Emo music is having a moment at the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame
NPREmo music is having a moment at the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame Emo music has largely flown under the radar, but with a new exhibit at the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame focusing on one of its founding labels, it's time for another look. And what - how does that feel to know that something that you started with a book and a thousand-dollar loan is now a piece that's commemorated in the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame? SUMMERS: Back at the Rock Hall, Posen told me that he feels like part of Hopeless' role is to let artists like Youssef and Sweet Pill express themselves and authentically connect with their fans. SUMMERS: And now Hopeless and that indie-emo community have a home at the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame, which made me wonder, with the Hall of Fame inductions right around the corner, will artists like these ever receive that ultimate honor?
