In a surprising yet somehow inevitable twist, the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame has announced its 2025 nominees, including rock legends BAD COMPANY, THE BLACK CROWES, SOUNDGARDEN, and—wait for it—KENDRICK LAMAR’S JEANS.
Yes, you read that right. The very same pair of denim that set the internet ablaze during the Super Bowl Halftime Show have secured a nomination, marking the first time an article of clothing has been considered for induction.
“We believe Kendrick’s jeans have left an undeniable impact on the culture, shaping the future of music and fashion in ways we never expected,” said John Sykes, chairman of the Rock Hall Foundation. “The Rock Hall has always honored innovation, and these jeans… well, they certainly innovated something.”
While most nominees have remained silent on the controversial addition, one legendary band has already spoken up—OASIS. In a brief but quintessentially Oasis statement, the Gallagher brothers declared: “We won’t stand a rapper in the Rock Hall, but competing against a pair of jeans? Now that’s more like it.”
Meanwhile, BILLY IDOL was reportedly seen tearing the sleeves off a denim jacket in protest, and PHISH fans are debating whether their extensive collection of patchwork pants should receive a nomination next year.
Voting is now open, and as always, fans can cast their votes online—assuming the site doesn’t crash from an influx of denim enthusiasts trying to secure a victory for the most talked-about pants in recent history.
Stay tuned for updates as the Rock Hall decides whether a piece of clothing can truly rock… or if this was just another example of the institution stretching the definition of “rock and roll” to its absolute limit.
