Candlebox

Although they flew the Grunge flag and came from Seattle, Candlebox was not a critical darling, nor were they really respected among hardcore flannel and goatee wearers. Regardless, Candlebox found solid radio airplay with their debut album, and looking back their effort may have been more rooted in traditional Rock and Roll than their Washington State brethren. 

107. Bone Thugs-N-Harmony

If you excuse the pun, Bone Thugs-N-Harmony was easily the most melodic of the big name rap stars of the Mid-90s, which allowed the Gangsta Rap influenced group to combine that with pop sensibilities.  The result was number one albums and a rewriting of what deep Hip Hop could sound like.  This allowed this group to be a unique combination of kicking ass while thoughtfully taking names.  Their induction to the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame depends on how their always changing legacy is seen.

Belly

With a run that made you wonder if they were trying to be sweet and cute, (or only appear that way), Tanya Donelly’s project, Belly was both loved and hated by critics, and it became rare to find two music critics in a row who would give the same opinion about the band. Donnelly was a talent, but it is going to be hard to see if she gets into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame regardless of the capacity.  

Tim McGraw

A major star on the Country music scene, Tim McGraw will be another who will ask the question of the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame to look at the exceptionally popular genre to potentially open their doors. As we have mentioned on the site before, with Willie Nelson out of the Hall, the New Country stars don’t stand a chance, regardless of how well they kick butt in front of a crowd.
