Editorial Review:

Amazon.com:
Detroit-bred rocker/rapper Kid Rock has reason to be "cocky," as 1998's multiplatinum Devil Without a Cause established the multifaceted artist with the Southern rock influences as a generally likable braggart able to back up his boasts musically. Rock's Twisted Brown Trucker backup band also spawned a successful solo career for DJ Uncle Kracker, who wrote songs for--but whose turntables aren't on--Cocky. With a little help from fab friends, including actor David Spade, and musicians Sheryl Crow and Snoop Dogg, Cocky covers a mélange of styles, from rap to country, utilizing organ, pedal steel, and harp as well as metallic guitar solos. Ultimately, though, the 14 songs are schizophrenic and not always successful: on "Lonely Road of Faith," Kid Rock turns in a anthemic ballad nearly worthy of Lynyrd Skynrd, whose "Freebird" he samples in the laid-back R&B-flavored "You Never Met a Motherf**ker Quite Like Me," while Crow's vocals on the gentle, country tune "Picture" and the plodding "Midnight Train to Memphis" contrast with the metallic riffs of "I'm a Dog," the nasty "sex rhymes" of "WCSR," and the rapped boasts of the narcissistic title track. Cocky? Indeed. Commendable? Dubious. --Katherine Turman

Rating: - Great music for the small of brain
Kid Rock is what's wrong with music today. He has no musical talent whatsoever. NONE!!! What's wrong with YOU PEOPLE? Loser junk

Rating: - His best work!
Cocky has got to be Kid Rock's best work; rocking guitars, rocking music, very upbeat and full of energy! I listened to this when it first came out and I'm still listening to it today! Awesome!

Rating: - Not like Devil without a cause
This CD isn't bad, but it really isn't good. I love the first song, Trucker Anthem, and Uncle Kracker started the CD off right, followed by a couple great Kid Rock Verses. After that it is all down hill. Songs 2-4 are good, and I for some reason really like what I learned out on the road, but other than those songs, I don't like any other ones except WSCR with Snoop Dogg.
