The pro-Trump author took to Twitter on Monday (Aug. 29) to suggest that Kid Rock who is also an avid supporter of Donald Trump should release a new album on the same day as Midnights. People are craving real music with thought-provoking and emotional lyrics. Who better to give it to them than Kid Rock? he wrote. I GUARANTEE his album would outsell and outclass hers!
In 2021, one in every 50 albums sold was Swifts, according to MRC Data, and she was the countrys second most-streamed artist following Drake. Swift sold 2.4 million albums last year, 2.17%, up from her leading 1.89% in 2020.
Thats not all. After hearing that he was trending on Twitter, Adams doubled down on his thoughts with a video. Kid Rock is an American bad ass alpha male and Taylor Swift is an American embarrassment and the worlds largest polluter. I stand by every word! he captioned the clip, before adding, Raise your children to be like Kid Rock and Kyle Rittenhouse, NOT Taylor Swift and Harry Styles!

LMFAO, alpha male my ass. I saw the seating chart for Kid Rock's Oct. 1st show at Glen Helen in San Bernardino. That place holds 60,000 people. The place is half empty! Tickets were going for $30! They couldn't give tickets away! Meanwhile Taylor could sell out multiple nights there and a few at SoFi and come out ahead in the deal. WTF is this guy smoking?

(4,616 posts)you might be referring to Eminem. Who by the way can blow kid rock out of the water as well. I like Eminem and Taylor Swift. Kid rock, not so much.

(82,849 posts)Albums can take a really long time to get right, and the idea of someone putting together a full album ready for release in nine weeks is ludicrous. But then I thought, "It's just Kid Rock, not someone who is all that meticulous about his 'craft'. He could do it and nobody would notice any fall-off in the quality of his work."

(67,502 posts)It's just an excuse to act like an asshole and shrug it off as genetics.
"Alpha-dogs" are even worse, since they are blissfully oblivious to the fact that canines don't have an alpha-beta hierarchy; neither domesticated dogs nor wolves.
Chimpanzees do, and that explains a lot...

Kid Rock?
Hell, Cardigan has made me cry (esp. the video) and so have a few others from her staggeringly great Pandemic-era output (the albums folklore and evermore).
I was never into her before those two albums but F*** are they good! I've since come to enjoy Red quite a bit as well.

(37,601 posts)Kid Rock
Cruising through town in my jacked up truck
Eyes open 'cause I'm scopin for a big butt slut
One that I can take straight back to my house
And have suck my dick and put my balls in her mouth
Now get, get with it looked across the street
Seen a slimmy in a skirt bopping to the beat
So I capped up my forty threw it under my seat
Rolled up on the freak and I started to speak
But before I could she go grabbed my dick
Licked her lips and started talking that porno shit
She said "look here I know our kid rock"
Then whispered in my ear "I want to swallow your cock"
Well blow me up then blow me down
'Cause I think I just found the biggest freak in town
And now I can't wait to get her back to my house
Set her on her knees and put my balls in her mouth
Balls in your mouth
Balls in your mouth
"you want my balls in your mouth?"
Back to my crib with no delay
Big grin on my grill and not much to say
Except hey yo bitch how's about
I drop my drawers and put my ballis in your mouth?
Then it was like straight out of a porn
She dropped to her knees and started blowing my horn
And after that without no doubt
She opened up wide and put my balls in her mouth
Next to cutie started rubbing my back
She put her finger right between my booty crack
So I grabbed her wrist quick and said hold up slut
"Ain't Nobody sticking nothing in my butt"
Now right then I knew I had a ho and a half
And all that I could do is sit back and laugh
Stare at the ceiling thinking about
This chick I just met's got my balls in her mouth
Balls in your mouth
Balls in your mouth
"you want my balls in your mouth?"
After I busted my nuts I drover to the cut
She said "I hope you don't think that I'm a big slut
And please don't tell anyone what we've been through"
Next day I told the whole fucking crew
Spread the news through the whole damn town
And to that chick it must have got back around
So I told the ho sorry and tried to make amends
But she tried to fuck me in front of my friends
Running off at the lip talking all that shit
That I'm a bitch I'm a prick and I got a small dick
I just waited til she walked away to shout
"Fuck You Bitch You Had My Balls In Your Mouth!"
Balls in your mouth
Balls in your mouth
"you want my balls in your mouth?"
I guess to a righty, this counts as "classy".

(32,746 posts)will Taylor Swift still sell more copies of her new album than the plagiarist ever sold in his entire career?

(17,412 posts)Unless you're craving sophomoric 💩, boring samples of other more successful songs, and 💩ty lyricism.
I'm no Swift stan but her following is massive and devoted. Kid Rock would be lucky to pull in a faction of her record sales.

(15,550 posts)Nick Adams comes home, takes off his sports coat, loosens the Windsor knot of his tie, and headbangs to Kid Rock with his stereo turned to a respectable 3 - or 4 if he's feeling crazy - on volume.

(43,820 posts)Rock's latest album, Bad Reputation, released in March, was his first in several years. You would think there would be pent up demand for it. You'd be wrong. Two weeks after its release, the album had sold 25,000 copies.
The album finally debuted at number 124 on the Billboard 200 chart on April 23, 2022, a month after its release.
Swift's most recent album, released in 2020 in digital format only, sold a million copies in its first week. Six months later, it was released on vinyl and sold over 100,000 copies in the first week of vinyl availability.
Kid Rock could release 10 albums in October and the combined sales of them won't come within a country mile of the sales Swift is going to rack up.
