Phil Collins and yet again Oasis are headlining the nominations for the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame!
17 artists can be admitted, which also includes Jeff Buckley, Lauryn Hill, Mariah Carey, Pink, Shakira and Wu-Tang Clan. Artists become eligible 25 years after releasing their first commercial recording, so Oasis and Carey have been nominated twice before, as Pink is now eligible, and The Wu-Tang Clan are the only hip-hop act to be nominated.
First-time nominees: Jeff Buckley, Phil Collins, Melissa Etheridge, Lauryn Hill, INXS, New Edition, Pink, Shakira, Luther Vandross, Wu-Tang Clan
Returning nominees: The Black Crowes, Mariah Carey, Billy Idol, Iron Maiden, Joy Division/New Order, Oasis, Sade.
A panel of voters choose between six and eight performers to be inducted, as the selected acts will be revealed in April.
