    One might argue what huge influence and impact did TR have in the grand scheme of things? Giving the world/and spawning bands like Stabbing Westward and Marilyn Manson and Filter???

    And killing it at Woodstock 94 in front of a bunch of drunk jocks and frat boys doesnt make you the biggest band in the world in 1994. They didnt even headline that night....

    I didnt realize NWA was a rock band? Ice Cube should be nominated on his own, rather than all of NWA....He was NWA....when he split, he became huge and the rest of the band died. Eazy E sold 10 records on his own and did nothing except be jerry hellers puppet, he didnt even write his own raps, they had to write them for him, DJ Yella is flipping burgers, Rens career died after Cube split as well and Dre rapped on maybe 1 song on their first record and.....but if they do get in, I would love to see Ice Cube in the same room with jerry heller

    They're not (nor is NIN), but it's the rock'n'roll hall of fame, and Hip Hop is a direct descendent of rock'n'roll, as is metal and many modern genres.

    Dre alone deserves to be in for his influence beyond the sphere of simply rapping, and Ice Cube of course, and the actual albums are so timeless that it makes sense to induct the lot.

    Doesn't matter if they headlined, they ended up having the biggest crowd that entire weekend of the year's seminal rock event. [I keep insulting people]. There's plenty of bands from the past two decades that could easily vouch for NIN being heavy influences.
