Sade will skip their Rock Hall induction but sends thanks

Sade confirmed on the band's official website that they will not attend this weekend's Rock and Roll Hall of Fame induction, with Sade Adu saying their absence takes nothing away from what the honor means to them. Inducted on their second nomination, the London band also saluted the late producer Mike Pela. Their selective, low-profile career shows that consistency and mystique can outlast constant visibility.
