Donna Summer isn't in there. I say, if the people that TLC samples from aren't in, neither are they. Pop female artists (R&B as well, I'm sure) don't get that much respect (nor do women in music period) so I would be surprised if it happened. Now if Madonna didn't get in, it be hell, but she'll be the exceptation.

TLC has no shot at the R&R Hall of Fame - nor should they.

Oh HELLLLL NO! You gotta have at least a little bit of talent to get in there.

OK, that's really wack if R&B artists aren't shown love in the R&R hall of fame since Rock 'n' roll is a derivative of Rhythm & Blues.

ummm...no.

simce when has tlc been 25 years in the game i got fan mail 4m my homegirl and the album is hot but when did they start getting social security checks?

Donna Summer isn't in it? That is so wrong, they better induct her

Um... No. Not a chance. No way. I can't believe it's all butter. Sorry.

P wrote "Waterfalls" for TLC, right? Any1 with any more juicy bits on him penning that 4 them? I love that.

And, NO, they should not be in the hall of fame.

Thank you! I totally agree!

No. He performed it at a few shows in the mid-nineties, sparking this rumour, but P did NOT write that tune.

I agree that TLC should not be in the RRHOF. I really like a lot of their music, but they just didn't have that great of an impact.

Besides Destiny's Child, I can't think of a stronger, more talented or creative "girl group" in recent years that achieved so much success and had such a strong impact with young women of color. So much impact, I might add, a number of adults were a little concerned by their condom fashion accessories.

TLC had great production, TONS of personality, scandal, and a knack for locking on to solid vehicles that promoted them well (anyone else remember those MTV spots -- not to mention their soundtrack contributions). By the time CSC came out, they were huge. For good reason.

I hope they're inducted, when they become eligible. They were rock 'n roll.

I don't know if it's just R&B artist but it certaintly is eaiser for rockers to get in than R&B artists. Women have the toughest time, probably, so that is their real strike.

I don't wanna jump on the bandwagon.....but no..they don't belong. I like some of their stuff though.
