In response to "Inspired by B2: Here's the 2024 Rock and Roll Hall of Fame Nominees. Voters can choose up to 7. Who are you picking?" by MDH

I'll work backwards through my list. -- (edited)

In order to get to an answer.

Artists whose music I don't know so I can't really vote for them though they very well may deserve it
- A Tribe Called Quest
- Eric B. & Rakim
- Peter Frampton

Automatic NO:
Dave Matthews Band

Almost automatic NO:
Foreigner

I just don't really like them / never understood the the hype so NO:
Jane's Addiction
Oasis

Nah:
Lenny Kravitz

I don't know any of his solo music other than Crazy Train and Mama I'm Coming Home:
Ozzy Osbourne

That leaves me with six. So I'll add Eric B and Rakim as seventh because I trust Krusty.
Mary J. Blige
Mariah Carey
Cher
Kool & the Gang
Sinéad O'Connor
Sade

My votes for Mariah, Mary J, and Cher are emphatic. The rest was process of elimination.
