How come ludacris gets inducted and not outkast, that's really ludacris. Outkast is legendary and they're still making music, I've got "Aquemini" in my cd player right now. the two other rock groups I haven't even heard of (maybe because rock is'nt my thing but still), when I think of georgia music I think outkast, and maybe ray charles. not to take away from ludacris, I mean congradulations but no Outkast, that's just crazy !!!
