My picks for the 2008 class of the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame

You know it's a travesty that some well known artists are getting left out the hall. But if I was on the committee, I will definitely make sure these 6 artists would be part of the 2008 class. They are:
1. Kiss
2. The Dramatics
3. Genesis
4. Janet Jackson
5. Run-DMC
6. Kool & The Gang
My honorable mentions would be: Herbie Hancock and Rick James
Who would you pick to go in if you were on the committee and who should go?
Peace and be wild!

U picked Run DMC and Genesis over Herbie hancock? Interesting. Especially since Herbie is one of the most influential artist in r&b and hip-hop, but never gets any credit for anything but "Rock It".

Who's all eligible.


- I read somewhere the O'Jays would be the last black vocal R&B to make it, so the Dramatics are out.
- The Jackson 5 didn't make it their first try so I dobt Janet will.
- Kool & the Gang will have to wait a awhile. Look how long it took funkers like P-Funk and EWF get in and the Ohio Players still ain't in yet.

These are all good picks, but I think Kool and the Gang should be higher, since they recently performed.

Rick James should've been in the Hall of Fame already.

The only way she'll be inducted is if Janet gets in too. That committee at the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame are kind of shady.

If you want my opinion, they'll probably induct these artists next year:
Run-DMC
Chic
The Stooges
Duran-Duran
The Shangri-Las (?)

Shoot, they should've inducted Mary Wells and the Marvelettes inducted before the Ronettes...

The Meters.
It is not known why FuNkeNsteiN capitalizes his name as he does, though some speculate sunlight deficiency caused by the most pimpified white guy afro in Nordic history.
