Me thinks, Kiss will get in no matter what. So will the Chilli Peppers and LL Cool J. Genesis will definitely get in.
I don’t know about Laura Nyro though, I don’t even know who that is.
If Genesis finally does get inducted, I wonder if Peter Gabriel will be part of that induction since he was the first frontman of that band before Phil Collins? I’m sure they’ll let Peter be part of this. I don’t see why not?
So you ask, LL Cool J is not rock, he is strictly rap and hip hop, how does he get nominated? I’m willing to bet the song “Mama Said Knock You Out”, is what got him the nomination, that tune is kind of like a rock song.

I 100% agree with your final 5.
I hope the people at the RnRHoF dont honor those 2 fake KISS guys who are in the band now.
Peter Criss and Ace Frehley rule and those two Israelis used them the whole time and barely paid them nothing.
This is where the term “Robbing Peter To Pay Paul” originally came from.
ROCK THE COLD GIN, CHICKIEBABIES!
