Kid Rock is the soundtrack to American cultural decline

It's time we finally admitted it: Kid Rock is the greatest prophet of our generation. Just over 35 years ago, in his 1990 single "Pimp of the Nation", a young Bob Ritchie (the musician's real name) peered into his crystal ball: "One day I'll probably walk with a limp/ And drive a big Lincoln/ Wearing an unbuttoned shirt/ And be a 55-year-old pervert/ But for now rap's the occupation/ But watch one day I'll be Pimp Of The Nation."
