Mr. Nimbus | 07/19/2024

Kid Rock took the stage at the fourth and final night of the Republican National Convention on Thursday (July 18), performing his 2000 track “American Bad A–,” switching up the lyrics to support Donald Trump.

Throughout the performance, the singer shouted “Fight, fight” into the crowd, in reference to the July 13 shooting at a Pennsylvania Trump rally, where the former president was seen mouthing the same words to the audience as he was taken away by his Secret Service team after being grazed on the ear by a bullet.

“American Bad A–” samples Metallica’s “Sad But True,” though the band has yet to publicly react to the RNC performance.

Earlier in the day, Kid Rock announced on social media that he had arrived in Milwaukee, Wisc., ahead of the convention. “We just arrived in Milwaukee to support our tried and true, red, white and blue, 100 percent American bada‑‑ president,” he says in the clip, wearing a National Rifle Association cap. “What’s gonna happen tonight? Tune in to find out. But here’s a hint — are you scared?”

Following the performance, a number of users took to social media to share thoughts about Kid Rock’s time at the RNC — and he was mostly met with viewers mocking the situation. Former First Lady Melania Trump’s reaction to the performance went viral, with viewers noticing that she appears to be containing laughter, though it is not confirmed what she actually thought.
