Band

To determine the most popular rock 'n' roll legends, entertainment data site PrettyFamous ranked each musician and band based on their Musician or Band Score, respectively. This is a weighted average of a musician or band's Wikipedia page views over the last 30 days, the 30-day Wikipedia page views of the bands they were/are in (in the case of a singular musician), the Wikipedia page views of their releases and the number of followers they have on Spotify. In the case of a tie, the musician or band with the later year of induction was favored.

This is Steppenwolf's first nomination.

This is the third nomination for Yes. The band became eligible for induction in 1994.

Journey is another first-time nominee. The band first became eligible for induction in 2000.

Kraftwerk became eligible for induction in 1995. This is the band's fourth nomination.

The influential disco-era band Chic, who have become the hard-luck losers of the rock hall induction process, are on the ballot for the 11th time.

This is the fourth nomination for the J. Geils Band.

This is the first nomination for Lollapalooza instigators Jane's Addiction.
