Kid Rock-Led 'Rock the Country' Festival Canceled in SC After Nearly All Performers Pull Out

Came here for this. XD

It was an mp5. Just fyi.

Edit for clarity: guy is still a complete tool despite having good taste in guns.

I always think of his Kid N' Play hair when I think of Kid Rock....

My favorite Kid Cock moment

Let's not get all of the Kid Rock fans excited.

Kid Rock is what happens when your dad owns a bunch of car dealerships and you're raised on an estate with an orchard but want to cosplay being a poor white kid.

I'm not even joking.

Whatever's left in those liquid dump boxes at airports. X_X

🤮

Man that’s brutal

Or diarrhea

He did not, his people said he was put on the list without his knowledge.

Ludacris' rep claimed it was "a mix-up" that he was ever part of the lineup in the first place.

Well that is what Bud Lite was made for. Its certainly not fit for human consumption.

In 1998, he released a Rap-Rock album with metal and southern rock influences called Devil Without a Cause that was widely considered an exemplar of rap-rock and played heavily into his then Redneck Pimp stage persona. It was critically acclaimed with most professional reviewers giving 4/5 stars or 80/100 and better scores while selling ultimately over 11 million copies. And it had some legit bangers (even if they're hard to listen to now with what a shit bag he's either become or revealed himself to be).

Later he transitioned away from rap-rock toward country, Southern rock, and blues while adopting shitty conservative politics to go with his new stage persona. This is what most people know him for now.

Bawitiba is a cover?

He was a huge one-hit wonder (?) as far as I knew who later made a sex tape with Pam Anderson. I would think a few Gen X and Gen Y might remember that. Oh, and he had appearances in shows like Simpsons and cameos in movies. The only movie I sort of remember him in is Joe Dirt.

I doubt many boomers or Gen Z/alpha know him for anything other than getting butthurt about Bud Light.

I heard his album on repeat for one day while cruising with this kid that almost killed us driving like an asshole bottoming out the speedometer and blowing through a few country stop signs for good measure.

It's ok, it's nothing great, now that we know he's a piece of shit it falls even flatter though, he's a devil with a cause now, helping to fix elections to put the worst people in the world in permanent control.

Rock the Country has sparked backlash after social media users presumed that the festival is affiliated with the “Make America Great Again” conservative movement fueled by President Donald Trump. (Concert organizers have not publicly addressed its political affiliations.)

Possibly playing the victim? Those dastardly bands with morals don't want to play for real Americans. When likely they just don't want to be associated kid rock and racism. Artists will generally play for anyone if they get paid!
