Ozzy Osbourne, Foreigner, and Jane’s Addiction are among the nominees for the 2024 induction into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame. Other nominees include Oasis, Peter Frampton, and Lenny Kravitz, alongside Mariah Carey, Sinead O’Connor, Cher, and more. To qualify, each nominee’s debut release must have been before 1999. Ten nominees, including Ozzy Osbourne, are first-time ballot entries. The top vote-getters will be revealed in late April, with the induction ceremony set for the fall in Cleveland. The inductees will be chosen by a panel of artists, historians, industry professionals, and fan votes on the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame website. The ceremony will stream on Disney+, Hulu, and ABC.
Ozzy expressed:
“I’m deeply honored to receive this news from the Rock And Roll Hall Of Fame. To be one of the few musicians who’s being considered for a second entry, now as a solo artist, is something I could never have imagined. After 44 years as a solo artist the fact that I can continue to record music and receive this recognition is something I am incredibly proud of.”
Foreigner guitarist Mick Jones issued the following statement:
“I deeply appreciate the recognition from the Rock And Roll Hall Of Fame committee. It is wonderful that Foreigner has maintained its presence all these years and brought the music to our fans. Getting this news today is an incredible endorsement of what we have achieved over time. I know I speak for my fellow Foreigner nominees, Lou, Rick, Al, Dennis, and the families of Ed Gagliardi and Ian McDonald.”
