Ozzy Osbourne Deletes Message Slamming 'Antisemite' Kanye West

Rock music legend Ozzy Osbourne criticized Kanye West for using unauthorized Black Sabbath samples in his new album "Vultures."

The angered singer took to social media to air his frustrations while branding West an "antisemite" whom he wants nothing to with.

The controversial rapper has a history of anti-Semitic remarks, which has caused him to face criticism and lose multiple deals.

Osbourne recently slammed Kanye West on X (formerly known as Twitter) for incorporating an unauthorized sample of Black Sabbath's "War Pigs" in a song on his upcoming record, "Vultures," with Ty Dolla $ign.

Following West's album listening party in Chicago at Chicago's United Center on Thursday, Osbourne, 75, expressed that he wanted "no association" with the "Praise God" rapper, citing West's history of controversial statements.

Taking to X, Osbourne condemned West's alleged antisemitism, writing: "@kanyewest ASKED PERMISSION TO SAMPLE A SECTION OF A 1983 LIVE PERFORMANCE OF 'WAR PIG' FROM THE US FESTIVAL WITHOUT VOCALS & WAS REFUSED PERMISSION BECAUSE HE IS AN ANTISEMITE AND HAS CAUSED UNTOLD HEARTACHE TO MANY."

He added: "HE WENT AHEAD AND USED THE SAMPLE ANYWAY AT HIS ALBUM LISTENING PARTY LAST NIGHT. I WANT NO ASSOCIATION WITH THIS MAN!"

During West's album listening party live stream on Thursday at Chicago's United Center, the transmission abruptly ended after the Grammy-winning artiste referred to himself as a "crazy, bipolar, anti-Semite" in one of his songs.

Following this controversial lyric, the streaming service Veeps cut to a black screen and muted the audio, seemingly censoring West.

West has a controversial history of anti-Semitic remarks and has faced criticism for them, resulting in lost lucrative partnership deals.

In 2022, the "All of the Lights" rapper went on an anti-Semitic rant, vowing to go "death con 3 on JEWISH PEOPLE."

Additionally, his track "Vultures" from his upcoming album contained derogatory lyrics about Jewish individuals, which reads: "How am I anti-Semitic? I just f----- a Jewish b----."

West's latest actions have been quite confusing, especially after the rapper released an apology to the Jewish community, claiming that he never intended to "hurt" anyone with his remarks.

The rapper said, "I sincerely apologize to the Jewish community for any 'unintended outburst.' I did not intend to hurt or demean, and I deeply regret any pain I may have caused."

He continued, "I am committed to starting with myself and learning from this experience to ensure greater sensitivity and understanding in the future. Your forgiveness is important to me, and I am committed to making amends and promoting unity."

The rapper's apology, penned in Hebrew, was met with Scrutiny, with many claiming it was not genuine. Later, reports alleged that it was actually his wife, Bianca Censori, who forced West to apologize, worrying about her and her husband's safety.

Promised to be released on February 9, fans were left puzzled when the anticipated "Vultures" album didn't drop.

The "Donda" rapper had previously announced an event in NYC for the album, sharing a cryptic clip from its lead single's controversial music video, which read: "Vultures UBS Arena New York 02 09 24."

Later, West posted a video snippet titled "VULTURES (Havoc Version) by Jon Rafman," showcasing dystopian landscapes, a masked figure resembling him holding a firearm, and a burning church in the background.

He also teased a Chicago listening party for his joint album with Ty Dolla $ign while clearing his Instagram account for the second time in a week. Earlier this week, the rapper hinted that the listening party is set for Thursday at the United Center, sharing the news on Instagram.

West posted an image of the number "1," likely alluding to the release of "Vultures, Volume One."

Additionally, both West and the "Sucker for Pain" singer, 41, shared a promotional image announcing "Vultures United Center Chicago 02 08 24."

However, as of now, the United Center's schedule for Thursday remains open, with the Chicago Blackhawks playing on Wednesday and Friday.
