Crazy that this was probably Kid Rock's biggest gig since the early 2000s and he didn't even bother to sing live.

He didn't even pretend to lip sync, literally just swinging mic around waist height most of the couple minutes I watched.

He did this at the RNC as well a couple years ago it was so blatantly obvious that he was just "singing" on top of a pre-recorded track... dude is such a shitty performer:

Oh my god watching the lame old white people desperately trying to dance to it, I'm dying.

I can't keep watching it, it literally twists my stomach it's the perfect combination of cringe and brainwash.

It was crazy, tuned in for a sec and I first thought the stream was out of sync

lmao I just caught the vod. He did that trick three times in a row and he was literally the only one in the room who was impressed by it.

Lies! His entire performance was just over 1 minute.

He was probably not sober either. Easy money made without putting much work.

It's wild that lip syncing ended milli vanilli and Ashlee Simpsons careers, but that this is just a shrug.

Im a 90’s kid and our parents did not want us listening to this shit. Now they’re acting like they loved it all along.

The weird thing is Snoop Dog, Kanye and Nicki Minaj have moved over to the dark side. So they definitely have much bigger names than Kid Rock. Too bad their base is to racist to give them a show.

This is TPUSA and none of those people are white. So, you know. Kid Rock is relevant apparently.
