INTERVIEW WITH KID ROCK ON A HORSE
Kid Rock is a confusing mixture of rap, rock, ridiculous, and, of late, country. The latter is often served with a side of conservative, right-wing nutjob sauce: Kid Rock is best known, at this point, not for his music, but for the viral video of himself mowing down a case of Bud Light with a semiautomatic rifle in protest of Anheuser-Busch’s relationship with transgender influencer Dylan Mulvaney.

INTERVIEW WITH KID ROCK ON A HORSE
PROPOSAL
Dave Carnie
Kid Rock is a confusing mixture of rap, rock, ridiculous, and, of late, country. The latter is often served with a side of conservative, right-wing nutjob sauce: Kid Rock is best known, at this point, not for his music, but for the viral video of himself mowing down a case of Bud Light with a semiautomatic rifle in protest of Anheuser-Busch’s relationship with transgender influencer Dylan Mulvaney. Bawitdaba da bang da dang diggy diggy diggy, indeedy. We thought the self-proclaimed cowboy and “American badass” would be a perfect addition to our Country Issue, so we sent him the below interview proposal.
Kid Rock’s management did in fact respond to this proposal via email just prior to press time, but unfortunately, they chose to pass on this interview opportunity. The email also included Kid Rock’s response: “Absolutely not. Tell them to give us a call if they ever talk about music in their ‘music’ magazine.”
