Though Kid Rock famously obliterated several six packs of Bud Light with an AR-15 last spring after the brand partnered with transgender influencer Dylan Mulvaney, the artist appears to have joined the woke mob, quietly forgiving the beer brand for daring to advertise to the LGBTQ+ community.

In an apparent 180 of his once tightly-held anti-trans values, Rock was spotted sipping from a blue can that appears to bear the words “Bud Light” while attending rapper Colt Ford’s concert in Nashville, Tennessee on Thursday evening.



Though the singer has yet to formally confirm whether he was, in fact, drinking the discount beer, fans were shocked nonetheless, admonishing the “All Summer Long” artist for going woke … especially over every midwestern frat boy’s beer of choice.



“Who can we trust these days,” asked @tedfredgreg of Rock, who famously screamed “Fuck Bud Light and Fuck Anheuser-Busch,” just a few short months ago.


“WHAAAAAAT?!? YOU MEAN TO TELL ME IT WAS PERFORMATIVE BULLSHIT???” exclaimed @BigOliveMan in an all-caps post. “I. AM. AGHAST.”


“This will hurt his brand more than if he were caught with a child because this is a surprise,” added @Ugarles.


Meanwhile, several others began giving the artist, whose real name is Robert James Ritchie, several suggestions for a more appropriate stage name considering his recent transgressions.


“My name is Liiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiib... Lib Cuck!!!!!,” joked @JLCauvin, @KaoticLeftist dubbing the artist “Kid Woke.”


But hey, regardless of what cheap, crappy beer the artist reaches for on his days off, one thing is certain — to paraphrase @jcsilver8457, we just want Kid Rock to be happy no matter who he loves.
