LOS ANGELES — Legendary metal musician, and noted septuagenarian, Ozzy Osbourne broke new ground when he became the first old white man to complain about a rap song and actually be on the right side of history.
“This is the first time we’ve ever seen a person of Ozzy’s age, wealth status, and complexion complain about a rap song or artist and actually be correct. Especially when they say it in an all-caps Tweet,” said music scholar Aiden Lawrence
I don’t think either of you understand the point of the article. The subject being satirized in this article are people who use hip hop/rap criticism as a racist dog whistle. Not Ozzy Osbourne. They’re using an accurate headline based on a real news item about him in order to satirize racism because his reason for denying use of his song subverts the trope of the “old guy who hates rap for racist reasons.” So no, it doesn’t belong in c/nottheonion. It’s 100% satire and was posted exactly where it belongs.
