[@matthewpulama106]

If I can recall, in the ICP's 1st album, Kid Rock (back when he was an unknown) appeared on one of the songs, so there must have something must have caused those Wicked Clowns to hate Kid Rock. Also, on ICP's Juggalo Championship Wrestling vids, they mocked Kid Rock twice (1st with a jobber named "Redneck Devil Without A Cause" and 2nd with retired wrestler Kid Kash as "Kid Cock" (I should note that Kid Kash had, believe it or not a Kid Rock gimmick in the dying days of ECW)).

It hurts me to think about and try to rationalize.

Seth Kasso WMUWSE was written by Billie Joe Armstrong, the front man, about his father dying of cancer when he was ten, and he walked out of his dads funeral because he was so sad.

[@notactive1378]

I was at Download festival 2008 when Kid Rock refused to go onstage. When it was announced he wasn't coming out there was a slight groan from the crowd, then the most enormous cheer when it was announced that Judas Priest and Disturbed were going to be playing longer sets. Kid Rock should never have been there sharing a stage with Black Tide, Beat Union, Motorhead, Disturbed, Judas Priest and Kiss. Yes, that was the rest of the main stage lineup for that day.

Also, for how great 1001 albums is, it's does have some major duds (Beyonce, Back To Basics, Ctrl by SZA to name a few), it removed some gems (Hail To The Thief, Gorillaz, Sunshine Hit Me, and countless others) and it completely skipped major gems, like In The Aeroplane Over The Sea & Perfect From Now On.

[@brianchavez2829]

[@RacingWorldTV202]

In a college music class I took, I read about Kid Rock, alongside Radiohead and RATM, in a section titled "Genres Without Distinction"...

[@SavageGreywolf]

It also would have been worth it to research Kid Rock's actual past: he's not a poor guy from a trailer, his dad made millions by owning several car dealerships and his family has a place I would not feel untoward describing as an 'estate'. It has an orchard and horse stables! He's not even from Detroit. His phoniness goes FAR beyond his music, his whole image is an exploitative, cynical take on 'poor white folks' to get people to buy his music because HEY, LOOK MAN I'M THE SAME AS YOU when really he couldn't be further outside of their sphere.

[@dasborke]

I feel like Eminem is actually talking about him in the rap battle at the end of Eight Mile. Where he is calling out the other rapper 'Clarence' for being rich, and fake.

[@brianchavez2829]

In simpler terms, he's a fraud. A con artist, if you will.

[@luischavez2899]

@SavageGreywolf “He's not even from Detroit.” yeah, he is actually from Romeo, a small town just an hour north of Detroit. (an hour from Romeo to Detroit by car, assuming there's no heavy traffic.)

[@colico14]

That would help explain him being a Republican...and a Trump-supporting one at that. Keep in mind, 60,000,000+ people voted for Donald Trump, and it's quite likely that a majority of the people that bought Rock's album are the same people that voted for the Orange Kelptocratic Clown-in Thief. Dumb people buying dumb music.

[@RellikInProfile]

Yep most popular music and note I stress the most not all... isn't an artistic expression, it's a carefully calculated product designed to appeal to certain demographics. I had this debate with someone who was indoctrinated with this, they tried to convince me that a band being jerks to their fans, tricking people into thinking they were releasing new music when they weren't in order to keep the hype alive and dicking with record companies weren't actually making carefully calculated moves in order to appeal to the mainstream counter culture until I pointed out everything they did is copied straight from Chumbawamba's playbook. THAT SAID: Sometimes even if it's a product, it can be a good product and consumption of said product isn't always a bad thing and can be used to inspire actual art: I.E. Kids listening to Nickelback, form their own rock band and make music that's about them and their lives is art coming from a calculated product. Although in this case.... Kid Rock is a bag of dicks who's contribution to the culture can be measured in the Undertakers worst gimmick ever.

The problem I have with Kid Rock is that he's basically a weak cover artist, but constantly denies it.

