    About the 2026 Nominees, richie wrote:
    I would be happy with 16 of the 17 nominees getting in this year and they are:

    The Black Crowes
    Mariah Carey
    Phil Collins
    Melissa Etheridge
    Lauryn Hill
    Billy Idol
    INXS
    Iron Maiden
    Joy Division/New Order
    New Edition
    Oasis
    Pink
    Sade
    Shakira
    Luther Vandross
    Wu-Tang Clan

    The only nominee this year that I wouldn't be happy with getting in this year is Jeff Buckley, because I think that there are other acts that are far more deserving of induction than Jeff, besides I think that he is the least likely act to get in this year IMO.
