Russell Simmons Sounds Off About LL Cool J Continuously Being Overlooked By The Rock n Roll Hall Of Fame

Hip-Hop pioneer and mogul had a lot to say about The Rock n Roll Hall Of Fame overlooking LL Cool J for yet another year.

Simmons sited the lack of inductees of color this year and the lack of diversity overall. 

Russell Simmons takes to Instagram to write “How many times is the Rock and Roll hall of game gonna look over or snub LL cool j ? This year 7 inductees one of color Bet we know who the first honoree /inductee in hip hop Musuem will be ? Music industry leadership and decision makers are still segregated But People if u want your stars in this Museum and i do …you gotta join the board and vote ? The good news is no one can escape the music …..LL you are the GOAT KEEP INSPIRING WE LOVE YOU ❤️ @llcoolj I noticed John Bon Jovi waited They trying to make ll cool j pop The truth is he turned pop to hip hop Not hip hop to pop ….That’s his honest hip hop expression that bridged it all together They penalizing him for selling too many records But he will always be instilled in the history books with or without their endorsement.”
