As you can imagine from the title of this album, the content is going to be interesting and also implies that someone obviously thinks a lot of himself. Following in Jesus’ steps, Kid Rock has taken it upon himself to use his music to preach about the ways of the rock and roll bible whilst occasionally making it sound like it could be believed. As before, Kid Rock has used someone else’s classic song to push his stuff and again he adds nothing to the track. The track in question is called ‘All Summer Long’ and has sampled ‘Sweet Home Alabama’ among other tracks.

Although he’s claiming himself to be some kind of modern music messiah, the artwork imagery of guns, bikes and scantily dressed women leaves him some what short of what Jesus is generally perceived as. As for the music, there is quite a wide array of styles on here. There isn’t as much rock as you would expect someone called kid rock to have put on his album, but this doesn’t mean that the replacement is bad. There are a lot of country style riffs along with some gospel and soul influenced songs along with a slight garnishing of metal.

The production on this album is of the highest quality and the songs do have a kick to them. The inclusion of a gospel choir complements the soulful tones beautifully and even if the lyrical content and his image is slightly off the mark, he can write a catchy song and there are some good tracks on this album. This album really showcases his varied musical taste and his ability to write very well across several genres and this does make up for his awful image and lyrics.
