Kid Rock: Rap-Rock Rebel to MAGA King
from Don't Praise The Machine (DPTM)
How did a guy who used to jump around in a white fur coat screaming "Bawitdaba" end up advising the Pentagon and hanging out in MAGA’s highest circles?While his massive 1998 breakthrough album Devil Without A Cause pitched him as a raw, trailer-park, anti-establishment hero, the actual research reveals a slightly different story. From growing up on a wealthy Michigan estate with horses and orchards to commanding a massive modern cultural movement, we trace his bizarre 30-year journey through Nu Metal, Lynyrd Skynyrd samples, legendary tabloid drama, and full-blown political royalty.It turns out Kid Rock and Donald Trump share a very specific, unique superpower and it’s exactly why their paths crossed.Pack your bags, throw up the devil horns, and let's learn about the no.1 American Badass together.🛎 Get bonus episodes, early episodes, and exclusive goodies while supporting DPTM!
