Ozzy Osbourne<\/a> is “deeply honoured” to have been nominated for a second spot in the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Ozzy Osbourne could be inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame for a second time<\/p>\n

The 75-year-old rocker was already inducted as a member of Black Sabbath<\/a> in 2006, and he’s on the shortlist of potential honourees for this year, meaning if he is voted in, he will become the 27th person to have multiple places, joining the likes of Sir Rod Stewart, all four Beatles, Jeff Beck, Stevie Nicks and Jimmy Page in having two, while Eric Clapton has three, one on his own and others as a member of both the Yardbirds and Cream.<\/p>\n

Speaking after the nominations were announced, Ozzy said in a statement: \u201cI\u2019m deeply honoured to receive this news from the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame.<\/p>\n

\u201cTo be one of the few musicians who\u2019s being considered for a second entry, now as a solo artist, is something I could never have imagined. After 44 years as a solo artist the fact that I can continue to record music and receive this recognition is something I am incredibly proud of.\u201d<\/p>\n

The late Sinead O’Connor – who died last July, aged 56 – is also nominated, alongside the likes of Mary J. Blige, Mariah Carey, Cher, and Oasis.<\/p>\n

\nThe list of nominees also includes Dave Matthews Band, Eric B. and Rakim, Foreigner, Peter Frampton, Jane\u2019s Addiction, Kool and the Gang, Lenny Kravitz, Ozzy Osbourne, Sade and A Tribe Called Quest.<\/p>\n

\nJohn Sykes, the chairman of the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame Foundation, said in a statement: “This remarkable list of nominees reflects the diverse artists and music that the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame honours and celebrates.<\/p>\n

\n“Continuing in the true spirit of rock and roll, these artists have created their own sounds that have impacted generations and influenced countless others that have followed in their footsteps.”<\/p>\n

\nHonourees will be announced in April and the ceremony will be staged in the autumn of 2024.<\/p>\n

\nOzzy’s wife and manager, Sharon Osbourne, called for him to be honoured as a solo artist by the organisation last year.<\/p>\n

\nSpeaking on ‘The Adam Carolla Show’ in November, she said: \u201cThey know that Ozzy deserves to be there.<\/p>\n

\n“They know he\u2019s been a solo artist. You\u2019ve gotta be doing it for 24 years. He\u2019s been 43 years as a solo artist. He sold nearly a hundred million albums as a solo artist. So where is he? Induct him!\u201d<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
