Editorial Review:
Detroit-bred rocker/rapper Kid Rock has reason to be "cocky," as 1998's multiplatinum Devil Without a Cause established the multifaceted artist with the Southern rock influences as a generally likable braggart able to back up his boasts musically. Rock's Twisted Brown Trucker backup band also spawned a successful solo career for DJ Uncle Kracker, who wrote songs for--but whose turntables aren't on--Cocky. With a little help from fab friends, including actor David Spade, and musicians Sheryl Crow and Snoop Dogg, Cocky covers a mélange of styles, from rap to country, utilizing organ, pedal steel, and harp as well as metallic guitar solos. Ultimately, though, the 14 songs are schizophrenic and not always successful: on "Lonely Road of Faith," Kid Rock turns in a anthemic ballad nearly worthy of Lynyrd Skynrd, whose "Freebird" he samples in the laid-back R&B-flavored "You Never Met a Motherf**ker Quite Like Me," while Crow's vocals on the gentle, country tune "Picture" and the plodding "Midnight Train to Memphis" contrast with the metallic riffs of "I'm a Dog," the nasty "sex rhymes" of "WCSR," and the rapped boasts of the narcissistic title track. Cocky? Indeed. Commendable? Dubious. --Katherine Turman

Lonely Road of Faith Won Me Over 
2008-06-26 - Not sure what this type of music is called, it's not my usual preference, but the beautiful song Lonely Road of Faith won me over, so I bought the CD. There are a few others I like and those I don't, I can skip
It's well worth the money!!:)
2008-02-23 - This CD I've wanted for awhile, but around the small town I love in, they never had it. This is one of his best CD's !!! I suggest it to anyone...
cool guitar style
2008-01-11 - i like this cd most for the kickass guitar work. i also like the whole package but the guitar and bass are awsome. i guess some people don't like him so they won't give it a chance. their loss.
Everything to offer
2007-11-03 - Cocky is kids most underrated work. Like most of his albums this has a bit of everything to offer. It pretty much works from start to finish just like most great albums do. The best songs would have to be What I learned out on the road, Lonely road of faith and my personal favourite Midnight train to Memphis. It's just an incredible album that should be given a try.
