Kid Rock: "Steal everything!"

From Yahoo! News:

Kid Rock jokingly urges fans to `steal everything'


Kid Rock wants fans to know it's OK to illegally download his music.

And while they're at it, they should steal cars, designer clothes and iPods, too.

Well, maybe not.

The 37-year-old Detroit musician posted a "special announcement" on YouTube last week urging fans to "steal everything."

Kid Rock says in the video that he's so rich, he can't complain if fans steal a song or two off the Internet without paying him.

In fact, he says, people should "level the playing field" by stealing anything they need from wealthy corporations.

He mentions laptops, iPods, Toyota vehicles ("It's a foreign car company, so who cares?"), gasoline and Tommy Hilfiger clothing as potential targets for the five-finger discount.

But the rap-rocker, who has resisted selling his music on iTunes and other online stores, tells The Associated Press he was just kidding.

"I was just trying to have some fun with it," Kid Rock said before playing in Wednesday's Buick Open Pro-Am, with friend and pro golfer John Daly, at Warwick Hills near Flint.

The video had more than 100,000 views as of Wednesday afternoon.


That fool should thank his lucky stars people are still listening to his music at ALL, whether they stole it, bought it, or found it laying on the street in front of a dumpster. rolleyes

i couldn't tell you a single song from his album, what his album is called, when it came out or what he's even up to right now. i honestly had no idea he was still relevant, other than getting in a slapfight with tommy lee over that peta woman with the boobs.

and does he have a point? it seems awfully passive aggressive, whatever his point is.

I think the fact that he's teamed up with John Daly...



...should tell you everything you need to know.

Kid Rock is without a doubt one of the top 5 luckiest individuals in the world.

The strange thing is, I've heard him sing, and he wasn't that bad. So why has he made a career of being a complete doofus?

I agree. I've always liked Kid Rock though boxed. I know many people think he's an untalented foul mouthed red neck with a big beer belly, but i've always found him entertaining in his interviews. He's not stupid either. Some of his music is pretty good too.

"Only God Knows Why" & "Picture" feat. Sheryl Crow are great songs imo.
"And When The Groove Is Dead And Gone, You Know That Love Survives, So We Can Rock Forever" RIP MJ heart

"Baby, that was much too fast"...Goodnight dear sweet Prince. I'll love you always heart
