What's to hate about Kid Rock?

My initial point was that Kid Rock seems just unlikeable to me. He seems like a belligerent, jingoistic, too patriotic redneck. I don't know about you, but I find those characteristics a bit repellant. Thus, I'm not fond of him (I don't think I'd say I hate him,....I reserve that verb for other artists). But, as far as I'm concerned, there are plenty of reasons not to like him.

alex ts: lil jon vs. the darkness

Don't really know enough about either, but I certainly prefer Lil Jon's "Get Low" to the Darkness' "Thing Called Love" (the only songs I've heard from either).

Gents, I have to retire for the evening. I'm sure you have lots of slings and arrows with my Kid Rock-disrespecting name on'em, but they'll have to wait `til tomorrow. Cheers.

I bet my left testicle that after Hank Jr. croaks Kid Rock takes over the "Are You Ready For Some Football?!" gig on Monday Night Football.

he's not a redneck, he grew up in a mansion. If anything, his faux-populism is what annoys me, but maybe he's just reflecting the times.

Man, I hope it was on one of those really fake 'country house' sets with dandruff snow and a roaring fireplace, or it would be shit.

I watched. Just for Hank JR and the Kid deep frying a turkey, total classic. The live stuff was tough to sit through though, a bit too 'live action Simpsons' for me

I went to the Calgary Stampede and this guy I stayed with was dissatisfied with his outfit and said, "This is a shitty cowboy hat." and I said, "Maybe you're just a shitty cowboy." and he was geniunely offended. Fucking moron.
