Sade has announced to Page Six that they will not be attending this year’s Rock & Roll Hall of Fame Induction Ceremony in person. In a statement, the band expressed their gratitude, saying, “Sorry we can’t be there in person to celebrate with the other artists. Please know that our absence takes nothing away from how much this recognition means to us.”
Sade described their induction as “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… we are indebted to the ones who’ve been with us on this road to get here.”
