You could get the same effect from a Broadway show, but you wouldn't put Stephen Sondheim in the Rock Hall. Why put Eminem in?

"When the hell did Rap R&B Pop, and hip hop become rock n roll."

Always interesting to me that the black dominated subgenres of RnR draw outrage from rockists, while white dominated subgenres like Prog and Metal, which no more or less fit a purist definition of "Rock n Roll", are embraced and even held up as an example of purity. They all elvolved from the same root and I've never seen a valid or even mildly compelling case presented that Metal or Prog or 70s Hard Rock are RnR, but Hip Hop, R&B or Pop aren't. tracing their mutual ancestry, either they all are or they all are not. If we throw any subgenres out, we have to throw them all out and go back to a seminal, purist definition of RnR which would leave us with a very bland HoF with few acts who came after the early to mid-60s. This whole debate and the thinly veiled racism behind it is really cliche and played out.

No need to apologize for anything here. You've a right to speak your mind, so do it!

I was simply noting that Eminem has done very little in the realm of rock. As I said earlier, the first 10 yrs. or so of hip-hop introduced elements that directly affected rock, musically speaking. I've never had a problem w/the idea that Grandmaster Flash, Kurtis Blow, Run D.M.C., the Fat Boys, Sugarhill Gang, or anyone from that time would be inducted. All the stuff you see up till 85/86 is really interesting, & you can see the genuine innovation that touched everyone from Faith No More to Rage Against the Machine to Incubus.

It's what came afterwards that's questionable. People like Tupac, Biggie Smalls, Eminem, etc., are probably going to get in, but in all honesty, just what DID they do for rock as a music? Nothing, when you think about it. I don't think anyone wants to acknowledge this, & it'll all be glossed over, but this is just a case of media hype driving the train.

Still, the Hall has shown a willingness to go in this direction, so no one should feel a need to complain when they do get in...

btw - don't worry about me. I don't run around busting people's chops, I won't try to harass you like some other idiots do, & while I can get upset from time to time, it takes an awful lot to really piss me off.

Alright, maybe I'm the only one here that listens to all sorts of genre, but come on. The Rock and Roll hall of fame is for anyone who has changed the game of Rock. Even musicians from other genres can influence rock musicians. A lot of newer musicians and bands have used his methods and rap influence to change their own style to sound more unique. And that, my dear friends, is why he deserves to be in this hall of fame.

All you have to do is read the list of those that are already in.Run DMC, Beastie Boys, Public Enemy, Grandmaster Flash. The Hall is not just Led Zep, iconic Rap, Funk, and yes even Disco acts are allowed in too. Eminem pretty much was the face of his era. If he's not in 1st or 2nd ballot they are obviously not paying attention.

Posted by Pete Miller on Thursday, 06/26/2014 @ 09:04am

Should he be? Strict to the museum's name, no.

Will he be? Probably. MJ and Madonna are there, so is Public Enemy, hip hop artists will start enter the hall and he is one of the most popular among them.

Posted by Romo on Friday, 07/4/2014 @ 19:43pm

For those of you saying "What did he bring to rock n roll?"That's not relevant at all,yeah the name is the Rock n' Roll hall of fame,but BILL MONROE THE FATHER OF BLUGRASS MUSIC IS IN THIS HALL OF FAME,and to this age old question,Bill Monroe had nothing to do with Rock n Roll,so EM will be in.

i swear some people are absolutely ridiculous. Eminem is one of the most talented musicians of this time. Sure, he may not be rock at first look, but he does include many, many, MANY rock elements into his music. He is a lyrical genius, and should definitely be inducted into the hall. All of you people don't understand that in order to really appreciate music, u need to give it all a chance, and see the good in it, and not strike it down the first chance you get. I was at one point in that phase where 'rock is king', and that no other music takes any talent or has any purpose on this earth. But now, things are different, and i really enjoy music alot more. Sure, i may not particularly enjoy certain kinds of music, but that doesnt stop me from commemorating them for their talent, and giving them the credit they deserve for their effort. (which is not the case with eminem. I DEFINITELY enjoy his music) But, my point is, just take a second, stop being so ignorant, and atleast try being open minded. Seriously, im only 14 and i may have posted the most educated comment on this page.

