XM reported the long rumored triple album may be set for a late-June release. I am hoping for a James Hetfield duet to come first!

not true, Kid said in an interview with WRIF this week that the album is coming out Sept-7th and will feature a few guests inc Zac Brown and Sheryl Crow. Wouldn't expect a new single for a couple months yet

I guess he chose to backtrack on his original intention to collaborate with more hip-hop and rap artists in the follow-up to "Rock 'N Roll Jesus".
I know he worked with T.I. and Lil Wayne at one point. That said, if he has set those collaborations aside, I actually think he made the right move.
Namaste,
Lisping Hibiscus

I know i have heard rumors of Eminem guesting again but nothing substantial. They did "Fuck Off" on Devil Without A Cause.

This sounds like a cross between Bob Seger, Bruce Springsteen and 38 Special to me. Impressive production, and while Ritchie isn't as effective as a soulful rock vocalist as he is a rapper or hard-rock vocalist, his charisma and reverence of this music carries him over the top and makes for a persuasive performance. Anyone expecting even an iota of the grit on "So Hott" must look elsewhere, as this sounds like something pulled right out of an American songbook from the late-seventies to mid-eighties. I'm assuming this was released as the lead single more for the purpose of setting the stage for the album, rather than expecting mass radio success. Because if they were banking on the latter, they will surely be disappointed.................as this sounds like something that would have been a monster hit twenty-five years ago, but would fail to achieve any measurable success on any radio format today.

Hopefully he's outgrown the rapper/rocker image from earlier in his career. This song might not engage a lot of the harder PDs into playing it, but it has a lyrical theme and sound that many will enjoy and play.

Hopefully he's outgrown the rapper/rocker image from earlier in his career. This song might not engage a lot of the harder PDs into playing it, but it has a lyrical theme and sound that many will enjoy and play. I don't know if he'll ever fully "outgrow" it, but it definitely seems his heart has increasingly gravitated towards his rock and roll, country and Motown influences. I think it is no question why Kid Rock tends to sell albums in large quantities. Because there's no performer quite like him that can hold his own on a wide range of genres without appearing opportunistic or stiff. Add to that his immense charisma and convincing songwriting capabilities, and we have a well-rounded star performer that's unmatched by few these days. Also, Kid Rock can be called a lot of things, with many noting how arrogant and puerile he can be. But there's one thing both his supporters and detractors can agree on, and that is Ritchie has a vast, genuine love of music. You can tell in interviews just how emotionally attached to his musical influences he is, and that he doesn't merely name-drop Motown tunes to identify himself regionally in song. And he got where he is with a DIY ethic, which is to be respected (indeed I hear many who otherwise can't stand Kid Rock give him credit for working hard to get where he is now) Personally, I don't mind if he continues to dab in rap and heavy rock influences. Because one thing all the genres he has taken on has in common is that they are integral to Detroit's culture. And his love of Detroit is well-represented in his championing of the city's musical diversity. Namaste, Lisping Hibiscus |

I've heard this song all over TV in the past few weeks. The snippets played have been just so-so. Of course, his last album didn't take off until All Summer Long came out. I'm not a Kid Rock fan but I can tolerate his stuff and like it better than a lot of other music that's new today.

Given Rick Rubin produced this album, I have a feeling that I'll tolerate it more than the usual Kid Rock release. I already don't mind this single (I hated all 4 off R&RJ), and I heard on VH1 that he made sure some 'stripper song' didn't make the record. So I'm guessing Rick guided Kid Rock away from the cock rock route this time out. Rick Rubin has also produced a handful of really awesome albums eg System of a Down, Metallica, Ours (which was my favorite album of 2008).

I've got the VH1 Countdown on this morning and Kid Rock is the guest. He is really an okay guy. Just plays up his bad boy image a lot to sell records. Anyway, the song is a complete rip-off of Bob Seger's whole career. It's a fairly strong song but not all that catchy. It won't be All Summer Long II but there still may be another song that they will hold onto for a summer release. Of course, All Summer Long sampled one song and ripped off another but it did make a hit. So originality really isn't an issue with Kid.
The video was very well done. I liked it. Shocked that there were no shantilly clad women in it. That must be a first for Kid.

This is a good track, but it doesn't really have a format to play it except for Heritage Rock - he should send it to HAC I guess
I wish Classic Rock stations would play new songs - then he'd be set
