A lot of hip-hop fans have written Kid Rock off as some kind of joke. Metalheads have done the same, and the holier-than-thou indie community probably doesn't even know he still exists. Or that he ever did. But all of that was just fine with him and the crowd at the sold-out Kool Haus, which consisted of a healthy mix of bikers, older guys with...

Kid Rock — Live Trucker

in
By Andre Mihsin (CHARTattack) March 28, 2006 12:21 pm
He may not be going eight times platinum anymore, but if you were to ask Kid Rock he'd probably tell you he's still in his prime, despite everyone's best efforts to destroy him. Kid has dropped the cocky redneck wigger shtick from the nu-metal days and has stuck to just being a cocky redneck that loves to entertain anyone who wants to see him....

Kid Rock — Kid Rock

By Elizabeth Chorney-Booth (CHARTattack) November 11, 2003 1:56 pm
Last year Bob Ritchie reinvented himself and saved his career with "Picture," the lone great song on the otherwise terrible Cocky. With this new self-titled album, the Kid continues on that little-bit-country-little-bit-rock ‘n’ roll vibe, not quite striking the right balance, but certainly making a step in the right direction. The songs...

The Trews are opening for Kid Rock this summer. It might not seem like east coast hard rock would go with southern rap rock, but this actually makes perfect sense in our brains. D-Sisive and Muneshine are working on a gangsta rap album as The Birthday Boys. Consider this advanced warning. Check out the godawful cover art for Limp Bizkit's new...

Kid Rock Hates Twitter

You won't find Kid Rock trash-tweeting his fellow musicians. That's because he hates Twitter, and as he told Rolling Stone, "It's gay." "If one more person asks me if I have a Twitter, I'm going to tell them, 'Twitter this shit, motherfucker,'" said the rap-rocker born Robert James Ritchie. "I don't have anything to...

Let Kid Rock Quench Your Thirst

Maybe Kid Rock can ask that pesky judge he doesn't like if having a beer named after himself counts as community service.
