Whitney Houston and The Notorious BIG will posthumously be inducted into the Rock & Roll Hall Of Fame after being announced among the artists to make the cut this year.
Also making the class of 2020 are Depeche Mode, The Doobie Brothers, Nine Inch Nails and T-Rex.
Between five and seven acts are usually inducted into the Hall Of Fame each year following a vote by more than 1,000 performers, music historians and industry experts.
Artists are eligible 25 years after the release of their first album or single.
Both Houston and BIG were first-time nominees, but broke through ahead of artists on the long-list who have not made it through in the past, including Motorhead, Kraftwerk, MC5 and Rufus featuring Chaka Khan.
The 35th annual Rock and Roll Hall of Fame Induction Ceremony will take place on 2 May 2020 in Cleveland Ohio.
