Kid Rock is a “real-time” host Bill Maher described as “Day blows up” on HBO's “real-time with Bill Maher” on Friday's Super Bowl 2025. I was surprised after a hot take of a halftime performance.
Maher asked the legendary rock and roll artist what he thought of Lamar's halftime performance and whether he agreed with others who complained that the performance was a day spectacle. You mentioned Day. People complained about it. ”
“If I put it well, it wasn't my tea, but I was able to respect it,” Kid Rock said. “And here's why. I grew up lovingly and emulate hip-hop, breakdance, deejay, graffiti and wrapping, so I understand most of the culture. And of course. When I say most, I mean white.”
He then explained how it relates to Lamar's performance, pointing out that he had opposed grain and created a career that didn't bother him what others were thinking about his art.
Kidlock performed at the 2004 Halftime Show with artists such as Janet Jackson.
“So look at it… after a lot of it's going through your head, you know, everyone is like, 'It sucks', this, and others. I do what he does for people who love to come out figically with fingers in both the air and love to love what he is doing. And I don't think he's giving frog fat** that everyone is thinking about it. So I'm going, “Hmm.” That's pretty much the same way I built my entire career. I have to respect that,” Kid Rock said.
The Rock and Roll Star then theorized how Lamar got the opportunity in the first place.
“I've heard no one answer this question. How did he get that gig? Jay-Z. What happened there? Jay-Z and Kendrick Lamar I think Colin Kaepernick should send lots of Bundt Cake and six packs of beer and a “thank you” note. The national anthem is self-intrusted, I don't think it will happen,” he insisted.

Before Maher gets a word on edgewise, Kid Rock faces the NFL after Lamar's choice to choose an all-black cast for his performance, propelling years of diversity They claimed it was an “epitome” “Day explodes.”
“It's like every black person or every person of color talking to his crowd, black people on the hood. It seems like the most exclusive thing ever, and I think “f ***Yeah, that's it It's amazing.” The rock artist said to Maher's shock.
Maher lost his words temporarily, groping for his words, laughing before changing topics.
