Eminem and Kid Rock are both from Detroit and have been outspoken over the years when it comes to American politics. The two musicians stand on different ends of the political spectrum, but one thing they can agree on is that celebrities speaking their minds could be a good thing (depending on what's being said, because Kid Rock is mean).
Anyway, Kid Rock recently posted a video on Instagram of himself playing acoustic guitar while also calling out fellow Detroiters and Taylor Swift. “Now that I have your attention, let me tell you, I love Eminem, we've been friends for many years,” he said after strumming his guitar. “I don't agree with his politics, but I give credit to him and people like Taylor Swift for standing up and not being afraid to speak up for what they believe in.”
He added: “Thinking differently and having the freedom to do so is what makes this country great. My attitude is clearly MAGA because I know in my mind, body and soul that President Trump will make America great again. God bless the USA.”
Eminem confronted his friend's name and responded to X, writing on Twitter: “Here's one thing @KidRock and I agree on…GO @Lions!!!! I appreciate you, Bob.”
Eminem recently introduced former President Barack Obama at a rally in his hometown of Detroit, where the former commander-in-chief rapped part of Em's “Lose Yourself” record.
Slim Shady basically echoed what Kid Rock mentioned about being vocal. “I'm here tonight for two important reasons,” the legendary rapper told the crowd. “As most of you know, the city of Detroit and the entire state of Michigan mean a lot to me. Going into this election, the spotlight is on us more than ever and I think it's important to use your voice, so I encourage everyone to get out and vote, please.” Em continued, “I also think people shouldn't be afraid to voice their opinions, and I don't think anyone wants an America where people worry about punishment or what people will do if you voice your opinion.”
