Kid Rock Needs Your Ca$h

by Triumphantly Jenny

Before Bawitdaba, Kid Rock made his money with songs like “Balls in Your Mouth.  If you follow that link, you know Kid said he wasn’t political.  I know we’re all surprised because of the topical political nature of that song.  Apparently he’s turned over a new leaf, because he’s featured in a new PSA with a principled and satirical view on music downloading called “Steal Everything.”  In it he pretends pirating is okay only to pull a switcheroo and then equate it with stealing any physical object–like a computer or car.  Sadly for him, his admittance that he is too rich to whine about pirating comes off as more convincing than the anti-pirating tirade, in my opinion.  Were any of you convinced by Kid Rock’s witty argument?

I don’t know about you, but I prefer my musicians to take a harder stance on a different kind of piracy.  You know, the rum, parrots, gold, peglegs, and scurvy kind.  Check it out–Senryu is living the real rockstar lifestyle like the cool kind of pirate.  Getting scurvy and wearing sailor shirts.

Take that, Kid Rock!  I bet any day now Senryu and Pam Anderson will be getting married.  And divorced.
