Ozzy Osbourne (1948–2025)
The Prince of Darkness has taken his final bow, leaving behind a legacy that reshaped rock music
Ozzy was the guy who made misfits feel seen. From the moment he howled through “Black Sabbath,” he gave permission to be weird, loud, broken, and brilliant. He didn’t just sing about madness—he lived it, and survived it.
He was the voice in your headphones when no one else understood. The scream that matched your own. The laugh that reminded you it was okay to be a little unhinged. Whether you were blasting Black Sabbath or “Crazy Train” in your car, or quietly crying to “Mama, I’m Coming Home,” Ozzy was there—raw, real, and unapologetically human.
Rest easy, Ozzy. You gave us permission to be loud, to be strange, and to be ourselves. And for that, we’ll never stop singing your songs.
