Tupac Shakur and Pearl Jam have been nominated for induction into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame.
The list, which was released today with 19 nominees, will see the late rapper who was killed in Las Vegas, Nevada in September 1996, battle out Janet Jackson, Pearl Jam, Joan Baez, Depeche Mode, Chaka Khan, Electric Light Orchestra, Jane’s Addiction, J. Geils Band, Journey, The Cars, Yes, The Zombies, The Bad Brains, Steppenwolf,MC5, Kraftwerk, Joe Tex and Chic for the Induction.
According to Rolling Stone, Hall of Fame bosses have also announced which members from each band will be inducted if they make the cut.
For example, Pearl Jam has had a number of drummers but only current drummer Matt Cameron and founding member Dave Krusen will be inducted.
Many bands, such as KISS, have squabbled over which line-up should receive the honour in the past.