Posted by Joe Gonzalez on Monday, 10/20/2014 @ 23:46pm

The Rock and Roll Hall of Fame is not just for rock artists. It's for any musician who can prove himself; Eminem has certainly done that. He's in, no question.

Posted by fudgeyouhonki on Wednesday, 03/25/2015 @ 16:04pm

I hate to smash the hate bubble, but hip-hop is a form of rock & roll. Not "rock", but "rock" is not synonymous with "Rock & Roll". Eminem is popular enough and influential enough to be considered when his time comes.

Posted by dmg on Monday, 04/27/2015 @ 12:32pm

Eminem should be in the rock hall! For god sakes if RUN DMC is in there and if ARETHA FRANKLIN is in there then Eminem sure as hell should be!

Posted by Matt on Sunday, 07/12/2015 @ 22:39pm

Eminem will be a first-ballot Hall of Famer when eligble in the next couple of years. Love him or hate him, he is arguably the most acclaimed and popular rapper of the 21st century. Anyway who doubts his work, listen to "Stan," a disturbing masterpiece. He is a master on the mic and one of rap's most intriguing if not complicated artists.

By the time Eminem gets it, there will probably be more hip hop artists in the Hall by then; the likes of 2Pac, Jay-Z, N.W.A. and LL Cool J will probably already be in the Hall by then. I'm still hoping for Eric B. & Rakim and De La Soul too.

Actually he is already eligible. His first song was Pooh Butt Day in 1988. and that was 27 years ago so he's actually been eligible for 2 years... Granted his early tapes aside from Infinite weren't all that great but it still qualifies.

I still do not understand how Americans do not know what rock and roll is and it is their invention supposedly, now what this refers to is the R & B music that emerged as a consequence of several black influences in the 40's, now the media of communication when they saw that the white musicians played r & b called it rock and roll to have a music together between whites and blacks, it is simply that, then it evolved in different ways in diversity of genres between the black and white musicians, in the sixties the beatles and the rolling stones their music music was r & b then evolved to other styles because rock and roll always had different changes from the beginning, so rock, r & b, hip hop, pop, etc. in general make up the rock and roll era , like whoever likes it, everything was born from the old R & B. and it is the dominant popular music in the world more than 60 years ago.

Anyone who says Eminem sucks or doesn't belong in the RRHF is blinded by hate. This man changed music and is one of the best lyricist MCs to ever live. You don't have to like his music but if you don't respect what he does, you know nothing about music. You are just a metal head that does not know music and have no right to even comment. GTFO with that garbage until you understand music and the difficulty of what he does. Listen to RRHF members talk about what he does. They know music, you know your favorite bands.

You all realize that there are already two dozens rappers in this Hall, right? It hadn't been strictly Rock for my entire life...which frankly is the strength of the genre and the reach of this hallowed place. And there are numerous Eminem songs that are very rockish, but that's beside the point.

The Rock and Roll Hall of Fame has been inducting Hip Hop Artists since 2007

Merriam-Webster defines "rock and roll" as "popular music usually played on electronically amplified instruments and characterized by a persistent heavily accented beat, repetition of simple phrases, and often country, folk, and blues elements."

The origins of rock and roll date back to the late 1940s. The genre grew out of various other genres such as gospel, jazz, blues, boogie-woogie, rhythm and blues and country music.

From its inception, rock and roll was an expansive genre that pushed boundaries, defied classification and influenced various aspects of popular culture, from fashion to politics to language. This calls to mind the definition Ice Cube gave for rock and roll when his rap group N.W.A. was inducted in 2016:

"The question is are we rock 'n' roll?" Ice Cube said. "Rock 'n' roll is not an instrument. Rock 'n' roll is not even a style of music. Rock 'n' roll is a spirit...Rock 'n' roll is not conforming. Rock 'n' roll is outside the box, and rock 'n' roll is N.W.A."

