Ozzy Osbourne, Foreigner and Jane's Addiction lead the latest class of Rock and Roll Hall of Fame nominees, revealed recently on their official website. To be eligible for nomination, an individual artist or band must have released its first commercial recording at least 25 years prior to the year of nomination. None of the acts nominated for a potential 2024 induction have been added to the ballot in their first year of eligibility.
Ozzy issued the following statement regarding his inclusion on the ballot: "I’m deeply honored to receive this news from the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame. To be one of the few musicians who’s being considered for a second entry, now as a solo artist, is something I could never have imagined. After 44 years as a solo artist the fact that I can continue to record music and receive this recognition is something I am incredibly proud of."
In 2006, Ozzy was inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame as the singer of Black Sabbath.
