Weeks after Ozzy’s death, Waters stated in an interview with The Independent Ink that he “couldn’t give a f—” about Ozzy’s band Black Sabbath.
“I don’t care about Black Sabbath, I never did,” Waters said. “I have no interest.”
Speaking about Ozzy as a person, Waters said, “Ozzy Osbourne, who just died, bless him, in his whatever that state that he was in his whole life. We’ll never know, we didn’t, you know? Although he was all over the TV for hundreds of years with his idiocy and nonsense.”
In his response to the comments, Jack Osbourne slammed Waters. “Hey [Roger Floyd] F— You,” he wrote. “How pathetic and out of touch you’ve become. The only way you seem to get attention these days is by vomiting out bulls— in the press.”

Jack’s comment may not have been an exaggeration. In his book I Am Ozzy, Osbourne criticized Waters and his bandmates. “Pink Floyd was music for rich college kids, and we were the exact f—ing opposite of that,” he wrote.
Ozzy passed away on July 22 at the age of 76. His cause of death was a heart attack. He had been battling coronary artery disease and Parkinson’s.
