NPR reports the inductees for the Rock N Roll Hall of Fame class of 2019.
The Cure
Def Leppard
Janet Jackson
Stevie Nicks
Radiohead
Roxy Music
The Zombies
The nominees were originally 15, however, only 7 made the cut. Its interesting to see these iconic names who many may have already thought they were in the Hall of Fame already. Especially Janet Jackson.
As Questlove writes on his Instagram claiming that the fact Janet Jackson has yet to be inducted is “criminal”
The process of being inductees the members judge certain criteria as explained by npr.org
“....members weigh factors ‘such as an artist's musical influence on other artists, length and depth of career and the body of work, innovation and superiority in style and technique are taken into consideration’…”
