7 Defining Albums from Rock Hall’s Class of 2025
The Rock & Roll Hall of Fame isn’t just about music — it’s about the artists who changed everything. In this special episode, I’m honoring the 2025 inductees who reshaped genres, broke boundaries, and defined entire eras — from Soundgarden and Cyndi Lauper to Outkast, The White Stripes, and more. These icons didn’t just top charts. They redefined what it means to be an artist — bold, fearless, original — and their influence still echoes through everything we hear today. 🎧 Subscribe for more deep dives into the artists who shaped us. 🛒 Use code THEGROOVE at Vinyl.com for 10% off your favorite albums. 👇 Who’s your favorite 2025 Rock Hall inductee? ❤️ FOLLOW ALLISON ON SOCIALS ✅ YouTube: https://youtube.com/AllisonHagendorf ✅ Official Website: https://allisonhagendorf.com ✅ Instagram: https://instagram.com/allisonhagendorf ✅ TikTok: https://TikTok.com/@allisonhagendorf ✅ X: https://x.com/allihagendorf #RockHall2025 #Soundgarden #CyndiLauper #Outkast #WhiteStripes #JoeCocker #AllisonHagendorf #VinylCommunity #MusicThatMovedMe #ClassicArtists #HallOfFame #Grunge #HipHopLegends #PopIcons #RockHistory #MusicCulture
