I've heard it all now.:icon_eek: :scratch: Sharon & Ozzy have completely lost their minds.

From: Blabbermouth.net

In one of the most unusual summer-tour pairings in recent memory, the Ozzfest Web site announced Monday night that there will be one final act added to this year's second-stage lineup: actress Jada Pinkett Smith's rock group, WICKED WISDOM.

The addition of the Christian-leaning rock-and-soul hybrid to a summer touring package that boasts ferocious metal merchants like BLACK SABBATH, IRON MAIDEN, SHADOWS FALL, MUDVAYNE, IN FLAMES and THE BLACK DAHLIA MURDER is unexpected, to say the least.

WICKED WISDOM is an EVANESCENSE-esque act that Pinkett Smith, the band's frontperson and the wife of actor/rapper Will Smith, has said is influenced by ANI DIFRANCO, PRINCE, TORI AMOS and SEVENDUST. The group also includes a guy named Pocket on guitar, another fellow named Rio on bass, keyboardist Cameron Graves and drummer Satnam Ramgotra. This summer's Ozzfest stint will mark WICKED WISDOM's first North American tour: The group primarily performs club gigs in and around Los Angeles, although it has opened for PAPA ROACH and was the support act for BRITNEY SPEARS' 2004 European tour.

I predict she'll get hit by flying beer bottles and there's sure to be a riot.:lol:

I've heard them Riff, and they were actually pretty good. Suprised me really, and I wish her luck. I'm just not sure this is the right venue for them. Ozzfest fans are already talkin bout throwin shit at them and what not. NOT COOL.
Interesting because Jada Pinkett has openly said how she hates white people. I might buy tickets just to throw beer cups at her...
I went to a Wicked Wisdom song clip page and heard one song and it sounded like Beyonce Knowles r&b type stuff? She's gonna burn.:toothless

I used to love her and Steve Harvey both, and I tell you what, I'm more black than some of the brothers out there nowadays, but both of them have said flat out they hate white people. It fucking crushed me. So I do very little to support either of them now. Not becuase they hate white people, but because they displayed such bigotry in a day and age where we have to move on, and many of us have. Sorry Sucka.
No need to apologize dude, that type of crap is inexcusable. I'm not really a fan of hers, and after knowing this I can't look at her the same way. Nor Steve Harvey whom I did respect. Unreal that a person can be that way. I know Lauren Hill basically said the same shit when she declared that she doesn't make music for white people.

I hate ignorance.
If she has openly stated that she hates white people, she is in deep shit.
I don't expect a lot of african americans to be at OzzFest supporting her act.
I predict she won't last 3 shows before getting axed off of the bill. Damn she may get seriously hurt when she steps out on stage.
Yea she better have a decent security crew.
