Rock Hall of Fame 2022 nominees announced

 

Another year, another Rock Hall of Fame ballot with a bunch of totally unworthy of consideration nominees. Considering the number of deserving rock bands and artists it has ignored, it's mind boggling that the Hall continues to undermine its credibility with nominees that have little to nothing to do with rock. 2022's list is close to evenly split between legit and ludicrous candidates. Worthy nominees include Pat Benatar, Judas Priest, MC5, New York Dolls and Rage Against the Machine. Passably plausible are Devo, Duran Duran, Erythmics and Carly Simon. This year's crop of preposterous nominees features Dolly Parton, Lionel Richie, Dionne Warwick, Eminem, A Tribe Called Quest and Fela Kuti.
