Bernard Edwards rest in peace he was there too....

Artists like Nile come by rarely. His sense of song and celebration is hard to articulate. I agree with Pharrell, Nile is a 100% legend and just try to get your head around his contribution to music, gosh, good luck with that. And to top it off, he's a stellar human being. The icing on the cake is that, I feel certain, that he made many LGBTQI people not only treasured but made us shake our booty too. Love ya work Mr Rodgers.

Nile is one of the most humble musicians of all time... what a fantastic feel player... he's simply great

Such an eloquent way to describe Nile and his genius

Yeah if you’re not hooked on phonix lol jk yeah never knew his body if work. Heard he was in a band that came out with coming out, freak out and we are family but that was it. I kind of deal like they down played Nile in terms of hits he produced for white singers. Only time I saw him on tv was regarding his band. Never saw photos of Nike Rodgers with the white artists he produced. I mean let’s dance was playing on a network that refused to play black music. They only allowed rock music vids to play. Which funny enough rock music was invented by black people. Done poorly by whites who tried had to emulate the soul raspy voices of black rock artists but couldn’t so they end up with that weird high pitch sound weird they turned rock into something weird due to lack of innovation. The focus became more white to the point where it was looked at as white music. Now the same is being done to pop, R$b, almost did it to rap. It’s whatever we will continue to innovate new sounds, genres through our souls

About time he's in! Smoothest guitar player ever.

I could listen to nile Rodgers and chic all night

Nile is Extraoadinaire!!!...

Congratulations 🎊 💜 🎊 Congratulations

Nile Rodgers you are the Best, love u forever, congratulations you deserve it all the way, much Love from favorite fan Bigg Lynn of Harlem

Talented,gifted and generous

Long long long overdue

Now that hear it. Nile is everywhere. RESPECT.

He deserves all the accolades in the world! What a unique talent.

So deserved. Overdue. Thank you, legend!

Pharrel is such a good speaker.

Legendario! Mr Rodgers.

one of the greatest musician ever !!

Thanks for dressing up Pharrell! But your speech was very good, very well thought.

About time!!

So it takes $3 billion insales to get inducted? it took 40 years, his band CHIC gets denied every year though no matter what. just think with $2 billion sold, hundreds of millions of albums and singles, with the top artists, he got denied year after year, because mainly he is seen as disco, and those that do the inducting hate disco more than anything, but a lot of them have died and that is trhe only reason he got in, but not his band.

This IS SO BEAUTIFUL!!! I HAVE TO BE HONEST I WISH THE AWARD WENT TO CHIC.. THE FAMILY. Bernard Edwards Alfa Anderson Luci Martin and Tony Thompson . Him and Bernard get the award for producers m

Awesome musicians

Awesome

e strepitoso e meraviglioso

Not until now?

Now if Nile Rogers from Chic can be inducted into the Rock And Roll Hall Of Fame Why Can't Luther Vandross.

That's a great question. It's a shame that neither Chic or Luther are in the Hall. It's become little more than a popularity contest. Very sad.

What took you so long?

Will Smith sampled one of his songs

First

im not reading autoque honestly...

I wonder if ozzy will ever be inducted into the r&b hall of fame
