Kid Rock stayed true to his word when he released new music at midnight on Friday, July 14. The renowned rap-rock and country singer unveiled music videos for his latest songs, "Po-Dunk" and "Greatest Show on Earth." Fans eagerly anticipated this drop, as Kid Rock has long been known for his genre-blending style and powerful lyrics.
Among the two songs, "Po-Dunk" appears to cater more to the country music audience. This release coincides with Kid Rock's recent record deal with BMG/Broken Bow Records, which provides him the flexibility to target various radio stations or even choose not to pursue mainstream airplay. "Po-Dunk" is a four-and-a-half-minute homage to life in rural America, capturing the essence of country living that many fans can celebrate.
The music video for "Po-Dunk" contains some NSFW elements and features lyrics filled with colorful language that you might not share with your mother. The visuals include imagery of Bibles, guns, truck bed swimming pools, trailer parks, and mud holes, all of which paint a vivid picture of the lifestyle being celebrated. The song itself is a swampy, blues-infused country rocker with a catchy singalong chorus that has already been dubbed a redneck anthem.
In "Po-Dunk," Kid Rock sings: "That’s po-dunk / Don’t give a flying hillbilly f--k / I said po-dunk / Yard full of chickens and a barn full of drunks / Love us if you can / Sorry if you can’t / Hollar if you is / Shut up if you ain’t / Po-oh-oh-oh, po-dunk." This lyrics capture the spirit of the song and its appeal to the rural audience.

The second track, "Greatest Show on Earth," showcases a different side of Kid Rock. This song leans more towards rock than country, reflecting his unique ability to merge musical genres seamlessly. The accompanying music video is crafted from his live performances, allowing fans to experience his electrifying stage presence. As this new music hits the airwaves, discussions about Kid Rock's rumored run for the U.S. Senate continue to spark interest.
Despite the excitement surrounding his music, Kid Rock's political ambitions remain a topic of debate. His original confirmation that the Kid Rock for Senate website is real has led to mixed interpretations about his true intentions. A recent Instagram post revealed his passion for both politics and music marketing, leaving fans guessing about his next move.
At the end of the "Greatest Show on Earth" music video, Kid Rock announces his 2018 tour and provocatively asks, "Are you scared?" This phrase resonates with the language used on his Senate campaign website, blending his music career with potential political aspirations.
