Rock and Roll Hall of Fame Inducts Cher, Ozzy Osbourne, Mary J. Blige, Foreigner, and A Tribe Called Quest: A Diverse Group of Music Legends

In October 2024, the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame will welcome a diverse group of inductees who have each made significant contributions to music history. Among them are pop icon Cher, heavy metal legend Ozzy Osbourne, R&B superstar Mary J. Blige, and the legendary bands Foreigner and A Tribe Called Quest.

Cher's induction comes after she publicly expressed her disappointment at not being nominated in previous years. With a career spanning over seven decades and numerous chart-topping hits, Cher's inclusion is well-deserved.
