Rock n Roll Hall of What?

The Rock 'n' Roll Hall of Fame has announced it's inductees for this year. Among the inductees is Run DMC. Correct me if I'm wrong, but last time I checked, they were one of the most influential hip hop groups of all time.

Checking wikipedia:

an influential hip hop group from Hollis, in the Queens borough of New York City.

Nope. Not wrong.

Run DMC is not in the same genre as rock n roll. So who's next? Toby Keith? Laurence Welk, Tiny Tim? Liza Minelli?

We're just going to let Run DMC in, when I believe Iggy Pop and the Stooges probably should be ahead.

Since the RnR Hall of Fame has decided to do this, I want the Hip Hop Hall of Fame to do an equal trade off. I want them to do an induction like,"Yo, I'm proud to present the next inductee into the Hip Hop Hall of Fame. They coming from the real ol' skool. They are the OGs of flowing, and they were down with pirates before Johnny Depp. Its my honor to present to you... Gilbert and Sullivan for their work with Pirates of Penzance! Honorable Mentions to Tom Lehrer."

Then I'd like to see 50 cent and Jay Z doing a "Modern Major General cover.


In short, in matters rock, rap and musical,
I'm the very model of a today's young and cynical.
