    Rock Hall 2021 Class: Tina Turner, Go-Go’s, Kraftwerk and More!

    We are absolutely THRILLED to share the 2021 class of inductees to the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame. Voting was wild this time around, to be sure. As always, the list of nominees was long, varied, and deserving. But, we’re pretty pleased with the results.

    The 2021 class will include Tina Turner, The Go-Go’s, Carole King, Kraftwerk, the Foo Fighters, Jay-Z, and Todd Rundgren. Both Turner and Foo’s Dave Grohl will become double inductees, a small but distinct class of honorees.

    Maybe you’re scratching your head, because the final fan tally looked something like this.

    And yes, we know the actual ‘fan vote’ portion seems like it didn’t matter this time around. But, as with every year, the fan vote only counts for a small portion of the consideration. Personally, we would’ve exchanged Foo Fighters for Iron Maiden, only because one came before the other and paved the way for metal acts to be more than just “loud.”

    Kraftwerk is receiving the Early Influence Award, along with Charley Patton and Gil Scott-Heron. LL Cool J, Billy Preston, and Randy Rhoads are being honored with a Musical Excellence Award. “The Black Godfather” Clarence Avant will receive the Ahmet Ertegun Award, which traditionally goes to those of high influence but not performance (executives and the like).

    The 36th Annual Rock Hall Induction Ceremony will take place on October 30th at Cleveland’s Rocket Mortgage Fieldhouse.

    Mary Anne Butler (Mab) has been part of the fast-paced world of journalism since she was 15, getting her start in album reviews and live concert coverage for a nationally published (print) music magazine. She eventually transitioned to online media, writing for such sites as UGO/IGN, ComicsOnline, Geek Magazine, Ace of Geeks, Aggressive Comix (where she is still Editor-in-Chief), Bleeding Cool (where she was News Editor), and now Nerdbot as Editor-In-Chief. Over the past 10 years, she’s built a reputation at conventions across the globe as a cosplayer (occasionally), photographer (constantly), panelist and moderator (mostly), and reporter (always). Interviews, reviews, observations, breaking news, and objective reporting are the name of the game for the founder of Harkonnen Knife Fight, a Dune-themed band with an international presence. Though she be but little, she is fierce.
