Editorial Review:
Rock Is Back. After 22 million records sold in the US and a three year hiatus, Kid Rock is back with the brand new album 'Rock N Roll Jesus'. Kid Rock hustled in the Detroit underground for over ten years before he burst into the mainstream in 1999 with the timeless rock anthem "Bawitdaba." Other hits like "Cowboy" and "American Bad A**" followed while ballads like his "Picture" duet with Sheryl Crow and "Only God Knows Why" helped to propel him forward as one of the greatest artists of our time. His latest offering Rock N Roll Jesus is no exception, running the gamut from hard rock to hip-hop to country and soul. Of the album, which Rock co-produced with Rob Cavallo (Green Day, Goo Goo Dolls, My Chemical Romance), he says: "I am proud of every single song on this record. It works from start to finish."

Description of Rock n Roll Jesus:
Kid Rock maintains a remarkable propensity for wearing his contradictions on his sleeve, and more than anything he's previously released, Rock n Roll Jesus finds fuel in unresolved opposites. Is he a hard-core chauvinist ("Half Your Age") or a would-be gentlemen ("When U Love Someone")? Is he a God-fearing everyman ("Blue Jeans and a Rosary") or a bohemian hero ("So Hott")? These questions are nothing new, even if the album at hand takes them to freshly delirious extremes. Ever since he first began shedding his rap/rock posture to be the next Ted Nugent, Kid Rock has constructed his public persona out of full-frontal ambivalence: race, class, sex, religion, money, whatever it takes. This album's bookends--the title song and "bonus" track, "Lowlife (Living the Highlife)"--demonstrate all this irreconcilable nonsense in no uncertain terms, but all his polar wobbling is at least stabilized by a firm commitment to southern-styled rock, tinged at times with gospel, blues, a lingering need to rap ("Sugar"), and a rare, soul-fed instrumental jambalaya ("New Orleans"). In the end, Kid Rock may be a remarkable self-promoter, but a musical Messiah he is not. --Jason Kirk

People en Español
Pareciera que Kid Rock está madurando, en Rock and Roll Jesus ha dejado atrás al típico rockero que se conformaba con escandalizar, y se ha atrevido a navegar las aguas de otros géneros como el country y el blues en canciones como "New Orleans" y "All Summer Rock," además Rock se ha olvidado del hip-hop, hoy denuncia la muerte absurda de soldados en Irak y el racismo. Pero no crea que el músico se ha convertido precisamente en un santo, el disco incluye canciones poderosas como "So Hutt" que es puro rock o "Half Your Age" en la que no es secreto que vuelca todas sus frustraciones por haber perdido a Pamela Anderson. En la canción él dice que ahora tiene una chica más joven y más hot. En suma Rock and Roll Jesus es un material mucho más maduro, pero si quiere escuchar al Kid Rock escandaloso y despreocupado de antes quizá no sea buena idea comprarlo. Por el contrario si le gusta el hard rock de los años 70 y el country, este es un álbum que le gustará. --Ernesto Sánchez (People en Español People en Español)

2009-11-01 - Purchased as a gift for a friend. The next time a friend mentions a song they'd like to have check on Amazon, the low cost of what you may be able to find is amazing. Shipment is quick and I've been very satisfied with all the CD's I've ordered from Amazon.

Comes up short 2 Star Review
2009-07-18 - In the pantheon of Southern rock, including bands like Lynyrd Skynyrd, The Allman Brothers Band, Bad Co., and many others, Kid Rock does not compare. His song, ``Sweet Home Alabama's'' most identifiable hook is a sample of Warren Zevon's intro to ``Werevolves of London.'' Kid Rock's song is intended as a paean to Skynyrd's song of the same name. But it is repetitive and trite. Skynyrd's song took a controversial stand, defending George Wallace, the segregationist governor of Alabama in the 60's, from Neil Young criticism in his song ``Southern Man.'' In comparison, Kid Rock's song is essentially bubble gum music for wanna be rednecks (like him). Zevon also has a song, ``Play it All Night Long,'' which is tangentially about Skynyrd's, ``Sweet Home,'' and far better than Mr. Rock's. Young, Skynyrd and Zevon may have had political differences, but their music at least rocked. In comparison, Kid Rock sucks.

Kid Rock 4 Star Review
2009-05-03 - This is the first CD of Kid Rock I have ever bought. Coming from an era of the (60's) this is a big change for me. I like it because of the beats. Gets your feet tapping. So if your a fan of Kid Rock I would say it is worth the money
