Ozzy Osbourne, the legendary rock singer who fronted Black Sabbath, has died. He was 76.

The "Crazy Train" singer's family confirmed the news in a statement *.*

"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," the family wrote. "We ask everyone to respect our family privacy at this time."

The statement was signed by his wife Sharon, and children Jack, Kelly, Aimee, and Louis.**

Osbourne was diagnosed with Parkinson's disease in 2019. "It's been terribly challenging for us all," he said as he announced the news in 2020. "I ain't going to go anywhere yet."

** Just three weeks ago, Osbourne played his final concert, reuniting with the original lineup of Black Sabbath — guitarist Tony Iommi, bassist Terence Butler (known as Geezer), and drummer Bill Ward — at England's Villain Park. "I don't know what to say, man, I've been laid up for like six years," he said during the show. "You have no idea how I feel — thank you from the bottom of my heart. You're all special. Let's go crazy, come on."
