Since we lost the Prince of Darkness almost two weeks ago, many bands and artists have paid tributes to Ozzy during their live shows, but this one from Rod Stewart has gotten a lot of attention lately, aaaaand not necessarily in the best way possible.
He went in full AI mode to honor Ozzy by putting together an AI-generated tribute video of Ozzy *posing using a selfie stick with other deceased musicians* like Kurt Cobain, Tupac, Freddie Mercury, Michael Jackson, and more. While we understand where he was going with it, this tribute has created backlash from the internet… as expected. Many fans sy it was way too soon to be posting content like this, noting that it’s very “bizarre” and the other musicians in this video “wouldn’t want to be remembered this way.”
Thoughts? Watch below.
