The Rock Hall Reconsidered Project: Round 47 (Class of 2028) Results
After the Round 46 Results were revealed, each nomination committee member was asked to compile another list of 40 currently-eligible artists to create the Round 47 ballot. With the addition of newly-eligible artists for the Class of 2028 (who released their first record in 2002) to the mix. With 14 spots available from the last round, the committee replaced their existing nominees and generated an official ballot for Round 47:
