Ozzy Endorsed Yungblud But Others HATE Him!?

I don't even know anything about Yungblud or his music. I only know that he exists. So, it's interesting to learn about something new! Thank you for this video!
Edit: and I completely agree with your takes on this by the way

You are one person and if Yungblud is not for you… he is for thousands of people.

I don't see why people defend Youngblood. He's obviously modelling his image as the new version of the "larger than life" classic rock star image which is mostly of the past now (not inherently a bad idea), but he's doing it in such an annoying, cliché way. He calls pop music "fake" and goes on about how superior and real he and rock music is, and insists he isn't a pop star, then makes pop rock obviously inspired by the mainstream pop which he claims to hate. He's like that no Swedish song writers green day poster come to life.

And the amount of people who defend him against the "haters", but say they don't listen to his music and call it pop of some sort, is just odd. Especially since he seems to hate being called pop more than almost anything else, but his defenders just ignore that. It's strange that people defend him against so called elitists, while he tries so hard to be an elitist himself by going on about how fake pop is and how punk he is, and collabing with classic artists to get the credibility of classic rock. He's like a parody of a rock elitist who has ended up being defended by people who are trying to show off how not elitist they are by defending him.

And what's up with the patronising "of course I don't listen to the music, but he's the future of the rock for kids!". We don't talk this way about metal, which plenty of younger people like. We can talk about sleep token without dismissing their music just "metal for kids" and not worth our time. Maybe if you don't like his music, it's because it's not very good, and we shouldn't use the "it's just for kids anyway" to excuse it. People talk about how the fact he was at Disney before shouldn't be used against him, but talk about him as if he's still at Disney.

Ugh Black Sabbath is literally my all-time favorite band and I love the first four solo albums, but almost everything associated with him from his family, and that stupid ass reality show to the way Sharon screwed over so many class musicians who help get Ozzy where he was at. I will always hail his legacy, but I don’t give a crap about what his kids say or this awful yungblud. it’s going to be a sad state over the next couple of years as they beat his corpse into popping out a few products to make money.

I watched this before Yungblud made today's Instagram post, and his post was heavy. He's obviously still trying to figure himself out and deserves grace toward that. Besides, when Ozzy and Aerosmith come calling, wouldn't ANYONE answer? Can we blame the Osbournes for choosing him if he's a personal friend? It's their choice, after all.

You are right, he’s not representing the 70s rockers. HES NOT FUCKING 13 year old girls

You are my only friend

YUNGBLUD IS AWESOME!!!!!!! Ok maybe he shouldn’t have elaborated on mgk, but come on the guy is awesome, besides a heart of gold❤️ So what
he went to private school. He made it bc he’s that good! The ppl who have so much to say know nothing about him. Do a deep dive, you’ll change your tune!! These ppl know nothing. So much envy.,sad🌞😪

Sorry people he ain’t it big pass for me

i've never heard yungblud's music. he's so obnoxious in pictures and video that i'm not sure i want to

I read the comments and it really hits me how pathetic the metal community has become. All this guy did was perform at a concert and be grateful for the opportunity. But just because he was liked by great rock legends like Brian May, Ozzy Osbourne, or Aerosmith — that somehow means they don't understand music anymore…😂 Ozzy, with a music career spanning forty years, doesn't get it. May, who created some of the greatest musical hits ever, doesn't get it. Iommi probably doesn't either. Unlike you losers who obviously know better 🤣 Maybe he is just pop rock, but whether he deserves attention or not is up to the listeners — the ones who actually go to his concerts, not a bunch of couch experts in the comments. Like, seriously

