Ozzy Osbourne Says He Denied Kanye West’s Request to Sample ‘War Pigs’ on New Album: ‘He Is an Antisemite’
Ozzy Osbourne says Kanye West asked to sample Black Sabbath's 'War Pigs' on his new album, but Osbourne refused because West 'is an antisemite.'
Things have changed since 2010, considering Osbourne seemingly didn’t take issue when West paid homage to Black Sabbath’s “Iron Man” on the “My Beautiful Dark Twisted Fantasy” track “Hell of a Life.” Plus, Osbourne and his wife Sharon dressed up as West and his wife Bianca Censori for Halloween last year. West has been at the center of controversy ever since he proclaimed on X in October 2022 that he would go “death con 3 on Jewish people.” Since then, the Grammy-winning rapper has delivered numerous antisemitic rants full of conspiracy theories about Jews, and reports have alleged that he has idolized Adolf Hitler for two decades. After his initial antisemitic outbursts, West was dropped by his agency, CAA, and lost his fashion partnerships with Adidas, Balenciaga and Gap.
