Hell he worked with Daft Punk & Pharrell last year and they were 2 of the biggest selling artists of the past 12 months.

This is his recognition right there, I really don't know why you invest so much attention to some award ceremony nobody really gives a flying fuck about.
lol

But I wouldn't really define Nile Rogers as JUST Disco.

He is too versatile and eclectic of an artist to just box him as a Disco artist.


I don't care about the RHOF either but I think it is worth mentioning the type of artists they induct over others since the RHOF is a big part of the industry and since this discussion is on the type of artists/genres the industry praises over others, its definitely worth mentioning.
