    About the 2026 Inductees, Casper wrote:
    As evidenced in the numbers I just gave, being inducted at RHR/RHP was an indicator for ten more inductions in the last ten years than being on the Spotify Top 3000 among those who failed to meet both standards. When comparing these inductees that had met just one criteria, it's 13-3 in favor of RHR/RHP inductees over those who just had the great Spotify numbers. That's a margin greater than 4-to-1.

    In other words, if the acts don't meet both criteria, bet on The Replacements over Britney Spears. Sonic Youth over P!nk, etc.

    De La Soul benefited greatly from their collaboration with Gorillaz when it comes to streaming data.

    None of their songs as the main artist has surpassed 100 million streams on Spotify. If we only consider their main-artist catalog, their streaming numbers are not much different from EBAR. Their popularity as a main act is probably a bit lower than groups like A Tribe Called Quest.

    I also don't think many voters would factor in their collaborative work when deciding whether to vote for them. So I'm still not sure whether De La Soul would have a strong chance of getting in on the first ballot.

    About the 2026 Inductees, Casper wrote:
    Erykah Badu/D'Angelo are the Beatles and Stones of the Neo-Soul movement. Question is whether the Hall pivots in that direction or not soon. Regardless, it's reminded me to put Erykah Badu on my list of most likely inductees as I already had D'Angelo on it.

    And the Luther Vandross induction is hardly at odds with our own project. He was a big contender in Rock Hall Projected last year and will likely just be inducted over there this year.
