Move over, rockers--rappers make Hall of Fame: SouthFlorida.com

Graffiti Board: How do you feel about hip hop? Some hip hop insiders, such as Russell Simmons, say they love the way the music is headed.

[Trick Daddy]

imma be in de wok-n-roll hall of shame

[Ratinum]

Let the Crying Begin. More success for Hip Hop.

[Eddie]

I'm happy to see that rapper's from back in the day are finally being recognized.

[Proud to be 32]

I am glad that music that has a true message can be acknowledged as such. 25 years ago, hip-hop muscic had something to say and there are a few out there that still do. Remember, Rock and Roll is American and believe or not, hip-hop and rap music are as American as apple pie and McDonald's french fries!

[WOW]

Lets see...We have Grandmaster Flash recognized, BUT..no Moody Blues, Jethro Tull, Three Dog Night, Chicago,Peter Frampton, Neil Diamond (songwriting),Kiss...etc, etc, BUT we do have THE FURIOUS FIVE!!! Makes me Furious!

[Pedro]

Hope they build the place with bulletproof glass.

[Liberace]

Does this mean I can get into the Rap/Hip hop hall of Fame?

[Neil Diamond]

If you want to be first in line, cupcake, going to have to beat me by wining a good, old fashioned slap fight !

There’s a great video with KRS-One on SF Iam. One of the pioneer in rap, and hip-hop, back in the day with it was called “the jam.” KRS-One tells it like it is to a group of students at the Academy of Art in San Francisco.

KRS has got a great philosophy on school and life. You can check out the vid here:
