Footage that brings a heavy metal veteran somewhat confused by the work of a young colleague went viral on social networks
It is to be understood that Ozzy Osbourne don’t be the hottest person in the world about new music trends. Contemporary hip hop work would hardly naturally attract his attention, although he has recorded songs alongside post malone (“Take What You Want” and “It’s a Raid”) in recent years.
That way, you can’t be too surprised by the confused reaction of the madman hearing a rapper use snippets of one of his songs to generate another song. At the same time, it’s still funny.
In early 2021, the heavy metal veteran was filmed by producer Andrew Watt while listening to the song “Let’s Go”, by trick daddy. With shares of Lil Jon It is twistthe track features a sample of the classic “Crazy Train”, Osbourne’s first solo hit after his departure from black Sabbath.
It is true that “Let’s Go” was released a long time ago — more precisely in 2004. However, Ozzy had not heard the work until then. Watch his reaction below.
Lil Jon “reacts to the reaction” of Ozzy Osbourne
As expected, the video with Ozzy Osbourne’s reaction went around the internet and got countless views. Lil Jon himself became aware of it and tried to comment on the matter through a publication on twitter.
Through the social network, he shared the footage and declared:
“I think Ozzy is satisfied. Myself, Trick Daddy and Twista did this classic justice.”

The “bridge” with the current world
Mentioned a few paragraphs ago as the person responsible for showing the music to Ozzy Osbourne, Andrew Watt is one of the most sought-after producers today. In addition to working with the heavy metal veteran himself, he recorded the likes of Camila Cabello, Eddie Vedder, Lana Del Rey, Miley Cyrus, Elton John, post malone, Dua Lipa, Cardi Bamong many others.
The partnership with Osbourne even went beyond the role of producer. Watt is the guitarist on the album Ordinary Manreleased in 2020. On the next album, Patient Number 9(2022), he returned to assume only the technical position, since Madman worked with musicians of the stature of Eric Clapton, Jeff Beck It is Mike McCready (Pearl Jam), as well as his Black Sabbath partner, Tony Iommiand his solo career right-hand man, Zakk Wylde.
