Public Enemy Chuck D Says LL Cool J Should Get Into The Rock & Roll Hall Of Fame Before Tupac

[LUClEN]

I really tried to refute this because my personal bias thinks Tupac has better music and embodies "rock n roll" better than LL. But from a perspective of merit as measured by sales, longevity, success, influence, and seniority, LL does deserve it more.

ll was around since kurtis blow ...in crush groove

who still around like that other than the legend dougie fresh who was in beat street

Cosign Chuck D

I can agree. A lot of rappers want to be like Pac, but a lot of rappers from Pac's day wanted to be LL Cool J

 

[The Prodigalson]

I'm a Pac fan as well but def think LL should've went before PAC.

 

[The Prodigalson]

I still bump some of that old school LL to this day. Just was listening to I'm Bad.

 

[CeLLaR-DooR]

Went through L's discography not too long ago. The Drake comparisons are disrespectful AF

This musta been mad when it came out.

I imagine L bein' that young, arrogant, audacious kid comin' for the crown back in the 80s

"LL Cool J say what,i'll rock your mother fucking bells"- 2 pac - lil homies

Pac all day fuck that nigga LL he didn't do shit for the culture.....................................................

Naw im joking LL should be getting inducted into the Rock & Roll Hall Of Fame,he's done so much for hiphop and even tho he did a lot of chics songs when it was time for him to get busy on the mic,or go at another MC neck he wasn't scared,the man had bars.I guess LL have to die before he can get honored?

I wish we(Blacks) can have our own HipHop Hall Of Fame run by US,so a lot of these artist over the years can get their just do,also a rock and roll as well,they stole that shit from us.

 

[genocidecutter]

He's right

 

[Breezy_Kilroy]

He'll get in off of Accidental Racist if Gene Simmons and co had a say.

But LL does get extreme disrespect. That nigga was SPITTIN on Rock the Bells.

Easily one of my favorite rap songs ever.

Only people that say that are the ones that only heard ll commerical songs not his actual albums. Their albums couldn't be any more different

Drake is 2 Effeminate to be compared to Mr. Smith...

 

[ineedpussy]

[CapitalB]

WESTSIDE TIL I DIE!!

Besides @_Goldie_ , I may be the biggest Pac supporter in the IC.

With that said, it is criminal the way LL Cool J has been erased from the archives as one of the GOATs. His pen game, catalog, and longevity should have him (arguably) in everybody's top 10 or possibly top 5. The guy was a beast with it and should have already gone into the HOF alongside Run DMC.

 

[RickyRich]

No doubt ll should b in there. But i swear anytime pac gets propw niggas come outta everywhere.to talk down on him .

 

[miami cane]

I disagree. Tupac has influenced his generation, my generation, and my kids generation. LL is an all time great, but Pac is Pac and he was only 25.
