Jelly Roll Paid Tribute To Ozzy Osbourne At The 2024 Rock & Rock Hall Of Fame Induction Ceremony

Jelly Roll was one of the people in attendance at the 2024 Rock & Rock Hall Of Fame Induction Ceremony to pay tribute to the legendary Ozzy Osbourne. 

On October 19, 2024, Ozzy Osbourne was inducted into the Rock & Roll Hall Of Fame alongside Mary J. Blige, Jimmy Buffett, Foreigner, Alexis Korner, John Mayall, MC5, Suzanne DePasse, Big Mama Thornton, Dionne Warwick, Norman Whitfield, Dave Matthews Band, Cher, Peter Frampton, Kool & The Gang, and A Tribe Called Quest.

Jelly Roll gave a passionate rendition of “Mama, I’m Coming Home,” and while his performance was not well received by fans, it’s clear just being there to honor one of his heroes meant so much to the “Save Me” singer.

Right after Jelly Roll got off stage, he took to X and wrote, “That was crazy – anyone got a video of me honoring Ozzy.”

Ozzy Osbourne Leaves A Lasting Legacy

Ozzy Osbourne died at the age of 76 this week. His family announced his passing in a public statement on Tuesday (July 22).

“It is with more sadness than mere words can convey that we have to report that our beloved Ozzy Osbourne has passed away this morning. He was with his family and surrounded by love. We ask everyone to respect our family privacy at this time,” the statement read.

The news of his death comes just weeks after his farewell show on July 5. During the performance, he reunited with his original Black Sabbath bandmates Tony Iommi, Geezer Butler, and Bill Ward.

Diagnosed with Parkinson’s disease in 2019, the rock singers health had been a growing concern in recent years.
