Tina Turner nomination is at least 20 years late =


Not a bad slate but I think King, LL, Fela and of course Tina should be in the class. It's a crime it's taken this long for her, she's arguably first ballot.

Pat Benatar was the queen of 80s female rock.She shouldn’t have to wait years and years before she is finally inducted.

Well..no. She wasn't. Joan Jett says hello and already got in years ago.

Mickey reminded us that she already got in with Ike, but IIRC if Stevie Nicks got in as a solo artist Tina deserves it too!

Stop it smile I remember Pat Benatar being a big deal in the 80s.She had big hit singles and she was all over MTV.And unlike some of the female artists who have already been inducted,she is undisputably rock and roll.

Joan Jett is great too.She deserves to be in,but let’s not underestimate Pat Benatars’ success,impact and influence.

When I think of female Rock singers Pat is always the first person who comes to my mind. Along.with Debbie Harry. Has Blondie been inducted?

Yes,Pat Benatar is the main female 80s rock singer that comes to mind when I discuss rock n roll.I can’t believe that she still hasn’t been inducted.

Yes,Blondie got inducted awhile back.

Because NWA and Public Enemy's attitudes and behavior are infinitely more 'Rock 'n Roll' than of most bands who got in.

Rap isn't rock and roll. Never has been period. What a comment 🤦‍♂️

Rock and Roll is more than just a music form. It comes with a whole attitiude.
Rap and Rock and Roll are both rebellious in nature.
By your logic most of the bands nominated or in the Hall aren't even Rock and Roll then.
