Known as the Prince of Darkness, Ozzy’s impact went far beyond heavy metal. His music defined a generation, his stage presence was electric, and his off-stage antics made him a cultural figure few could ignore, but beneath the wild persona was a devoted father, husband, and an artist who wore his heart on his leather sleeve.

From the early days with Black Sabbath to his later solo success, Ozzy’s sound left a mark that continues to influence musicians across genres. For many, his music was the soundtrack to their youth. For others, it was The Osbourneshis chaotic, funny, deeply human reality show – that introduced him to a whole new audience.

Rest in peace, Ozzy.
