R&B Artists In The Rock Hall (Updated 2014)

 I first published this list back in March 2010, and since then only Donna Summer has been inducted.

The fate of the artists below remains a big question.  Hopefully, new NomCom members will get some of these nominated.  But I remain skeptical about that.

Below is an updated list for 2014. Of these, Chuck Willis, Chantels, Mary Wells, Chic, Chaka Khan, War, "5" Royales, Meters, Joe Tex, Marvelettes, Spinners and Billy Ward & the Dominoes have been nominated.
