NEW YORK (AP) — The Rock & Roll Hall of Fame this year will induct Eminem, Dolly Parton, Lionel Richie, Carly Simon and two guys in sunglasses who have scored more No. 1s on the Billboard Hot 100 than all of those others combined. Jimmy Jam and Terry Lewis are the rare songwriting and producing team to get into the prestigious hall and they hope it will lead to more artists like them being inducted. The duo’s chart-topping pop hits include Janet and Michael Jackson’s “Scream” and Mary J. Blige’s “No More Drama.” Jam and Lewis have five Grammys. The Rock & Roll Hall of Fame induction will be held Saturday at the Microsoft Theater in Los Angeles.
