When asked what the Hall’s hopes were for the next five years, Sykes replied: “To be relevant. Follow the sounds, and follow the sounds of the artists we induct.”

President and CEO of the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame and Museum Greg Harris reiterated the Hall’s recently revised mission statement: “Born from the collision of rhythm & blues, country and gospel, rock ‘n’ roll is a spirit that is inclusive and ever-changing. The Rock and Roll Hall of Fame celebrates the sound of youth culture and honors the artists whose music connects us all.”
