I love Temptations and would certainly vote for them but I don't know enough of his solo material to commit here, sorry

Same as Crazy mate! I might vote for the Temptations but not Eddie!

Guys, if you're gonna have a music hall of fame then you should know something about the artist nominated.

We cant all know everything about every artist in the history of music
and it wouldn't be right to read a Wiki page on the artist to gauge if its warranted
IMO voting for Kendrick would be like voting for Ringo Starr as a solo artist

The MD Hall of Fame is very particular as to who gets inducted! We don't want to mirror the Rock n Roll Hall of Fame in Cleveland! It appears to me that anyone who ever released a song is inducted! Of course the heavyweights are in automatically! But after that is becomes somewhat farcical as to who gets inducted.

most people would be unable to name a song from Mr. Kendricks solo career other than Keep On Truckin
not worthy of the highly honored status of MDHOF
