Kid RockKendrick Turned DEI On It’s Head for Super Bowl Halftime
Bill Maher has interesting guest fellows — case in point, Kid Rock, who called out Jay-Z and the NFL for a Halftime show for being pretty much exclusionary — of white entertainers.
Kid came out of the gate saying Kendrick Lamar wasn’t his cup of tea, but he has mad respect for him because he’s unapologetic about his craft. Kendrick doesn’t care if a swath of the country isn’t into him or even doesn’t like him … he does what he does, just like K.R. Kid Rock celebrated Kendrick, saying he doesn’t give a “frog’s fat ass” what people think.
And then, Kid R. zeroed in, saying this was a case of D.E.I. turned on its head … “It’s like all Black people or all people of color speaking to his crowd in the hood, Black people. It was like the most exclusive [exclusionary] thing ever and I’m like, ‘Fuck yeah, that’s awesome.’ I’m laughing my ass off.”
