Yesterday, Eminem was nominated for entry into music’s most elite club: Rock And Roll Hall Of Fame.
Slim Shady is the only one of the 17 contenders to receive a nomination in his first year of eligibility, which is 25 years after a recording’s debut. His first ever solo studio album “Infinite” album debuted in 1996.
Fan voting has also started. As the official website says the top five artists, as selected by the public, will comprise a “fans’ ballot” that will be tallied along with the other ballots to choose the 2022 inductees.
Royce 5’9″ showed support to Eminem by sharing the screenshot of his votes with the caption: “Guess who’s voting this year?”
Skylar Grey also pinned a story to her Instagram, saying: “Cast your vote daily for Eminem to be inducted into the Rock & Roll Hall Of Fame”
Nasaan also humorously asked his fans to help Eminem get the most prestigious award in music: “Hey guys! my uncle raps or whatever, goes by the name “Eminem” he’s pretty good too. He’s been nominated for this thingy thing award. If you could be so kind to cast him a vote it’d be awesome, we’d really appreciate it.”
