In a move no one saw coming — but everyone is talking about — Eminem and Post Malone have teamed up to release a surprise tribute single honoring the late, great Ozzy Osbourne, who passed away just yesterday at the age of 76.

The track? A powerful, reimagined version of “Take What You Want”, the genre-blending hit originally released in 2019 by Post Malone featuring Ozzy himself and Travis Scott.

But this time, the new version carries a devastating emotional weight — with Eminem delivering a brand-new, grief-laced verse, and Post Malone laying down raw, stripped-back vocals that sound like a goodbye and a scream at once.

“This One’s for Ozzy — Forever the Loudest Voice in the Dark”

The track dropped unannounced at midnight, with only one simple line from Post Malone on social media:

“For the legend. For the voice in our chaos. Rest in power, Ozzy.”

Eminem followed shortly after with a black square and the caption:

“Take what you want from me. But not his legacy. Never that.”

The new version of “Take What You Want” opens with Ozzy’s original haunting vocals, recorded in 2019 — but now layered with minimal instrumentation, letting his voice echo in near silence, as if singing from beyond.

Then comes Eminem’s verse — a blistering yet vulnerable reflection on mortality, legacy, and the pain of losing someone who helped shape you:

“He screamed when we couldn’t, he fought when we fell / Now we’re all in the dark and he’s back in his hell / Or maybe his heaven — wherever loud angels dwell…”

Post Malone returns for the chorus, voice shaking, clearly holding back tears in what fans have already called his most emotional vocal performance ever recorded.

Fans React: “Two Generations Just Gave the Ultimate Rock Farewell”

Within minutes, social media exploded.

“Posty and Em honoring Ozzy like that?? I’m a mess.”
“This is how you say goodbye to a legend — no label hype, no gimmicks. Just soul.”
“The most unexpected collab of the year just became the most important.”

The track is currently trending #1 worldwide on Spotify, with fans from metal, rap, and pop communities uniting in a rare moment of cross-genre grief and admiration.

Ozzy’s Family Responds: “He Would’ve Loved It — Loud and Honest”

Shortly after the track’s release, Sharon Osbourne posted a simple, heartfelt response:

“Ozzy respected both of you deeply. He would’ve loved this. Loud. Honest. No filter. Just like him.”

Ozzy’s daughter Kelly Osbourne also reposted the tribute, writing:

“You made the pain beautiful. Thank you, Post. Thank you, Marshall. My dad would’ve blasted this in the car, screaming every word.”

A Final, Sonic Goodbye from Artists Who Owe Him Everything

While Eminem and Post Malone come from different corners of the music world, both have long spoken about their deep respect for Ozzy Osbourne, who shattered genre barriers and redefined what it meant to be loud, vulnerable, and unforgettable.

This tribute isn’t just a song. It’s a passing of the torch, a final bow to a man who gave music permission to scream, to suffer, and to survive.

Rest in power, Ozzy Osbourne. You may be gone, but the world will still shake every time your voice rises — and now, two new giants are screaming your name.
