The inductees of the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame 2025 are quite talented and quirky in their genre of music.

There are six musicians and bands in the performance category of the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame 2025. 

Bad Company 

Bad Company shortly disbanded after the release of Rough Diamonds in 1982, despite their disbandment, they continued to reunite on several special occasions, seeming like nothing had changed. They are the masters of 1970s rock and roll. “The Voice” was highly acclaimed as the best rock and roll song, taking the spot of 55th, in the 100 Greatest Singers of All Time. 

The inductees are Boz Burrell, Simon Kirke, Mick Ralphs, and Paul Rodgers, who were the original members of the hard rock band  Bad Company. 

Chubby Checker

Chubby Checker is an American singer and dancer who was extremely popular during the 1960s. He was responsible for causing a wave of dance revolution in America with "The Twist" in 1960. Chubby Checker was a heartthrob of his generation. 

He changed the way people viewed the equation between music and dance by the fusion together. This led to a craze of dance-focused hit music.

Joe Cocker

Joe Cocker was known for his soulful covers of melodious songs. His iconic rendition of "With a Little Help from My Friends" at Woodstock showcased his ability to transform familiar songs into powerful, deeply felt performances.

Cyndi Lauper 

Cyndi Lauper is famous for her four-octave voice. She was appreciated for her contribution to the music community with the Billboard Icon Award in 2018. 

Cyndi Lauper burst into the pop scene like electricity and fireworks in the 1980s with her eccentric style and rebellious spirit. Her hit songs titled "Girls Just Want to Have Fun" and "Time After Time," turned her into a symbol of individuality, female empowerment, and intense self-expression.

Outkast

Outkast reshaped hip-hop by blending funk, rap, soul, and experimentation. André 3000 and Big Boi created groundbreaking albums like Aquemini and Speakerboxxx/The Love Below, making them one of the most creative forces in modern music.

Soundgarden 

Soundgarden emerged from the Seattle grunge movement with a heavier, more metal-influenced sound. Fronted by Chris Cornell, the band combined dark, introspective lyrics with explosive instrumentation, leaving a lasting mark on 1990s rock.

The White Stripes 

The White Stripes revitalized garage rock in the early 2000s with their minimalist style. Jack and Meg White used simple guitar-and-drum setups to create raw, blues-infused rock anthems like "Seven Nation Army," influencing a new generation of rock bands.

Salt-N-Pepa and Warren Zevon are in the category of Musical Influence Award, Thom Bell and Nicky Hopkins, Carol Kaye are in the category of Musical Excellence Award, whereas Lenny Waronker is in the Ahmet Ertegun Award category.
