A certifiable hit maker since his teens, Usher has been cranking multiple top tens in both the Pop and R&B charts and in terms of name recognition, Usher should be near the top of any list of Rock and Roll Hall of Fame eligible artists.

However, it has been shown that a multitude of hits does not a Rock and Roll Hall of Fame career make and despite his success, it can be argued that Usher is not the most influential artist, though it cannot be disputed he sold a lot of albums. If his reputation as an influencer grows (and it could), we are looking at a fringe candidate here.
