Ozzy to Release Ozzfest 2000 Album

Ozzy Osbourne and manager/wife Sharon are planning to unleash some of the best live performances of the last two Ozzfests and release them on their own Divine Records label. According to a source close to Osbourne, they are "still getting clearances" for some of the material, thus the track listing is still being created. The disc has a tentative release in early March, just about the time Ozzy's latest solo album is to hit the streets.

Despite earlier reports, Osbourne will not have a role in the forthcoming movie, Bubble Boy. "They asked him to participate but he had to decline since he's been working on his album," said a spokesperson for Osbourne. Ozzy has suspended work on the disc for the holidays but will begin recording again in January.

“My President”

Young Jeezy | 2008

Young Jeezy teams up with Nas on this track, in which he compare his own success with the idea of an African-American winning the Democratic Party's nomination in the 2008 presidential election. "When I pulled up in my car, that s--- was unbelievable to people in my neighborhood because they were like, 'We grew up with him. How the hell did he accomplish this?'" he told Rolling Stone. "I feel like it was the same way with Obama. I grew up all this time, but I've never seen a black man this close to running this country."
