>Kid Rock (aka Bob Ritchie), a middle-class white kid the outskirts of Detroit, became a rapper under the influence of Run-DMC and debuted in 1990 with an album which fused the classic hip-hop tradition with Detroit's own tradition of loud rock music. Three albums followed: Grits Sandwiches For Breakfast (Jive, 1990), The Polyfuze Method (Continuum 1992), later reissued as The Polyfuze Method Revisted (Top Dog, 1997), and Early Mornin' Stoned Pimp (Top Dog, 1996), and countless live shows constructed his cult image of madman, before Devil Without A Cause (Atlantic, 1998) established him as a major force in the genre. The album refined his fusion style with a powerful blend of hip-hop, heavy metal and southern boogie. The pounding earthquakes of Bawitdaba (augmented with a sinister quasi-voodoo chorus and a noir feeling of unending alienation) and Devil Without A Cause (the quintessential manifesto of his art, symphonic ouverture and stomping groove, hip-hop hooks and gospel shuffles, Lynyrd Skynyrd and Rage Against The Machine, funky licks and metal crunches) resonate like pure dynamite where most rap-metal is only bad-boy attitude. Somebody's Gotta Feel This and Fist Of Rage are charged with real madness. Alice In Chains' grunge-pop tones down the otherwise angry motto-song of I Am The Bullgod, and the power-ballad Only God Knows Why shows some emotion, but, mostly, Kid Rock knows no restraint. Is he right?
>>129408176yeah i know, he gave it literally 1 point less to Led Zeppelin albums. Idk why people read music reviewers. Dont take any music reviewer that doesnt play music seriously. Not a single one. Especially not Fantano.
>>129408199I have an idea about how to make proper reivews, first you need to determine which mood the music on average intends to induce and then the 0 to 10 rating makes sense on how effective it is at inducing it. Kid Rock music is not bad at making you feel badass but there is def better bands. Kid Rock is something that sort of fits in a Gym while lifting.
KR is pure trash for trash people and thems the facts, folks
