Kid Rock praises Eminem and Taylor Swift for speaking out on their political beliefs
Kid Rock recently expressed admiration for fellow artists Eminem and Taylor Swift despite disagreeing with their left-leaning political stances. In a social media post, the outspoken MAGA supporter and Trump ally praised Eminem and Swift for using their influence to support political causes, stating, "I love Eminem... I give credit to him and people like Taylor Swift for standing up and not being afraid to be vocal for that which they believe."
Eminem responded via X; "Here's one thing @KidRock and I do agree on .... Go @Lions!!!! Appericiate you, Bob"
This statement comes as both Eminem and Swift have shown support for Democratic leaders, with Eminem appearing at a Kamala Harris event in Detroit and Swift endorsing Harris. While Kid Rock's support for former President Trump remains steadfast, he emphasized that differing views reflect the freedom America upholds, underscoring his belief that “thinking differently…is what makes this country great.”
The three artists have long been outspoken, with Eminem known for his 2017 BET freestyle condemning Trump and Swift embracing her Democratic affiliation publicly in recent years. Kid Rock’s latest remarks highlight his longstanding friendship with Eminem, who appeared on Rock’s 1998 track "Fuck Off" and included Rock in his 2013 "Berzerk" video, showcasing their camaraderie despite political divides.