Lamb Of God so good they got a double shout-out in the listed bands 🙌

First of all, I find it very amusing that some people here claim Ozzy didn't understand music. Unlike them, of course, lmao. Dear friends, just because you can strum a guitar and play in bars doesn't make you great musicians. Ozzy was known for having incredible musical intuition and could spot future young stars instantly. This happened with Metallica, with Alice in Chains, with Slipknot, and even with Nirvana, by the way. According to Kurt Cobain's own account, Ozzy offered them to tour together even BEFORE they blew up the charts and were playing small venues. Ozzy also loved different kinds of music, including pop. This guy, Yungblud, has been praised by numerous legendary musicians, from Brian May to Geezer Butler. And although I don't like him either, I think he's cosplaying a rock star rather than being one (especially literally copying Ozzy's, Iggy Pop's, and Freddie's schtick) — that's just a fact. As for Ozzy, he never in his life called him his "heir" or "savior of rock." Yungblud was a family friend. His daughter Kelly introduced them. Ozzy and Sharon appeared in his music video. He, although from a wealthy family, comes from roughly the same area as Ozzy himself — not far off, at any rate. Similar accent, also has ADHD. Ozzy liked him as a person, he liked that he was a charismatic, interesting guy who burned for the stage, and he simply offered him to perform at his concert. He told him to go out there, rock out, be himself, and conquer America. He never designated him as any kind of rock god, nor did he pass any baton to him. YB performed a cover of Black Sabbath's most romantic song and did a brilliant job, by the way. Those who say otherwise are simply lying to themselves.

Another top tier take from Ronnie Radke. 😂😂😂

Just in case. Ozzy never passed any torch and never 'blessed' him in any way. That's all just more tabloid nonsense. This guy was a family friend – Ozzy liked him, liked his charisma and his music too. Ozzy actually loved all kinds of music and casually listened to pop music. He never said that guy was 'the new rock god.' He simply offered him a spot at his farewell show to give the guy a chance to shine. He'd done the same before with plenty of young bands. And he told him to conquer America and be himself. That's literally it…

MGK and Ronnie are what I call Meth copper scrap rock . Hawkins as far as I know was never accepted totally by old Rock and Metal guys Like Aerosmith and Ozzy.

Yungblud is a former Brit pop guy upper middle class raised guy. But so is half of suburbanite American metal.

Ozzy was contractually obligated under Sharon to endorse yungblud

I think I do understand your position on this, but whether Ozzy Osborne was invoked or not, this is not my cup of tea. Be the wellest of wells!

With Ozzy passed on, only thing I want is for Sharon (and her endless grift) to shut the fuck up.
The riff at the end kicks ass and one you REALLY need to hear/buy is Funkadelic- Maggot Brain cd. The guitar player Eddie Hazel absofuckinglutely rips on it.

I clicked on this wondering- why’s a heavy metal dude talking about a rapper…? Nothing in this vid is metal lol

Another sad thing, I don't want Ozzy's kids defining his legacy. Ozzy was a legend before they were born.
All Jack and Kelly bring is a pop face to the Ozzy Osbourne legacy. A commercial and Top 40 cheesey appeal.
I think real and original Ozzy fans remember him from the 1970s and early 80s. When Sharon started to use him as her vehicle to build her brand it got really sticky bubble gum.

They made Ozzy into a commercial pop act in his late years.
In the 70s and 80s rockers and metal heads looked down on that part of the industry, that's why their genres were created. To get away from pop, top 40 and commercial music that the masses swallowed.

Yungblud and Machine Gun Kelly are jokes. Just propped up puppets for the big record industry.
Real rockers and metal heads would avoid these acts like the plague.

Not a fan of his music so idc but MGK should shut up and disappear

I understand everybody’s opinion, but Youngblood is a fake

I'm a little conflicted here: I'm not the sorta rock and metal fan to call Yungblood a poser, but he definitely has given off a weird energy that I couldn't vibe with. But, it does seem like these dudes are giving too much attention to a dude they claim that don't like, and don't rock with what he stands for. I can care less about him coming from money, as long as he doesn't lie about it, and does the work of a musician. Good video Jon! Sidenote: Machine Kelly has no business judging anybody!!!😂😂😂😂
