White Stripes, Oasis, Mariah Carey Nominated for Rock and Roll Hall of Fame 2025

The announcement of the 2025 Rock and Roll Hall of Fame nominees has set off another round of speculation and excitement. Among the 14 nominated acts are Bad Company, the Black Crowes, Mariah Carey, Chubby Checker, Joe Cocker, Billy Idol, Joy Division/New Order, Cyndi Lauper, Maná, Oasis, Outkast, Phish, Soundgarden, and the White Stripes.

Interestingly, six of the nominees have been up for induction before, with Mariah Carey notably expressing disappointment at not being inducted last year. Could we see a repeat of Cher’s situation where she was initially overlooked? Liam Gallagher of Oasis also seems indifferent to the honor, calling the Hall of Fame “full of BUMBACLARTS” in reaction to Oasis’s unsuccessful bid last year.

Typically, around half of the nominated artists are chosen for induction each year. The voting process involves a panel of music industry professionals as well as a fan-voted component. The names of this year’s inductees will be revealed in April, with a ceremony celebrating them set to take place in the fall.

The Rock and Roll Hall of Fame always generates a lot of buzz and debate with its nominations. This year’s selection presents a diverse mix of acts, spanning various musical genres and eras. It will be intriguing to see who ultimately makes the cut and joins the prestigious list of Hall of Fame inductees.

As music fans eagerly await the announcement of the 2025 inductees, speculation and discussions are sure to heat up. The induction ceremony itself is always a highly anticipated event that pays tribute to the influential artists who have left a lasting impact on the world of music. Stay tuned for more updates on this year’s Rock and Roll Hall of Fame induction process.
