To be eligible for nomination, artists must have made their first commercial release at least 25 years before the year of induction and have demonstrated “musical excellence, impact, and influence.”

Oasis has been nominated for the third consecutive year, as have Joy Division and New Order, who are named together as one candidate. Mariah Carey, Billy Idol, Sade, Iron Maiden, and The Black Crowes have also previously been nominated but didn’t make the cut. 

This year's first-time nominees are Lauryn Hill, Wu-Tang Clan, Jeff Buckley, P!nk, Luther Vandross, Shakira, INXS, Phil Collins, and Melissa Etheridge.

Last year’s inductees included The White Stripes, Outkast, Cyndi Lauper, Soundgarden, Bad Company, and, receiving the Musical Influence Award, Salt-N-Pepa.
