Funny thing is I would have never listened to kid rock except my mom bought me one of his cds when I was like 12 because she thought it was rock music for kids.

It was rock music for kids, Kid Rock even has a song about it.
Young ladies, young ladies, I like ‘em underage,” Rock sings on the track. “See some say that’s statutory.” His sidekick at the time, the late Joe-C then chimes in, “But I say it’s mandatory.”
Now this is a delicious LAMF moment.
Imagine being 55 years old and still insisting people call you "Kid" Rock.
Pretty sure it's a brand name at this point. I can't imagine anyone listens to him for his music.
They basically just use it as a fashion accessory to make other guys think they're masculine
Don't you know his name consists of the two things he loves most in life? Rock and kids.
🤣
or being known for only only song.
Was that the one about diddling kids or was that another one? I've never heard that or any other song from him tbh, I just remember that he apparently sang about how he likes kids
I would assume it's the one with the nonsense words they hired him to perform at the alternative half time show because the guy doing the real halftime show wasn't singing in proper English.

Nobody much paid attention to that one until recently, after all he hadn't been relevant at all for twenty years.
Instead he'll just stay home shooting beers.
I'll never get over the conservative boycott over Bud Light by... checks notes.. buying a shit ton of Bud Light and shooting it.
What a smart thought process. I'm going to spend money on the thing I don't want to spend money on and just blow it up instead of just... Not buying it.
Insthed he'l jusht shtay hoem shootin' bears
doing those wierd exercises in the SAUNA with RFK JR ISNT good enough?
Jesus I thought that was a bad dream
We're all stuck in this bad dream together, friend.
My ex wife's mom was a kid rock megafan. She had kid rock tshirts in heavy rotation, had kid rock bumper stickers on her car, and went to concerts as often as possible. She even had limited edition, rhinestone encrusted kid rock shoes. She was one of the dumbest people I've ever encountered and a real piece of shit person.
Several years after divorcing my wife she still texts me asking for money (she's a dirtbag gambling addict) despite fact I've ghosted her. I will never block her, because getting those texts is a sweet reminder that I've escaped my shitty ex's shitty family. Fuck you Linda, you hateful garbagemonster
I used to be a huge Kid Rock fan.
But in my defense, I knew nothing about him, I was 10 years old, I'm German, and I understood none of the lyrics.
(My biggest dream was one day being able to move to the US. Yeah, that changed, too.)
Yeah, I liked him when he came out, but I was literally 12. In my 20's I used to half ironically bust out Bawitaba when I was hanging with the boys as a throwback, and we used to half jokingly have it be our anthem. Then 2016 came and he started fondling Trump's balls daily. We haven't played it since.
I mean he said it in the song "Now get in the pit and try to love someone" - you can't get much deeper in the pit than Trump.
I adore my wife but her family is awful, it’s a tough spot. They’re so toxic
This is so tough. My partner's mother is a vicious manipulator and abuser, still tries to put her hands on her grown children. I love him so much and want to do my best to support him but I can't have a relationship with her. She's not permitted at our house because every time we've tried, she starts a toddler tantrum over whatever comes to mind and gets violent.
I worry it weighs heavily on him and I wish I could stomach more interaction with her, I imagine it would make his life easier in some ways. But I've hit my max when it comes to abusive people. I'm a domestic abuse survivor and I simply don't have any more space for folks who behave that way.
I worry it weighs heavily on him
I'm on the other side of that equation, and while my father being a racist POS weighs a bit on me, inviting him over and dealing with that bullshit fallout would be 50x worse.
ya' doin' fine
Kid Rock got shown up by fucking Vanilla Ice and Milli Vanilli. Who thefuck in the past 30 years has ever thought "I wanna hear Vanilla Ice and Milli Vanilli".
Jesusfuck, 250th year Anniversary of this country and this is the "talent" we have to show for it. Fucking Vanilla Ice and Milli Vanilli......
Milli Vanilli?! One of them is dead, though....
To be fair, we have plenty of talent from 250 years. It's just that most of them don't want to perform for Trump.
You know they were so butthurt about the Superbowl they threw their own party. Their party here is going to suck and we all k ow it, time for everyone else to throw their own 250th party
Has ANYONE actually heard Milli Vanilli?
Unpopular opinion but as a collective artistic project I have no real issue with their music. And in fact, it's quite good. Yeah sure their presentation was dishonest but I'd argue no more than modern auto tuned artists.
Isn't it just Milli now? I thought Vanilli offed himself. Or maybe it's the other way around. It would be disingenuous if one of them claimed to be a Milli or a Vanilli, when they aren't. Girl, you know it's true.
Milli Vanillus. It's Latin.
I think they got someone else to off themselves for them.
Girl you know girl you know girl you know…
I mean, tbf to Milli Vanilli, they dropped out. In fact, their response was something along the lines of "we never signed up for this shit"
Several artists said that they were never even asked.
Milli Vanilli, they dropped out
Hasn't the group only been one guy since the other one died in 1998?
The denial of involvement was from vocalists Jodi and Linda Rocco
