Sade will not be attending their Rock & Roll Hall of Fame induction, according to a new statement released to the Academy.
In the message, the group expressed regret over their absence while underscoring the significance of the honor. “Sorry we can't be there in person to celebrate with the other artists. Please know how much this recognition means to us,” the statement read. It continued: “Being Inducted into the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame is both a gift and a timely reminder to give thanks, not only to those who voted for us but also every single person who lets our music into their lives.”
The announcement confirms that Sade will miss the in-person ceremony despite receiving one of music’s highest recognitions.
Millennials really made burned CDs for people as an act of love. Handwritten track list, sharpie decorations, songs illegally downloaded from somewhere questionable. That was INTIMACY.
“Again” was released in 2000 as the only previously unreleased track from Lenny Kravitz’s Greatest Hits album. Written, arranged and produced entirely by Kravitz, the emotional rock ballad became one of his biggest commercial successes, reaching #4 on the Billboard Hot 100 while topping both the Adult Top 40 and Mainstream Top 40 charts. It also became a major international hit, reaching #1 in Italy and the Top 10 in several other countries. The song earned Kravitz a Grammy Award for Best Male Rock Vocal Performance in 2001, marking his third consecutive win in the category.
The song's music video was notable for being among the earliest major music videos made available for online download. Kravitz would go on to make Grammy history the following year, when “Dig In” earned him his fourth consecutive Best Male Rock Vocal Performance award in 2002.
