Awards: Rush has come to release 24 gold records and 14 platinum records (3 of which have gone multiplatinum), placing them within the top 4 for the most consecutive gold albums by a rock band. Rush ranks 78th in U.S. album sales according to the RIAA with sales of 25 million units. Total worldwide sales approximate 40 million units.

Reputation: More than 30 years of activity has provided Rush with the opportunity for musical diversity across their discography. As with many bands known for experimentation, changes have inevitably resulted in dissent among critics and fans. The bulk of the band's music has always included synthetic instruments in some form or another, and this is a great source of contention in the Rush camp, especially the band's heavy reliance on synthesizers and keyboards during the 1980s, particularly on albums Grace Under Pressure, Power Windows, and Hold Your Fire.

With the band being together for over 30 years making albums, turing all over the world, having the best drummer in the world & over 40 million units in sales the group RUSH deserves to be inducted into the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame.
