This year's class of Rock and Roll Hall of Fame inductees features some unexpected classic rock picks more in line with the Hall of old.
Peter Frampton attends the 38th Annual Rock & Roll Hall of Fame Induction Ceremony at Barclays Center on Nov. 3, 2023 in New York City.has officially let through its doors this decade, it’s probably been the institution drifting away from the classic rock artists that defined its ranks for decades, and towards a broader genre view rewarding artists of wide cultural iconicity.
And so of course, the 2024 inductees for the Rock Hall include Peter Frampton, Foreigner and the Dave Matthews Band.Now, that snarky comment isn’t totally fair to either the Rock Hall voters or the artists inducted. For one, there are still two artists from this year’s recently announced class that absolutely fit the newer brand of Rock Hall inductees in Cher and Mary J.
In an older Rock Hall class, you might not have looked askance at the three of them getting in. Even now, you might not think it that strange for any of the three of them to get in on their own. But for all three of them to get in the same year is fairly surprising, especially considering some of the names shut out.
If there is more of a unifying theory to the new inductees to the Rock Hall this year, though, it might have to do with the breakdown of longstanding critical preconceptions in evaluating said artists. Of the eight artists granted entry this year, only A Tribe Called Quest could really be considered in any way to be critics’ darlings.
