OutKast’s Hall of Fame Honor Cements Atlanta’s Music Legacy

On November 8, the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame inducted Cyndi Lauper, OutKast, Soundgarden, The White Stripes, Bad Company, Chubby Checker, Joe Cocker, and special honorees at the Peacock Theater, Los Angeles.
Chairman John Sykes, Rock & Roll Hall of Fame chairman, said the nominating committee often unravels into heated debates as it broadens what counts as rock and celebrated returning the ceremony to Southern California.
Andre 3000 choked up recalling starting in `little rooms`, while Big Boi led a guest-filled OutKast set with Doja Cat, Tyler, the Creator, JID and Killer Mike.
The ceremony ran just under four and a half hours and is streaming in full on Disney+, with a condensed ABC broadcast planned for New Year's Day.
This year's class highlighted a drop in female representation with only Cyndi Lauper and Meg White as performers, while Salt-N-Pepa spotlighted their streaming removals and lawsuit against Universal Music.
