In April of 2017, Tupac will be the first solo rapper to EVER be inducted into the Hall of Fame, not to mention the first to receive the honour.

 

In the past, the only Hip-Hop acts that have been inducted were all groups including Grandmaster Flash and the Furious Five, Beastie Boys, Run-D.M.C., N.W.A. and Public Enemy.

There will be a ceremony held on April 7, 2017 at Brooklyn’s Barclays Centre.
