A lot of those early old school rap guys (Run DMC, Public Enemy, etc)

rocked their acts. Their collaboration with acts like Aerosmith and Anthrax lead me to not question their induction. Grandmaster Flash used to love sampling rock n roll riffs and N.W.A.'s and Public Enemy's embrace of the rebellious attitude of rock n roll make them a natural fit as well. Many of the 90s hip hop groups and more recent acts, I agree, probably don't belong in the Hall, but I could see guys like Eminem eventually getting a spot.
