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.
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.
Yes thank you.Heard it long time ago I thought it was just Sweet Home Alabama with some lame ass lyrics, but he knocked off music from Warren Zevon. Either way wasn’t written by Kid Rock.
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.
The only song of his that i ever heard, is a bad cover song. Why is he even famous?

Did Pamela Anderson just make sex tapes with every Rockstar wannabe in those times? Because I definitely remember the one with Tommy Lee.
He did the duet with sheryl crow too.
Bawitiba is a cover?
Not a cover but a riff of Rapper’s Delight.
No, the Sweet Home Alabama one. I don’t know the one you are talking about.
Ahh, the one I mentioned is the only one I remember hearing on the radio. Had no clue he covered Sweet Home Alabama.
No I think he means Werewolves of London by Warren Zevon.
And calling it a cover is generous. He stole the music but replaced the lyrics with some boomer content.
