Product Description

Amazon.co.uk Review

Kid Rock maintains a remarkable propensity for wearing his contradictions on his sleeve, and more than anything he's previously released, Rock 'n' Roll Jesus finds fuel in unresolved opposites. Is he a hard-core chauvinist ("Half Your Age") or a would-be gentleman ("When U Love Someone")? Is he a God-fearing everyman ("Blue Jeans and a Rosary") or a bohemian hero ("So Hott")? These questions are nothing new, even if the album at hand takes them to freshly delirious extremes. Ever since he first began shedding his rap/rock posture to be the next Ted Nugent, Kid Rock has constructed his public persona out of full-frontal ambivalence: race, class, sex, religion, money, whatever it takes. This album's bookends--the title song and "bonus" track, "Lowlife (Living the Highlife)"--demonstrate all this irreconcilable nonsense in no uncertain terms, but all his polar wobbling is at least stabilised by a firm commitment to southern-styled rock, tinged at times with gospel, blues, a lingering need to rap ("Sugar"), and a rare, soul-fed instrumental jambalaya ("New Orleans"). In the end, Kid Rock may be a remarkable self-promoter, but a musical Messiah he is not. --Jason Kirk


CD Description

'Rock 'n' Roll Jesus' is the follow-up to Kid Rock's self-titled 2003 effort. This release from the Detroit-born rapper/rocker is an album full of southern rock, hip-hop and honkytonk, created with the help of long-time backing band, Twisted Brown Trucker. Rock uses his lyrical style to take on issues from race relations to religion to rock 'n' roll excess. Singles include 'Too Hott'.

5.0 out of 5 stars Fantastic, but a warning!, 28 Jul 2008
By Mr. L. Tempest - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
This album is great, Kid Rock has been a favourite for years, and this new album does not disappoint.
Be warned if you are new to Kid Rock and are considering this on the back of 'All Summer long' playing on the radio at the moment then please be warned, this album contains some VERY strong graphic language in the lyrics of a number of songs, especially track 5!

5.0 out of 5 stars So Hott!, 25 Jan 2008
By M. Harknett "1touch" (Ashingdon/Manchester, UK) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
Kid Rock is back with a major bang with his latest offering 'Rock N Roll Jesus'! It has been 4 years since Rock released an album of new material, and he hasn't disappointed with what he's delivered. The album opens with the terrific title track 'Rock N Roll Jesus', which is a true rock 'n' roll song if ever a modern rock artist could produce one! The first two singles off the album 'So Hott' and 'Amen' soon follow, 'So Hott' being surely the catchiest rock tune of 2007 with the opening lines "You got a body like the devil and you smell like sex, I can tell you're trouble but I'm still obsessed...", and 'Amen' introduces the continued "biblical overtones" that run throughout the album to quote Kid Rock himself (go to www.kidrock.com for a brief interview regarding the new album from the man himself!). Some other gems on the record are 'Don't Tell Me U Love Me' which has a fantastic chorus to it, and 'Half Your Age' which is a wonderful song full of clever quick-witted remarks towards a certain ex-wife of Rock's. This is a great record as the Kid once again makes progressive moves in terms of his musical style. Don't expect a rap album. This is pure honky-tonk, rock 'n' roll, country soul! England needs to stand up and take notice of the American Bad A**. He's pulled a firecracker of a record out of his finely tuned hat again! Simply listen and enjoy!

5.0 out of 5 stars Totally different, totally awesome, 12 Dec 2007
By M. Hoole (Devon, UK) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
Have only been a recent convert to the Kid Rock scene recently, despite hearing the 'Devil Without A Cause' track many years ago.

Looking at the progression from 'Devil', through 'Cocky' to this, his style appears to be changing, and a certain mellowing with age does seem to be apparent; apart from 'So Hott' and 'Sugar', the use of his more colourful language is reducing and the style is going more country and less rap/rock.

Not that this is a bad thing, by any stretch. Most of these tracks are instantly addictive with their catchy tunes (the deep-south swing of 'New Orleans' being a notable example), hard-hitting and often humorous lyrics (Lowlife being full of some great lines, as is the intro talk to 'Half your age') and their funky style; this album sounds like Kid had some fun in the studio rather than being focused on trying to get some issues off his chest.
