Earlier this year, the realms of hype bae and goth gf were married after Post Malone dropped his collaborative track with Ozzy Osbourne and Travis Scott, ‘Take What You Want’. The track featured on Malone’s latest record, Hollywood’s Bleeding. 

Malone and Ozzy Osbourne debuted the track live earlier this month, on the last night of the rapper’s tour and it was glorious. Though the addition of Travis Scott and primo camerawork made the affair a whole other echelon of biblical. Also footage of Carrie Underwood just straight vibin’ to Ozzy? Priceless. Check out the performance below.

Discussing how the collaboration came about, producers Andrew Watt and Louis Bell explained to Billboard  that Watt instigated the collaboration after meeting with Ozzy’s daughter, Kelly Osbourne, at a party.

“Kelly played him the tape and he loved it, but then I didn’t hear anything for a while,” Watt shared. “I kept texting Kelly over and over again, and all of a sudden, we got the text from her that said, ‘Dad’s going to do the song. He loves it.’” The rest is history.

It’s a real delight to see Ozzy back in action. Last year, Osbourne was forced to cancel shows after he contracted what turned out to be a potentially-deadly staph infection. Unfortunately, the bad news didn’t stop there, with the rocker contracting the flu, and then pneumonia, and eventually being forced to not only cancel his Australian appearances, but also the entirety of his 2019 tour following a fall.

He is well and truly back on the horse. Last week Osbourne unveiled that his rescheduled ‘No More Tours 2’ tour would be hitting the road again, this time, he’s enlisted the help of shock rocker Marilyn Manson.

The 2019 AMAs saw Taylor Swift honoured with Artist Of The Decade. In celebration of her inauguration, she played a career-spanning medley. In addition to copping a nod for Artist Of The Decade, she also snatched an award for Favourite Pop/Rock record for Lover. This marked Swift’s 25th AMA win, making her the artist with the most wins in the award’s history.
