I am not sure if you have heard yet but Kid Rock has come out with his new CD titled "Rock and Roll Jesus". I have listened to it and I am kinda impressed to say the least! The album takes a different route this time around with a much more slower pace and a more southern rock. All in all it sounds more mature and takes a little bit more from the south and combines it with the always popular Detroit rock. It really reminds me of Lynard Skynyrd just a little more rough. The song titled "Rock and Roll Jesus" really puts the impress of that. Now when you go more into the CD the songs get toned down and deep but still has the old time soul to it. The song "Roll On" is a particular favorite of mine, just because it gives that outlook of life and I think he captures it really well. I also have to say I am a favorite of "Lowlife" it is a bonus track, but it has that dirty gritty feel to it and it is just plain country rock! I love it. The CD in a whole has put a whole different style to Kid, it is something I really didn't expect from him at all. I like it but I remember the Sex, Drugs, and Booze Kid not the Southern Junkie. I think it just goes to show that he can really do it all, whether it be Rap, Rock, or Country he can go with the best. Nice stuff! If you are looking for a taste go to MTV.com and you can search Kid Rock and it should appear.

It could be going a little too far by comparing Kid Rock to one of the most legendary southern rock bands, by legendary I mean Lynard Skynard. In my opinion, Kid Rock's overall rap-metal genre cannot compete with classic rock, even though he is trying to change things around by starting to put a little country in the mix.
Yeah I agree and I am not saying that he is anywhere near Lynard Skynyrd but all I am saying that he is making it seem like he is kind of posing as them, even though posing is a bad term I think you know what I mean
I like his song Daddy Cool, most specifically the lyrics.
