Album Notes
Personnel includes: Kid Rock (vocals, guitar, bass); Sheryl Crow (vocals, 12-string acoustic guitar, bass); Jimmie Bones (vocals, harmoncia, organ, keyboards); Snoop Dogg, Uncle Kracker, Misty Love, Shirley Hayden, (vocals); Jason Krause, Kenny Olson (guitar); Matt O'Brien (bass); Stefanie Eulinberg (drums).
Recorded at Clarkston Chophouse Studios, Detroit, Michigan.
Kid Rock's unique blend of Midwestern rock & roll, rap, and R&B gets another airing with COCKY, which features a plethora of road tunes, who's-the-baddest cuts, and straight-ahead drinking songs. The slow, greasy grooves of "You Never Met a Motherf**cker Quite Like Me" contrast violently with the Detroit Rock City raunch of "I'm a Dog," which itself stands in stark contrast to the first half of "Midnight Train to Memphis," an atypical, steel guitar-accompanied ballad.
You don't come to Kid Rock for subtlety (the last cut, WCSR, featuring Snoop Dogg, is proof of that). He's a Midwestern rapper who wishes he was in Lynyrd Skynrd--and who could probably make a pretty good job of it. The straight-ahead rock tunes swing mightily courtesy of drummer Stefanie Eulinberg, and Rock has his bad-ass rap act down cold here, though how much longer he can keep it up is another question for another time.

Editorial Reviews
...An enjoyably bad-ass record...
Mojo (02/01/2002)

...A similar blend of low-rider hip-hop and strip-mall heavy metal, flavoring its Camaro-ready jams with the occasional turntable wika-wika, Steven Tyler yowl or tasty guitar lick...you have to at least admire the breadth of his vision... - Rating: B
Entertainment Weekly (11/23/2001)

3 stars out of 5 - ...A massive banging victory....Rock self-conciously builds on his badass-hick-with-a-heart-of-gold image...
Rolling Stone (01/17/2002)

3 out of 5 stars - ...songs take rock and rop ethics and enthusiastically smash them together...

    I LOVE this CD,in fact it is my favorite. I have the unedited version and purchased the edited version for my son. The problem? Still a GREAT CD, but in my opinion,the lyrics are just still too harsh for children and young teens.You still definately know what the words are, even though they are left out or changed.My advice is to buy it if you can handle the unedited version, because it's not worth getting the unedited.Definatley not for kids.
