“This is for every woman who picked up a mic when they told her she couldn’t,” Salt said as DJ Spinderella made history as the first female DJ ever inducted.
OutKast didn’t perform together, but André 3000 and Big Boi shared heartfelt speeches and playful banter, with André recalling their humble Atlanta beginnings … “Great things start in little rooms.” Big Boi later hit the stage, joined by Tyler, the Creator, Janelle Monáe, and Doja Cat for a tribute.
