Kid Rock has no problem speaking his mind.
The outspoken rocker, whose real name is Bob Ritchie, has found himself as one of the most outspoken entertainers on the right side of the political spectrum, and he doesn’t really care who he offends.
He’s often spotted with former President Donald Trump, and was one of the first celebrity endorsements for the 45th president during the 2016 campaign. And last year, Kid Rock found himself as the face of the boycott on Bud Light after the company came under fire for partnering with transgender influencer Dylan Mulvaney.

Kid Rock knows that he’s a controversial figure these days, but he’s made it clear that he doesn’t care who he offends. From going on rants against “woke” politicians or his Twitter rant claiming that Taylor Swift would “suck the doorknob off Hollyweird” for the chance at an acting career, Mr. Rock knows that he’s pissed off a lot of people along the way, but calls himself “uncancellable” because he just doesn’t care:
“I am uncancelable… because I don’t give a fuck…
I’m not in bed with any big corporate things at the end of the day, there’s nobody that beholden to, no record companies no corporate interests no nothing, you can’t cancel me.
I love it when they try.”

Of course not everybody’s a fan of his divisive nature. At a time when nobody can agree on…well, anything, outspoken figures like Kid Rock are guaranteed to piss off half the country any time he speaks out.
And in a recent interview with Rolling Stone, Kid Rock even acknowledged that he’s part of the problem when it comes to political division in our country right now:
“I’m part of the problem. I’m one of the polarizing people, no question. Sometimes I bitch about other people, then I look in the mirror and I’m like, ‘Oh, yeah, why don’t you shut the fuck up too?’”
It’s a problem, he claims, that comes from not having anything to lose at this point in his career:
“It’s a rich-guy issue. No fucks left. I’m not going to get it right every time, but I know my heart’s right. I want the best for this country.”
I mean, at least he’s self-aware?
