lol.

You gotta give me some leverage here

If you’re gonna include yes and Genesis (are they in) and rush and not Tupac you’re pretty much saying rock’n’roll is white not black

Then black dudes can say hey we invented it

Makes it a little harder to justify not letting them in the country club
Nah I'm not saying rock music is just for white people, it's certainly not. Lenny Kravits, Living Colour and Jimi Hendrix are all rock artists that would make sense if they were inducted into the Rock Hall of Fame. I just don't think they should mix the musical genres up and put rap artists and pop artists in with rock artists, it just doesn't make sense.It's supposed to be a rock music hall of fame.
