14 comments so far (post your own)Cameo is one of the greatest funk, rock, jazz bands ever. The HOF desire to limit Black acts is a slap in the face to the history and culture of the music itself. The white washing continues. Posted by Eric Johnson on Sunday, 08/16/2020 @ 10:10am |
Couldn't agree with you more! Posted by Keith Mitchell on Saturday, 10/2/2021 @ 10:30am |
Yes I have been a cameo fan since I was 12 years old through my college years they are truly one of the greatest funk RB bands of all time they should be in the rock and room hall of fame Posted by Johnny hayes on Monday, 04/4/2022 @ 16:45pm |
It's an abomination that Cameo is not in the Hall of Fame. Ignorance of diversity among Hall of Fame committee. Posted by Marvin Johnson on Wednesday, 05/4/2022 @ 22:16pm |
How in the hell is Cameo NOT in the RRHOF??! Funk, Rock, Soul, Ballads, great videos amazing live shows and multiple decades putting it down!!! The Hall should apologize and put them in today! Posted by John on Monday, 06/27/2022 @ 16:27pm |
They aren't in because they are one hit wonders. Posted by |
Anyone saying CAMEO is a one hit wonder knows nothing of the Band or music in general. Posted by Facts on Thursday, 11/10/2022 @ 13:50pm |
Cameo belongs in the Hallof Fame. If LL Cool J is in . Why isn't Cameo, there's more hits,more music. Originality. And at the minimum, 10 gold.or platinum albums. If they're not in the Hallof Fame is the Hall of SHAME. War is not even in there should say alot. Posted by David on Tuesday, 10/8/2024 @ 13:54pm |
WOOOW I saw Cameo at 12yrs old and a true fan of them for always and forever oon of the originators of funk and roll just like Parliament and they are not in unbelievable Posted by Eric R Alexander on Monday, 01/6/2025 @ 13:51pm |
The only reason I want Cameo in the HOF is so every member who was pictured on any of the covers of all those albums (except for Wayne Cooper, RIP) can show up for their Posted by S. Daniel Means on Sunday, 04/20/2025 @ 03:20am |
Such a pivotal group of musical artists during arguably the greatest era of music in history and they have not been at the very least nominated. We need to get that changed immediately. Posted by Vince Davis on Wednesday, 04/23/2025 @ 14:22pm |
I'm not a fan of Cameo. I just found out that they've had that many gold albums. And I think one went platinum. Man, Was I surprised. As I've stated. I'm not a fan of there music. But, I do feel they should be in the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame. Because of all those gold albums. That's a big statement in itself. Some groups that HASN'T had as much success as Cameo are already in. I'm stating this not as a fan. But as someone who knows the rules & regulations of the Rock & Roll Hall of fame. Also, some of there music has been Re-recorded by other people.
