LOS ANGELES — Legendary metal musician, and noted septuagenarian, Ozzy Osbourne broke new ground when he became the first old white man to complain about a rap song and actually be on the right side of history.
“This is the first time we’ve ever seen a person of Ozzy’s age, wealth status, and complexion complain about a rap song or artist and actually be correct. Especially when they say it in an all-caps Tweet,” said music scholar Aiden Lawrence
Old man who supposedly “hates rap” has a hit song with Post Malone, maybe the problem is just antisemitic asshole Kanye West, as usual. 🤷♂️
The Hard Times really is just a suck ass version of the Onion, this satire just seems desperate to make a joke. Like yes we know that Ozzy’s an old white guy and that other old white guy rocker’s have turned out to be embarrassments, but is that all you have for the comedic premise? Weak shit.
Ozzy doesn’t hate rap he hates fascists
The subject being satirized in this article is hip hop/rap “criticism” that’s just a racist dog whistle. Not Ozzy Osbourne. They’re using a real news item about him in order to satirize racism because his reason for denying use of his song subverts the trope of the “old guy who hates rap for racist reasons.” Ozzy is not the butt of the joke here, but please, don’t let that get in the way of your righteous indignation and pearl clutching on behalf of Ozzy.
