Ozzy Osbourne is gone, and it’s hard to believe.
Just weeks ago, he took the stage one last time at the Black Sabbath: Back to the Beginning concert, delivering a short but powerful farewell that felt like a full-circle moment. Now, that goodbye hits even harder.
For more than 50 years, Ozzy was an unpredictable, unforgettable, and undeniably iconic force. As news of his death spread, artists from every corner of the rock world — and beyond — began sharing memories, tributes, and tears.
