Gone is the rocker of yesteryear! In his place is a crooner that could get played on country radio with his very "Americana" new song.

Not bad. Inoffensive.

Check out the just-released video for Kid Rock's Born Free (above)!

Although Steven Tyler will be sitting at the American Idol judges table to the show's 10th season, Kid Rock doesn't think it's his best career decision.

Rock said:

"I think it’s the stupidest thing he’s ever done in his life. He’s a sacred American institution of rock ‘n’ roll, and he just threw it all out the window. Just stomped on it and set it on fire.

I think whoever’s advising him, we should bring back the guillotine, or whatever they call that thing. And if it was himself, he needs some serious counseling. I love him to death, but I gotta speak the truth.”

Wowsa! That's a little harsh.

“He’s just jealous,” said Tyler. “And he’s working a new record and God bless him."

Yikes!

Jon Stewart's Rally to Restore Sanity and Stephen Colbert's March to Keep Fear Alive drew almost 250,000 people to the National Mall in Washington D.C. on Saturday.

Appearing live on Comedy Central and on satellite broadcasts in 20 different cities, such as in Los Angeles, Chicago, Austin, and Boise, the three hour rally mostly consisted of satire and comedy with humorous sketches and surprise musical guests such as Kid Rock, Ozzy Osbourne, The Roots, Sheryl Crow, Tony Bennett, and Yusuf Islan, the former Cat Stevens.

However, it took a serious turn in the end when Jon Stewart made a speech saying these are "hard times, not end times."

He added:

"This was not a rally to ridicule people of faith or people of activism, or look down our noses at the heartland or passionate argument, or to suggest that times are not difficult and we have nothing to fear. They are and we do.

The image of Americans that is reflected back to us by our political and media process is false. [Americans hear] how fragile our country is, on the brink of catastrophe, torn by polarizing hate, and how it's a shame that we can't work together to get things done. The truth is, we do. We work together to get things done every damn day. The only place we don't is here or on cable TV."

Wow.

Did U go to the rally??

We were all surprised when Aerosmith's Steven Tyler decided to be a judge on American Idol…but no one was as tough on Steven as his pal Kid Rock!

Kid doesn't hold anything back, as he said, "I think it is the stupidest thing he's ever done in his life. He's a sacred American institution of rock and roll, and he just threw it all out the window — just stomped on it and set it on fire."

Jeez, that is a little harsh. He continued on to say that whoever advised him "we should bring back to the guillotine."

He finished the rant off by stating, "and if it was himself, he needs some serious counseling. I love him to death, but I gotta speak the truth."

LOL! Someone is angry!

What do U think of Steven Tyler being a judge on American Idol???

Hmmm.

Kid Rock appeared in court yesterday for the fight that broke out in a suburban Atlanta Waffle House back in 2007 and his lawyer claimed that Kid and his entourage were only trying to defend themselves from another customer.

He and five other people are being sued over the fight.

A man named Harlen Akins claims that they beat him up for no reason and is seeking unspecified punitive damages as well as $6,000 in medical fees.

Kid says Akins kept trying to provoke an argument and while video surveillance shows the fight, there is no sound to hear what was being said.

The trial is expected to end today or tomorrow.

5 on 1 sounds a bit suspicious to us, though!

What do U think?

Just when you thought he couldn’t get anymore white trash…

Kid Rock will appear in court to defend himself in a lawsuit filed after he and his entourage engaged in a fight in a Waffle House. Harlen Akins filed the lawsuit and claims that Kid Rock cursed at him and then had his entourage beat him up and smash his cell phone. Apparently, the fight started because Akins recognized a woman in Kid Rock’s party and spoke to her.

Kid Rock is scum. Hopefully after he serves some much-deserved jail time he will move to the Nevada desert, buy a used trailer, and leave all of us alone for the rest of our lives. And we'll all live happily ever after. The end!

Collaborate and listen! This is gonna be gooood!

Thoguh rapper T.I. has recorded almost 80 songs thus far for his upcoming album, King Uncaged, there is one track that will definitely make it on the disc: a collaboration with Lady GaGa.

FIERCE!

So what was it like for the rapper to work with the mega-star? AMAZING! T.I. explains:

"Phenomenal talent. Extremely proud [to work with her]. She's definitely that good. She knows what she's doing. She knows exactly what she wants people to think and say. She does everything that she needs to be done to ensure it happens. I think she's an entertainer, in all aspects of the word," Tip said of working with the Gaga. "She's a classic, all-around entertainer. A global star."

We can't wait to hear it! We bet it will be a hit!

Gagaloo isn't the only contributor on T.I.'s album. Eminem, Kid Rock and Keri Hilson all chip in on some tracks.

Good stuff! Good stuff!
