473. Sean Paul

A major star from the Jamaican Dancehalls, Sean Paul became an International superstar with fun and accessible music. With a series of top ten hits in the 00’s, Paul definitely made a mark on the musical map, but as much as we love the music of Jamaica, the Dancehall style is not likely to gather an inductee to the Hall.

178. Ryan Adams

Calling Ryan Adams just a Singer/Songwriter is such a misnomer. He has the look and attitude of a Rock Star yet is a major force in Alternative Country. Regardless of what style you want to place Ryan Adams, he is a musical genius regardless. Of course, there are many talented acts who have yet to get into the Hall, but Adams has an intangible that can’t be ignored.

Relient K

Not exactly beloved by the critics (though what Christian Rock band is?), Relient K was able to secure a large fan base in the Christian demographic. What does this mean for a Hall of Fame birth? Our guess is virtually nothing, as there is no evidence that this is the type of band that can get enshrined, and if it is to be proven wrong, this is not likely the group to do it.

Rascal Flatts

Rascal Flatts is another act that should be well on the way to the Country Music Hall of Fame, but will struggle completely to even sniff a shred of support for the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame. Even if a pure Country act gets in from the last twenty years, Rascal Flatts likely won’t be it as they aren’t the deepest of the New Country genre.
