KELLY OSBOURNE Signs With SANCTUARY RECORDS
September 11, 2003Kelly Osbourne has signed a multi-album recording contract with Sanctuary Records Group, according to Billboard.com. The singer's 2002 debut, "Shut Up", will be re-released on September 30 under the name "Changes", featuring a duet with her father, Ozzy, on the title track. The re-packaged album will also contain four bonus live cuts.
"Changes" is a reworking of the BLACK SABBATH song of the same name, which appeared on the group's 1972 album, "Black Sabbath, Vol. 4". "Changes" will be released as single, and will contain new lyrics written by Ozzy and Kelly, according to Sanctuary.
Kelly split from Sony shortly after the release of "Shut Up", which debuted at No. 1 on Billboard's Heatseekers chart and has sold 155,000 copies in the U.S., according to Nielsen SoundScan.
Earlier this year, manager/family matriarch Sharon said Ozzy was in talks to leave Epic as well. A representative for the Osbournes had no comment on Ozzy's label status.
