* EnsembleDarkhorse: While they aren't near-universally respected like, say Iron Maiden or Slayer, they are quite a bit more popular among metalheads than one might expect. It's to the point that many have criticized the highly elitist website Metal Archives for not adding them to their database solely because their frontman is a rapper, as despite featuring rapping on some songs (mostly in later albums), their music itself has no hip-hop influences whatsoever.

* AwardSnub: Body Count was nominated for a Grammy for "Best Metal Performance" in 2018 for the song "Black Hoodie". Like with many past awards, name recognition would usually play a huge part as many metalheads predicted that Body Count would earn the Grammy solely because Ice-T is the band's frontman. Unfortunately, that was not the case as Music/{{Mastodon}} won the award instead.
