Amazon.com It's fitting that the Kid Rock revival got started when the Beastie Boys featured him in their Grand Royal magazine--and not because the kid from Detroit shares their skin tone. Rock has often been compared with the early Beasties--the boys of "Fight for Your Right to Party" and "Brass Monkey," the boys no one ever thought would grow up. With lines like "I ain't straight outta Compton, I'm straight out the trailer" and "I started an escort service--for all the right reasons," it's obvious that Kid Rock doesn't aim to follow suit. But that's no hindrance to Devil--backed by the funky metal band Twisted Brown Trucker and special guests like blues vets Robert Bradley and Thronetta Davis, Rock is hosting one hell of an interesting party. Ultimately, Rock's party is great, schlocky fun, equal parts old Beasties and Sebastian Bach--making Devil a guilty pleasure, the Starship Troopers of hip-hop. --Randy Silver

This CD saved rock music for me. September 29, 2000 23 out of 25 found this review helpful
I had almost completely given up on popular music (and especially MTV) by early 1999. Then I saw Kid Rock performing in front of the MTV studios early one morning. I was amazed at his versatility. The music rocked (which is something I hadn't seen on MTV since "Headbangers Ball" was canceled,) and he could play every instrument: drums, guitar, turntables, keyboards. I was so impressed, I went out and bought "Devil Without a Cause" the next day. I wasn't disappointed.Just about every single track on this CD is worth listening to. "Bawitdaba," "Cowboy," "Devil Without a Cause, "I Am The Bullgod," "Rovin' Gangster, "Somebody's Gotta Feel This," "F**k Off," and "Where U at, Rock" all hit hard. "Wasting Time" is my personal favorite, a laid-back Southern-Rock flavored groove. "Only God Knows Why" is a wonderful power-ballad, and "Black Chick, White Guy" actually shows surprising lyrical depth. The original version of "I Am The Bullgod" hidden at the end of "Black Chick, White Guy" is an enjoyable bonus. "Welcome 2 the Party" is passable, and "I Got One For Ya," is downright stupid, but I suppose no one can be perfect. This CD is well worth your $15. It saved rock music for me, and it might work for you, too.
A great CD, and let's get back to just reviewing the music November 16, 1999 58 out of 76 found this review helpful
I was a little leery about liking much of this CD when I bought it, since it's not my typical musical taste. I'm happy I did though, it's great. My teen years were in the 80's metal days, and that's my background taste. This combines a great rock sound with some rap with it which is a great combo. Can people stop judging other fans and Kid himself now. I grew up with that horrible as they called it music and ended up just fine. I have a wife at home raising my 2 kids and live in a very upscale neighborhood, and have a very well paying job that I worked hard for. Kid Rock is a musician which is for entertainment purposes only. Did ya ever think it's all an act and he's a great dad when he gets home? Yeah, it's possible. Raise yor kids right, and some music should not influence them that much at all (it never did to me). I'm not sure about most of you, but I listen to music for a good beat and a catchy tune (yeah to put it corny), not for some social and moral messages. If you like the music, by all means review it for others to know what you think since you have similar taste. If you have no interest in this kind of music, just move on then.

This cd is just awesome,if u love hip-hop,u love rock,this cd is for you.Now i must admit,the very first time i heard this cd,i thought it was trash,i never anything so stupid as this,but after i listened to it a couple more times, with an "open mind",i found this cd to be awesome,there's just no other word to describe it,and for all you people that are saying that kid rock wont be around in 2 years,i've got news for you,kid rock has already been around for MORE then 2 years,he's probably been around for 5 years,all u gotta do is "listen" to the cd.I can tell that a lot of work went into the making of this cd,kid rock is spitting some tight lyrics,and the trucker band is spitting some tight beats to back him up,rap&rock it's a hand and hand marriage,bottom line..................this cd rulez,gotta get it

I think this album is awesome because it shows his real roots and he does a great job expressing himself and he also has an awesome beat to all of his songs

My first Kid Rock CD and I'm hooked. Can't seem to turn it off. Each time through it gets better. Sounds much better in the car, he's a little angry at the ladies but don't take him too seriously he's only trying to make a buck. I'm sure if he keeps up like this he will make quite a few.
