Quite possibly the worst mega-selling musical artist ever. A disgrace to all that is good to holy.

They only had one good song "N 2 Gether Now" and that was due to the DJ Premier supplied beat, and an appearance from Method Man... No... Just no

It’s a no for me. I love the first three LB albums, but their horrible take of “Behind Blue Eyes” marked the band’s decline.

Limp Bizkit’s Significant Other will turn twenty in June.

They wrote Stairway to Heaven. That alone means they're going in first ballot.

Please no.

LMAO. Limp Bizkit in the rock n roll hall of fame?! BWAHAHAHA. I'm rollin' rollin' rollin' on the floor laughing

Their first record was released in 1997, which makes them eligible in 2022.

Posted by Anonymous on Friday, 01/17/2020 @ 00:14am


Their first demo was 1995.

Worst "band" ever!

Posted by Chris on Tuesday, 08/4/2020 @ 18:18pm


If nu metal were in the Hall of Fame, I sure as hell wouldn't want these clowns anywhere near the ballot.

Maybe Korn (who created the genre) or Linkin Park, but definitely not Limp Bizkit.

Posted by fifi on Thursday, 11/5/2020 @ 17:56pm


they will get in - period!

Posted by John on Sunday, 05/16/2021 @ 18:19pm


Like Motley Crue, they are 'banned for life' from the Hall. Motley Crue may get in once all their members have died, these guys will never get in.

Posted by Paul in KY on Monday, 05/17/2021 @ 14:42pm


Source? Nikki Sixx said that Motley Crue are banned, but who says these bozos are?

Posted by Follower on Monday, 05/17/2021 @ 16:08pm


Follower, if Motley Crue are...then these lameos must be! Ipso facto!

They are probably technically not banned, but might as well be, IMO.

Posted by Paul in KY on Tuesday, 05/18/2021 @ 06:23am


Not gonna happen.

Posted by Henry on Tuesday, 07/6/2021 @ 00:20am


If Limp Bizkit gets in I will laugh my ass off

Posted by Joey on Monday, 07/12/2021 @ 00:30am


Limp bizkit is one of the best bands of the 90s and 2000s. People can hate them but they defined nu metal. Anyone who thinks limp shouldn't get in the hall is a dumbass. Each member was so talented and they put on amazing shows back in the day. If Motley crew and poison could still be popular and selling out big venues i think limp should be as well.

Posted by Trent on Saturday, 07/24/2021 @ 17:40pm


What the HELL are you all talking about? Limp Bizkit was my introduction to rock! Without them...I would just be listening to the Backstreet Boys and Britney Spears! Limp Bizkit was the introduction to rock for so many and it will be a huge insult to music if they aren't inducted!

Posted by Marcella on Monday, 08/2/2021 @ 20:10pm


Yes, yes, yes, YES! Limp Bizkit is the BEST BAND EVER!
The other bands like Papa Roach and Linkin Park would not have gotten popular had Limp Bizkit not been there first! Fred Durst is one of the greatest frontmen of all time, John Otto is an amazing drummer, Sam Rivers creates really great, funky basslinesand Wes Borland has some of the best riffs I've ever heard!
Go LIMP BIZKIT! Put them in the Rock and Roll Hall Of Fame!

Posted by Natalie on Monday, 08/2/2021 @ 20:14pm


Limp Bizkit was the intro to rock for millions! So many teenagers wanted to be Fred Durst, and many guitar players wanted to copy Wes Borland! Limp Bizkit made rap-rock cool, when you think of rap-rock you think of these guys! Their percentage should be much higher, it should be 90% instead of 4%. You're delusional if you think LB doesn't deserve the Hall!

Posted by Mark on Monday, 08/2/2021 @ 20:16pm


Yes! No band puts on a show like they do! They have given the world some of the most iconic rock songs ever. Rollin, My Generation, My Way, Break Stuff, and of course NOOKIE! Each and every member is insanely talented! Their music has stood the test of time. Induct LIMP BIZKIT into the hall in 2023!

Posted by Laura on Monday, 08/2/2021 @ 20:19pm


hell yeah!
they deserve the hall
they are rock and roll!
limp bizkit forever

Posted by sam on Monday, 08/2/2021 @ 20:27pm


they deserve the hall. they are the best band ever! limp bizkit rocks

Posted by chris on Monday, 08/2/2021 @ 20:28pm


i think people say limp bizkit sucks because its trendy to hate them. everyone always says that they suck. if people actually listened to their music they would understand their message. fred durst grew up poor and isolated from the world, and he was able to put together the best band ever, as an outlet for his anger and frustration. they should be in the hall for their impact on the music industry!

Posted by Jason on Monday, 08/2/2021 @ 20:31pm


If they don't get into the hall this would be rigged! Critics never liked them but who cares? Limp Bizkit is a band for the PEOPLE, not the critics! The numbers speak for themselves!
Fred, Lethal, Wes, Sam, and John-keep rockin!
Go LIMP BIZKIT!
btw Fred- call me!

