Mariah Carey and N.W.A could be headed to the prestigious Songwriters Hall Of Fame.

The legendary vocalist and the pioneering gangster rap group have been named as 2018 nominees for the Songwriters Hall. Both Carey and N.W.A join the list of over 20 nominees which include the Isley Brothers, Kool & the Gang, and Tracy Chapman.

Mariah Carey, who just celebrated her Chinese Theatres hand imprint, happens to be the artist with the most number 1 hits on the Billboard Hot 100 chart, totaling 18 hits, 17 of which she has co-written herself.

While Rock & Roll Hall Of Fame inductees N.W.A could become the second rap act to make it to the Songwriters Hall, right behind Jay-Z, who entered the organization a part of the 2017 class.

Six songwriters will officially be inducted June 14, 2018.
