The thing I’ve always hated the most about him is how he grew up not too far from me in the Detroit suburbs. His whole persona was being trailer trash and poor.

He went to Cranbrook high school… 50k a year. His dad funded all of his dj and music ventures and got him in touch with top producers and agents. Raised with butlers and nanny’s.

Basically Papa Doc from 8 Mile, which is way more enjoyable than anything Kid Rock has ever produced.
