Red Hot Chili Peppers drummer Chad Smith says some rappers absolutely warrant induction into the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame … even if not everyone — or every rock star — agrees.
We got Chad at LAX and our photog asked him if rap music belongs in the HOF … and Chad wasted no time giving his answer.

Gene Simmons feels otherwise … the KISS rocker slammed the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame on a recent episode of the “LegendsNLeaders“ podcast, saying … “Hip-hop does not belong in the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame, nor does opera, symphony orchestras … it’s called the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame.”
Gene also said in the same interview, “It’s not my music. I don’t come from the ghetto. It doesn’t speak my language.”

We asked Chad point blank about Gene’s comments … and he kinda threw some shade Gene’s way. Ouch.
Bottom line for Chad … the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame isn’t just reserved for rockers.
