Ozzy Osbourne , Steve Stevens , and Billy Morrison have teamed up for the new song "Crack Cocaine" from the album The Morrison Project . The new track was accompanied by a music video starring Paris Jackson.
“The song was a direct result of sitting in a room with Steve, both of us with out-of-tune guitars, and writing what we thought was a definitive Ozzy riff,” Morrison said about the song. “From there, we brought Ozzy in and we all sat down working on the lyrics, but 90% of them came from Ozzy himself. He was the one who suddenly stood up and sang 'Like Crack Cocaine'! We looked at each other and knew we had the title!”
Speaking about Paris's participation in the video, Morrison said: “Paris was so kind to agree to do the video. We wanted someone to play the woman Ozzy is singing about, and we had a mutual friend who facilitated the casting. I was honest with her and told her we were doing everything in-house, without a big record label budget, and luckily she's a big rock fan and wanted to be a part of it. She brought the sense of glamour and beauty to the video that we wanted.”
The song marks the first new track featuring Ozzy's vocals since the Prince of Darkness's 2022 album, Patient Number 9 .
The Morrison Project will also feature appearances by Billy Idol, Corey Taylor, Al Jourgensen, John 5, Darryl “DMC” McDaniels, Linda Perry and more. The album will be released on April 19th.
