Kid Rock's new single "We the People" slams social media, the news media and the president of the United States before making a plea for coming together.
"We the People" is the most incendiary of three new tracks the Michigan rocker released at midnight Tuesday. The others are a midtempo rock song, "The Last Dance," which is inspired by his parents' 50-year marriage, and "Rockin," a country ballad, which name checks Bob Seger and Marvin Gaye.
"We the People" is a rap-rock offering with a chorus of "Let's go Brandon," popular right-wing code for "(F—) Joe Biden." He doesn't need code for his feelings on a host of other topics: "Man, (f—) Fauci," he says of Anthony Fauci, ticking off a list of other things he says "(expletive)" to, including the mainstream media, CNN, TMZ, Twitter and Facebook.
