The Rock and Roll Hall of Fame released its list of inductees for the Class of 2025 in April, which includes another round of groundbreaking rappers. Atlanta duo OutKast was one of the seven performers voted in this year, while Salt-N-Pepa was named one of the year’s musical influence award recepients.
This will now make them the 14th and 15th rap entries to be brought into the Hall, which started back when Grandmaster Flash and the Furious Five paved the way in 2007. Since ’07, some of the world’s biggest rappers have gotten into the prestigious Hall of Fame, including LL Cool J, Run DMC, Eminem and Missy Elliott.
Hip-hop’s journey from block parties in the Bronx to the global stage has been nothing short of revolutionary, and the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame has finally started to reflect that impact. While legends like Elvis Presley, The Beatles, Bob Dylan, The Rolling Stones and more have all been accepted over the years, there are equally as impactful rap artists that have long deserved the honor too. In recent years, it seems the Rock & Roll Hall has finally started to see that there are many rappers who have also changed the face of popular music.
As a result, the rappers honored by the Hall represent more than just chart-topping success; they embody innovation, lyrical genius and boundary-breaking artistry. As the world gets ready to see another pair of rappers get inducted, here’s a gallery of every rapper that’s been given the honor so far. Whether you’re a longtime fan or just diving in, these rappers deserve recognition not just in hip-hop history, but music history too.
