The Recording Academy held its third-ever Grammy Hall of Fame Gala at the Beverly Hilton Friday night, honoring iconic albums including Funkadelic’s Maggot Brain, Heart’s Dreamboat Annie, Radiohead’s OK Computer and 2Pac’s All Eyez on Me among others, while George Clinton, Heart and Norah Jones were all among the evening’s performers.

Teddy Swims and Josh Groban performed in honor of Warner Records, which was selected as this year’s record label honoree for the event.

Jackson, inducted by Rhythm Nation 1814 producer Jimmy Jam, took to the podium Friday night for the honor, calling her landmark album “a movement of people of all ages and backgrounds seeking to give and receive love free of judgment.”

“It’s beautiful to relive the memories attached to this project that’s so precious to me tonight,” Jackson said. “I don’t see Rhythm Nation as a phenomenon that lives in the past; I believe it’s alive and well in 2026. Rhythm Nation still resonates on a deep and profound level. It’s an ongoing force that fights bigotry and promotes understanding. It cannot be stopped, it’s simply too strong and too positive.”

Elsewhere Friday night, Erykah Badu took the stage alongside Clinton to perform the Maggot Brain classic “Can You Get to That,” with Badu subsequently telling Clinton that he created “something that never existed before” with his seminal funk rock, a message that seemed to get a co-sign from Flavor Flav, who let out one of his iconic “yeah boyeee” shouts from the audience as the crowd burst out into laughter and cheers.

Overall, 14 records were officially inducted into the Grammy Hall of Fame last night: 2Pac’s All Eyez on Me, Selena’s Amor Prohibido, Lucinda Williams‘ Car Wheels on a Gravel Road, Heart’s Dreamboat Annie The Soul Stirrers’ Jesus Gave Me Water,” Alice Coltrane’s Journey in Satchidananda, Funkadelic’s Maggot Brain, Radiohead’s OK Computer, The Rouse Brothers’ “Orange Blossom Special”; Eric B. & Rakim’s Paid in Full, Nick Drake’s Pink Moon, Jackson’s Rhythm Nation 1814, Bertha Chippie” Hill’s “Trouble In Mind” and Ella Jenkins’ You’ll Sing a Song and I’ll Sing a Song.

On Wednesday (March 20), the organization announced that The Miseducation of Lauryn Hill (1998) and 3 Feet High and Rising (1989) will be inducted into the Grammy Hall Of Fame in 2024 alongside classics by Donna Summer, Wanda Jackson and more.

The ceremony is scheduled to take place at the Novo Theater in Los Angeles, CA on May 21.

“We’re proud to unveil the diverse mix of recordings entering the Grammy Hall Of Fame in its 50th year,” Recording Academy CEO Harvey Mason Jr. shared.

“The music showcased here has played a pivotal role in shaping our cultural landscape, and it’s a true honor to recognize these albums and recordings, along with the profound influence each has had on music and beyond.”

The Miseducation of Lauryn Hill debuted at No. 1 on the Billboard 200 tally upon its release and went on to win five Grammy Awards: Best New Artist, Best R&B Song, Best Female R&B Vocal Performance, and Best R&B Album.

3 Feet High and Rising, on the other hand, didn’t receive the same amount of commercial shine when it first dropped but has since been credited for giving art rap and progressive Hip Hop a boost like no other body of work before it. In 2010, the Library of Congress added the LP to the National Recording Registry on the basis of it being “culturally, historically, or aesthetically significant.”

In related news, A Tribe Called Quest, Mary J. Blige, Mariah Carey and Eric B & Rakim are among this year’s Rock and Roll Hall of Fame nominees.

The full list of artists nominated this year, which totals 15, was announced last month on the organization’s website and across its social channels. Blige, A Tribe Called Quest and Eric B & Rakim having all been nominated previously and returning to ballot once again.

On Wednesday (Feb. 1), the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame revealed their list of nominees for the coveted honor. Hip-hop is represented, with Missy Elliott and Tribe being in a group that includes Kate Bush, Sheryl Crow, Iron Maiden, Joy Division/New Order, Cyndi Lauper, George Michael, Willie Nelson, Rage Against The Machine, Soundgarden, The Spinners, The White Stripes and Warren Zevon.

This is Missy’s first time on the ballot and her first year of eligibility. This is A Tribe Called Quest’s second time making the ballot after first making the list in 2022 but failing to get voted in.

“This remarkable list of nominees reflects the diverse artists and music that the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame honors and celebrates,” said John Sykes, Chairman of the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame Foundation. “These artists have created their own sounds that have impacted generations and influenced countless others that have followed in their footsteps.”

Missy, a four-time Grammy-award winner, has enjoyed an illustrious career that has seen her break the mold for female rappers while excelling in rapping, songwriting, producing and singing. A Tribe Called Quest are cited at one of the best hip-hop groups of all time, with multiple critically acclaimed albums and undeniable influence. Fans can cast their vote at vote.rockhall.com.

Missy and ATCQ’s induction would mark the 11th and 12th rap acts to be allowed entry into the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame including Jay-Z, 2Pac, LL Cool, The Notorious B.I.G. and others. Eminem made the final cut last year, becoming the most recent rapper to be recognized. 2023 inductees will be announced in May, with the ceremony taking place this fall.

Missy Elliott has been getting her flowers a lot recently. In 2019, she was inducted into the Songwriter’s Hall of Fame, joining Jay-Z, Jermaine Dupri and The Neptunes as the only hip-hop artists to receive the honor. In 2021, she was honored with a star on The Hollywood Walk of Fame.
