Ozzy Osbourne will be honored at the Grammy Awards on Sunday night with a special performance featuring some of the biggest names in rock.
Guns N’ Roses members Slash and Duff McKagan will join forces with Red Hot Chili Peppers drummer Chad Smith, producer Andrew Watt and singer Post Malone in what’s sure to be one of the night’s loudest and most emotional performances.
All of the musicians have ties to Osbourne, who died in July at the age of 76. Besides each being vocal admirers of the Prince of Darkness, Slash, McKagan, Smith and Watt all took part in the triumphant Back to the Beginning concert last year. Watt worked extensively with Ozzy in his final years, helming 2020’s Ordinary Man and 2022’s Patient Number 9. Meanwhile, Malone collaborated with Osbourne on the 2019 hit “Take What You Want.”
The Ozzy Grammy tribute will reportedly be part of a broader in memoriam segment planned for Sunday’s ceremony.