Ice Cube was defining rock and roll as a vibe, a feeling that can't necessarily be quantified. But there are technical aspects of the music that back up his argument.

The rock and roll pioneers of the 1950s took elements of other genres, especially blues, to create something refreshing and edgier, but still a lot of fun. The earliest image one might have of rock and roll is that of Chuck Berry and his guitar. With the release of songs like "Maybellene" and "Johnny B. Goode," the instrument became synonymous with this new genre.

However, the chords on "Johnny B. Goode" and other early rock and roll songs were based around jump blues, which was played on a piano. The guitar is an awesome instrument. But rock and roll was never beholden to one device. Fats Domino, Pete Johnson, Little Richard, Jerry Lee Lewis and other artists had just as much to say about the genre's formation as Berry.

Berry's status as the man who invented rock and roll also shows that the genre and hip hop have a key thing in common: Neither would exist without the blues. In fact, you could argue hip hop's connection to the blues runs even deeper from a cultural and thematic standpoint. If you can't draw line from blues – an art form whose origins date back to the 16th-century slave trade – to the music of Tupac Shakur, Jay-Z and Kendrick Lamar, you're not looking hard enough.

When you connect the dots between all of these genres, you're left with something similar to a family tree. And this is the construct the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame works with. If rock and roll is the trunk of the tree and genres like blues, jazz, gospel and country the roots, hip hop rightfully takes its place in the branches alongside genres like heavy metal, punk, new wave, alternative and progressive.

If Jay-Z isn't rock and roll, is Nine Inch Nails? If LL Cool J doesn't belong in the Rock Hall, does Depeche Mode?

In my experience, most of the people who have a problem with hip hop being in the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame stopped listening to new music after the classic-rock era that ran from the mid-1960s to the 1980s.

It was during that time that "rock" replaced rock and roll. Never mind that, structurally, they're different. Rock as it was called was all about hard sounds and the upbeat. Rock and roll was built around the downbeat as something you could dance to.

Rock and roll became that teen fad that consumed the 1950s. "Rock" was more sophisticated and cool. "Rock" was Led Zeppelin. "Rock" was The Rolling Stones. And, unfortunately, "rock" was confined to the image of a white guy with a guitar.

For all the criticism it gets, the beauty of the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame is that it's remained true to the origins of rock and roll even if some of the fans got lost along the way. Rock and roll was created as something meant to evolve and become wide-ranging with a boundless worldview. The Rock & Roll Hall of Fame should be praised for keeping it that way.

Posted by Carrie on Friday, 02/18/2022 @ 10:03am

Eminem has been one of the most impactful musicians for the past two decades; being artist of the decade and winning a litany of awards. Eminem's music speaks to many generations and has continued to influence people on a personal, cultural and a professional level. Furthermore, Eminem's music is much more than singing about cliché rap things such as weed, pimps and guns (obviously that's there too), his music is personal, painful, joyful, yet tragic.

Eminem isn't my favourite musician, nor is rap my favourite genre but I cannot think of a musician whom has changed the landscape of music to such a level since his own career came to be. I honestly believe the man is a literal genius and I hope he makes it into the Hall of Fame as it is surely deserved.

Eminem's induction into the Rock And Roll Hall Of Fame will lead to "Weird Al" Yankovic finally being inducted.

A lot of people are saying "rappers don't belong in the rock and roll hall of fame" forgetting that many rappers music uses rock elements or is entirely rock instrument based. Eminem is no exception, in nearly half of his songs, rock and roll influences are obvious. Rap is a special genre that can have elements of any other genre because it's really the vocals that define it, the instrumentation can be anything. Eminem's best rock beat is his 2002 song "Lose Yourself".

i think the majority of the commenters need a long hard read about rock and roll and what it defines and where the terminology came from
