I forgot there was a fan ballot on this, but I’m not surprised by the votes going to the most “pop” acts.

I’d put Rage Against the Machine in the “should be inducted” group, but I’ve been wondering if Rage Against the Machine’s politics might keep them out. They’ve been nominated all but one year since they became eligible (2018), so they must get in eventually.

I’d also like to see Kate Bush get in (eligible since 2004).

Didn’t Dolly remove herself from consideration?

Dionne Warwick missing doesn’t sit right with me. In many ways, she’s the archetype for the crossover Black Female Artist. Her hits are timeless and that voice is undeniable. A shame.

I’m actually shocked at the Lionel Richie induction. I figured he would be too “MOR” for their taste.

This years inductees are Pat Benatar, Duran Duran, Eminem, Eurythmics, Dolly Parton, Lionel Richie, and Carly Simon. Though not recognized in the performers category, Judas Priest will be inducted in the Musical Excellence category.

Lionel Richie is a no brainer. Pat Benatar, Duran Duran and Carly Simon is as rock as it can get. Dolly Parton is too important of a figure.

Safe choices, no Rage Against the Machine (nominated 4 times) or Kate Bush (nominated 3 times). Not too surprising. Perhaps I was right earlier about Rage Against the Machine’s left wing politics being a problem.
