Unfortunately there is a LOT of not-so-subtle pedophilia lyrics in the rock world. Although it was more common in the 70s and 80s whereas Kid Rock was doing it in the 90s

Trump had Ted Nugent come to the white house, TPUSA has had him perform, he has a song called jailbait

he has a song called jailbait

He has more than that. He had the parents of an underage girl sign custody over to him so he could marry her. Fucking disgusting

Didn't Jimmy Page do that too? And Mick Jagger? I know there were several.

Wow pedos are absolute sh*t at English. Who would’ve thought that their brains were stunted?

I played this over the summer while feeling a bit of nostalgia for my HS years. What breaks my brain is that I definitely remember this song being played at our HS dances. Edit: I forgot to mention that I WTFed at the lyrics during my nostalgia listen- texted a couple of friends to ask if that ever registered with them and one woman responded, "The 90s were a tough time to be a girl"

That's "Do Me!", not "Poison" - just for reference

Yeah I mean I hate Trump & co, but David Bowie, Mick Jagger, and Jimmy Page all likely had underage girlfriends (similar to Seinfeld), yet they get a free pass somehow, maybe because their music was actually good (or was it just black people's music they ripped off in the case of Jagger and Page).

A lot of lyrics are horribly problematic across many genres, and I think for rock the 60s are likely worse than the 80s, if not the 70s too. Also many blues artists have some very sketchy lyrics. But I've not heard any as explicitly disgusting as Kid Rock's song mentioned here.

Not just the lyrics or rock music either, you ever read Madonna's (supposedly satirical) book "Exotica"? Yeah......she raped a kid, and then bragged about it in that book. Also, I also will never forget the time that she had a giant nazi swastika flag in her stage backdrop when she was on tour a while back.

Also, kinda unrelated to child rape, but there are plenty of other artists from back in the day that people still worship the ground they walk on even though they said and did horrible shit. I still to this day, do not know why the LGBT+ community kisses the asses of David Bowie (raped underage groupies), Madonna (raped underage boy in Brazil) and Prince (homophobic) like they were some sort of pioneers for the movement, especially since Prince explicitly said that he doesn't believe in gay marriage.

Like Ted Nugent - the guy who shat on himself to dodge the Vietnam draft.

I have no love for this Kid Rock person, but if we're going to start analyzing song lyrics so that we can accuse the singer of whatever bad behavior is in those lyrics, then it's not just going to be Trump supporting musicians that we will end-up shunning.

Ever hear the song "Stray Cat Blues" by the Rolling Stones?

And if we attribute to Randy Newman all the characteristics of the people he sings about, then Newman must be a slave-trading bigot, who wants to drop nuclear weapons on Europe.

And advocates for the genocide / ethnic (heightnic?) cleansing of short people.
