Rock star Ozzy Osbourne has lashed out at rapper Kanye West calling him an ‘antisemite’ in a dispute over the use of a sample in one of West’s song.
In a post on Twitter/X, Osbourne said that he denied West permission to use a sample of a 1983 version of a Black Sabbath song, but found out the rapper had used it anyway.
He wrote: “Kanye West asked permission to sample a section of a 1983 live performance of “Iron Man” from the us festival without vocals & was refused permission because he is an antisemite and has caused untold heartache to many. He went ahead and used the sample anyway at his album listening party last night. I want no association with this man!
