Some of music’s most iconic acts can officially count themselves as rock royalty.

The Beastie Boys, Guns N’ Roses and the Red Hot Chili Peppers are among the bands to be inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame next year.

The 2012 class also includes Rod Stewart‘s former group, The Small Faces/The Faces, as well as the late singer-songwriter Laura Nyro and folk singer Donovan.

Chaka Khan, Joan Jett, Donna Summer and The Cure were among those that were eligible but didn’t make the cut.

The 27th annual induction ceremony, to be held in Cleveland, will take place on April 14.

It will air on HBO in May.

    No Joan Jett! What the hell, she is an inspirational woman who started with nothing then got everything just to get it taken away and have to start from the begin.

    Not fair, bias towards men

    Beastie Boys, Guns N’ Roses, and the Red Hot Chili Peppers…are you effing kidding me? Joan Jett should have been chosen waaaaay before these people!

    Who is in charge of chosing the inductees? Joan Jett was in the top five when voting ended…I smell a payoff! How sad the Rock-N-Roll Hall of Fame officials are no better than american politicans.
    Love you Joanie!
