Kid Rock Encourages Stealing From Everybody in PSA
Rolling Stone : Rock and Roll Daily — Kid Rock has stepped up yesterday’s endorsement of stealing music with the above PSA. Yesterday, Rock told the BBC that not only should people steal songs but also “steal everything,” including gas. In today’s video, he cheekily says stealing from people is okay as long as they’re “fucking rich” — people like Steve Jobs, Tommy Hilfiger, the Toyota corporation and himself. Click above for the complete clip, including an awesome stinger where he lights a cigar and tells the kids to stay in school and keep off the drugs.

Kid Rock Wants You To Steal Everything
Stereogum — Kid Rock Wants You To Steal Everything There's all sorts of tenable positions on piracy.

Gone Hollywood — Kid Rock Gives Advice to Children Kid Rock doesn’t care if you illegally download his music. In an incredibly sarcastic YouTube message to the children, he also says it’s A.O.K. to steal from Apple, Microsoft, Toyota, the gas companies and even Tommy Hilfiger. Not the brightest idea in the world, planting those types of seeds.

Kid Rock Jokingly Urges Fans To 'Steal Everything'
Starpulse Entertainment News — Kid Rock DETROIT (AP) - Kid Rock wants fans to know it's OK to illegally download his music. And while they're at it, they should steal cars, designer clothes and iPods, too. Well, maybe not. The 37-year-old Detroit musician posted a "special announcement" on YouTube last week urging fans to "steal everything." Kid Rock says in the video that he's so rich, he can't complain if fans steal a song or two off the Internet without paying him. In fact, he says, people should "level the playing field" by stealing anything they need from wealthy corporations. He mentions laptops, iPods, Toyota vehicles ("It's a foreign car company, so who ...
