The Rock and Roll Hall of Fame Foundation announced its 2022 inductees which include major artists such as Eminem, Duran Duran, Judas Priest and many more.
This year’s Induction Ceremony includes 14 artists and major music influencers who have altered rock and roll in a major way. The list includes first time nominees Eminem, Duran Duran, Dolly Parton, Lionel Richie and Carly Simon. This is the first year in history in which six female acts will be inducted in one class.
John Sykes, Chairman of the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame, acknowledged this year’s inductees as a “diverse group” who have impacted and changed rock and roll. The foundation announced inductees for four different categories: Performer Category, Musical Excellence Award, Early Influence Award, and Ahmet Ertegun Award.
Honorees of the Performers Category are considered artists who have influenced the course of rock and roll through their creative music and originality. This year, the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame has included seven artists within this category: Pat Benatar and Neil Giraldo, Duran Duran, Eminem, Eurythmics, Dolly Parton, Lionel Richie, and Carly Simon.
The Musical Excellence Award includes Judas Priest and Jimmy Jam and Terry Lewis. The Early Influence Award Inductees includes Harry Belafonte and Elizabeth Cotten.

All artists are required to have released their first record 25 years prior to Induction to be eligible for the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame. This year became Eminem’s first year of eligibility. Nevertheless, all artists will be honored for their significant impact and influence to music.
