100. Mariah Carey

Her huge success is unquestionable. Mariah Carey is not only one of the most successful artists all time in the United States but in the world.

Her vocal skills are undeniable, and when people discuss who is the greatest singer ever, her name belongs in the discussion.

220. Kid Rock

It took a long time for Kid Rock’s Beastie Boy inspired Rap Metal to make him a star but when he did he never looked back.  Future efforts from the Michigan based white trash superstar showcased a lot more range than would have been originally suspected.  Kid Rock would show that he could use Country and Classic Rock influences and still have the same swagger that made him a star. 

526. Ice Cube

The first to achieve success upon leaving N.W.A., the first few solo albums of Ice Cube featured the same level of controversy he was accustomed to with his former group.  As much as he was criticized for apparent racist and misogynistic rhymes, he was equally applauded for his social awareness.  For Cube’s solo career to get into the Hall it would have to be on the strength of his early work as his later work was weaker and largely diluted by his diversion to a successful acting career.

444. Hole

One of the more abrasive “in your face” bands of the 90’s, Hole delivered some of the better Alternative based sounds of their day.  It wasn’t without controversy as they were fronted by the polarizing Courtney Love, who had as many admirers as detractors.  Despite some of the solid material that they produced it is well within the realm of possibility that the Hall would keep them out to keep Courtney out.  Regardless of the Courtney Love factor they could easily be behind some of the 90’s Alt powerhouses, which would be totally understandable.
