From the 2024 shortlist, those who didn’t make it were Eric B. and Rakim, Jane’s Addiction, Lenny Kravitz, Mariah Carey, Oasis, Sade, and Sinead O’Connor.
Sinead was expected to get through following her passing in 2023. Jimmy Buffet, who will be honored in the Music Excellence category, wasn’t even nominated but was given the token tribute following his death recently.
Oasis not making it wasn’t a surprise. When they were announced in the shortlist, Liam Gallagher posted on his socials, “Fuck the Rock n Roll hall of fame its full of BUMBACLARTS LG x.”
Cher, who did make it through after qualifying sine 1991 had also bagged the award on the Kelly Clarkson Show last December saying “You know what, I wouldn’t be in it now if they gave me a million dollars. I’m not kidding youI was about to say shitting you! I’m never going to change my mind. They can just go you-know-what themselves.”
