It sounds like KID ROCK wants to be taken a little more seriously on his upcoming album, “Born Free”, which he says is about the crapification of his hometown.

–He says, quote, “The catalyst for this record was Detroit, and my thoughts on the world through the lens of Detroit.  Watching everything go downhill over the past few years, the economy, the loss of jobs everywhere . . .

–”I wanted to make a record that reflected the times but that still had soul.”

–A press release for the album says that it’ll be, quote, “transformational.”  It insists that Kid will still be his edgy self, but that he’s not doing the “rap-metal” thing on this disc.  In fact, it even notes, quote:  “There isn’t even a parental warning sticker.”

“Born Free” features collaborations with Bob Seger, T.I., Sheryl Crow . . . plus country stars Martina McBride, Zac Brown and Trace Adkins.

–And the guest musicians include Tom Petty and the Heartbreakers keyboardist Benmont Tench, Red Hot Chili Peppers drummer Chad Smith, Los Lobos guitarist and singer David Hidalgo, and Chavez guitarist Matt Sweeney.

“Born Free” is scheduled to hit stores on November 16th.