Posted by Sara- Ms. Durst on Monday, 08/2/2021 @ 20:34pm


we should make a petetion to get them in the hall! WHOS WITH ME

Posted by Ashley on Monday, 08/2/2021 @ 20:36pm


They definetly deserve it

Posted by Jared on Monday, 08/2/2021 @ 20:42pm


Limp bizkit is one of the fathers of nu metal along with slipknot and korn so they should be in.

Posted by Jason on Monday, 08/2/2021 @ 20:44pm


Limp Bizkit is badass! They are rock legends! If they don't get in the Hall then the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame has no meaning! They are ROCK ICONS

Posted by Lindsay on Monday, 08/2/2021 @ 20:47pm


They are the the fathers of nu metal and rap rock!

Y-E-S

Posted by Hilary on Monday, 08/2/2021 @ 21:06pm


Limp Bizkit are the fathers of nu metal! Theys should get in! They did influence the whole genre of music(nu metal) including Linkin Park ...Go FRED! KEEP ON ROLLIN' BABY!!!

Posted by #1 FRED DURST fan on Monday, 08/2/2021 @ 21:08pm


YES! Limp Bizkit and Fred Durst got me into rock and metal. Limp Bizkit has to get in the Hall! These haters need to take a look around and realize how relevant Limp Bizkit are! Get them in the hall!
ps. Fred, you are still fine as hell!

Posted by Madison on Monday, 08/2/2021 @ 21:11pm


Where the hell did all these Limp Bizkit fans come from? Limp Bizkit in the Hall just ain't happening, sorry. Korn, yes. Linkin Park, yes. Limp Bizkit? Not gonna happen

Posted by Lucas on Monday, 08/2/2021 @ 21:18pm


LMAO some troll must have been creating fake accounts. Limp Bizkit is never getting in the hall.

Posted by Henry on Monday, 08/2/2021 @ 21:24pm


Who are these people saying yes? Limp Bizkit is the Quiet Riot of the 90s. They will never be in the hall. I think Fred Durst must have created a bunch of burner accounts.

Posted by Aaron on Monday, 08/2/2021 @ 21:43pm


LMAO EVEN INSANE CLOWN POSSE HAVE A BETTER CHANCE AT GETTING IN THAN LIMP BIZKIT.

Posted by Joe on Monday, 08/2/2021 @ 22:45pm


^they have sold out arenas before and they have more monthly listeners and views on their videos than motley crew and dave matthews band. so what does that tell you

Posted by Justin on Tuesday, 08/3/2021 @ 11:18am


Fred, I'm glad you are realistic about your chances. Looks like you were having some fun at Lolla. I don't know if that was a wig or not, but you looked like one of the Beasty Boys.

Posted by Paul in KY on Tuesday, 08/3/2021 @ 12:35pm


im only 12 and i love limp bizkit! they are legends i love them so much!

limp bizkit should be in the rock hall!

Posted by britney on Tuesday, 08/10/2021 @ 11:46am


HELL NO!!!!!

THEY SUCK

Posted by James on Wednesday, 08/11/2021 @ 22:36pm


The day these bozos get in the hall would be the day I burn down the rock and roll hall of fame... "Keep Rollin'" is the worst song ever written. What self respecting adult listens to this trash?

Posted by James on Wednesday, 08/11/2021 @ 22:47pm


HELL YEAH! Long live the BIZKIT

Posted by Kevin on Wednesday, 08/25/2021 @ 13:49pm


Is Poison in the rock and roll hall of fame?
No. Limp Bizkit is the 2000's equivalent of them.

Posted by Henry on Wednesday, 10/6/2021 @ 10:30am


So often I hear the LB/Poison comparison, but I do not buy it. There are certainly similarities, but Limp Bizkit is far more diverse and creative. Beyond that, their staying power annihilates Poison's sustainability. When considering the unique sound, the record sales, the talents of the musicians in the group, and the titanic, wavering live show it becomes hard to ignore them. Their resurgence this year may prove the start of a critical turn around to go with their commercial success. Perhaps the most mainstream metal band this side of Metallica; you cannot tell the story of music without Limp Bizkit.

Posted by Cody on Monday, 11/8/2021 @ 08:44am


Cody, you can.

Posted by Paul in KY on Monday, 11/8/2021 @ 09:13am


^^Nah, Limp Bizkit and Poison are pretty much the same thing, different generations. Limp Bizkit's new album isn't doing so hot, they're a nostalgia act now.

Posted by Todd on Monday, 11/8/2021 @ 19:46pm


No doubt with album sales and popularity in correlation with their contribution in innovation to the rap rock world, I see them making it in the HOF. The reason why they arent there quite yet is you have to have 25 years after your debut album to qualify, they just became eligible this year.

Posted by Henry Winkler on Monday, 08/8/2022 @ 08:18am


This band shaped a generation of not giving a f*ck and coming out and shouting my way or the Highway.The legit talent this band has can easily destroy the Beatles success. With that being said, if they don't get inducted, they don't. What exactly is there to prove in it? Ain't nobody in the house without my boy, Fred. He has a chainsaw, a Nookie, and Dad vibes!!!

Why the hell not?? They have sold over 50 million albums! They are touring again selling out arenas. Makes zero sense. Many others, Many others who are in are less deserving. It's not about whether you like them or not but the amount of records sold and impact on the music industry.
