The Rock & Roll Hall of Fame has announced its 2024 nominees for induction and here they are:
- Mary J. Blige
- Mariah Carey
- Cher
- Dave Matthews Band
- Eric B. & Rakim
- Foreigner
- Peter Frampton
- Jane’s Addiction
- Kool & the Gang
- Lenny Kravitz
- Oasis
- Sinéad O’Connor
- Ozzy Osbourne
- Sade
- A Tribe Called Quest
The Rock Hall notes: “To be eligible for nomination, an individual artist or band must have released its first commercial recording at least 25 years prior to the year of nomination.” Out of this list, five to seven will actually be inducted and those will be announced in April, followed by the induction ceremony this fall in Cleveland.
Ten out of 15 of the Nominees are on the ballot for the first time, including Mariah Carey, Cher, Foreigner, Peter Frampton, Kool & the Gang, Lenny Kravitz, Oasis, Sinéad O’Connor, Ozzy Osbourne and Sade. The rest have been nominated before: A Tribe Called Quest (2022, 2023), Mary J. Blige (2021), Dave Matthews Band (2020), Jane’s Addiction (2017), and Eric B. & Rakim (2012).
Ozzy is already in the Hall of Fame as part of Black Sabbath, but this nomination is for his solo work.
Suddenly, an Oasis reunion feels a little more likely.
