Eminem Reveals ‘One Thing’ He & Kid Rock Can Agree On After His Fellow Detroiter’s MAGA Message
Eminem and Kid Rock are both from Detroit and both 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 mind could be a good thing (depending on what’s said, because Kid Rock be buggin’).
Anyway, Kid Rock posted a video on Instagram recently of himself playing an acoustic guitar while also shouting out his fellow Detroiter 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 the strings on his guitar. “I don’t agree with his politics, but I do give credit to him and people like Taylor Swift for standing up and not being afraid to be vocal for that which they believe.”
He added: “Thinking differently and having the freedom to do so is what makes this country great. My stance is unequivocally MAGA because I know in my mind, body and soul that President Trump will make America great again. God bless the USA.”
Eminem caught wind of his friend’s name-drop and responded on X, tweeting, “Here’s one thing @KidRock and I do agree on… GO @Lions!!!! 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 hit record “Lose Yourself.”
Slim Shady essentially echoed what Kid Rock mentioned about being vocal. “I’m here tonight for a couple of important reasons,” the legendary rapper told the crowd. “As most of you know, the city of Detroit and the whole 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’m encouraging everybody to get out and vote, please.” Em continued, “I also think that people shouldn’t be afraid to express their opinions, and I don’t think anyone wants an America where people are worried about retribution or what people will do if you make your opinion known.”