Take "All Summer Long" for example, it's just "Sweet Home Alabama" but with Kid Rock adding his own dirty twisted lyrics. Even setting his political viewpoints aside, his music is still pretty terrible. Since its just other people's work but with really dirty lyrics that would make a 12-year-old roll their eyes.

[@IABITVpresents]

+Aiko Yumi I couldn't care less about Kid Rock anymore until I saw Rap Critic bringing up his Osmosis Jones song in one of the "Worst Lyrics I've Heard This Month" videos. He kinda enjoyed it until he heard the lyric he quoted on this video. And I kinda figured it out now that Kid Rock is kinda singing about underaged girl rape in this... so that means he's into pedophilia too?! Eww indeed.

Oh, Kid Rock. I can't believe my parents were into this guy/music/whatever. And he resort to Country afterwards, and butchered "Sweet Home Alabama", that should tell you something on what my thoughts on Kid Rock. I mean, I may like Rock Rap, but it should *NEVER* mesh with Country. At *ALL*. I don't even know which is worse, Fred Durst or Kid Rock? Wait nevermind, they both suck.

[@nitromagilou597]

Here's my thoughts on this album; 1: This song was *everywhere*. I heard it on the radio, I heard it near house parties/barbecues, I even hear it on movies (I may like F&F: Tokyo Drift, but come on...). Well, it was the _least_ awful Kid Rock song. I found the hook/chorus catchy, but the lyrics were complete nonsense. 2: And I heard _this_ track a lot, too. I didn't like it. I mean, I'm not even a fan of twang, but I could find artists that do it _better_. Seriously, "Country Song" by Seether was better than this. 3: What kind of song is this? Seriously. I mean, what the hell? 4: I don't mean to ask, but what is a "Bullgod"? I mean, this sounds pretty freaking weird. At least it sounds like they put some effort into it. 5: Rollin'? Seriously? Is he _trying_ to outdo Fred Durst on being crap? 6: I have no words for this... I mean, _WHY_ would you mix Country with Rap/Rock? It sounds awful. 7: More empty boasting. 8: What words can I describe this song? I got one for ya: Shit. 9: This was just awful. 10: Oh, I have a Fist of Rage, alright... 11: This song was terrible. I mean, the autotune was awful and it drags on and on. 12: This album can go fuck off... And they dragged poor Eminem into this? Shame on them. 13: More empty-boasting, phony, tough guy macho bullshit. 14: This was terrible. That's all I have to say. So overall, I _really_ hate this album. Mixing _country_ (the music genre I absolutely *DESPISE*) with Rap and Rock was the stupidest thing I have ever heard, the sampling was shameful, his empty boasting is repetitive and obnoxious, and it's all fucking terrible. #DontlistentoKidRock

+Rise Against The Hate. Ignorance Will Never Win. I'm perfectly fine. Besides, my parents were into _so_ much crap, especially my mom, who was into bands like Nickelback, Creed, Puddle of Mudd, and Buckcherry, however she did introduce me to bands like Disturbed, Korn, Stone Temple Pilots, Rage Against the Machine, Pantera, Papa Roach, Linkin Park, Three Days Grace, P.O.D, Temple of the Dog, Drowning Pool, Metallica, Guns N' Roses, Soundgarden, and many others, so it wasn't a complete tragedy. Also, my parents (and to some extent, my little brother) weren't _that_ big into rock music all that much. I live in Texas, and many people I knew (including my family), were mostly into country music (which I *despise* with a burning passion) and I barely heard rock on the radio, so I took what I could get. But hey, I'm not all that salty. I got introduced to a few atrocities, but it did open up my tastes in finding so much better alternatives.

Maybe because I was only 13-14 when DWAC came out, I thought it was a great album to just put on and listen to while doing daily stuff.

The Big Brown Trucker Band doesn't get the props they truly deserve. The shows at that time were awesome!

This was a great episode of Regretting The Past as expected, but you have unearthed some serious PTSD. I have to admit though, the PSA at the end made it all worthwhile and hopefully it will detour anyone blissfully ignorant of his existence from giving his bullshit music a listen.
