Robert James Ritchie (born January 17, 1971 in Romeo, Michigan), better known as Kid Rock, is an American musician. After being cut loose by Jive Records in 1991 after his debut album, Grits Sandwiches For Breakfast, it would take him 8 years to reappear. In the spring of 1999, his 6th album Devil Without A Cause would explode behind the single "Bawitdaba", and would go on to sell 12 million copies. Kid Rock was able to keep the momentum after a slow start on 2001's Cocky, thanks in large part to the crossover country ballad "Picture", which featured Sheryl Crow. On October 9, 2007 Kid Rock released his 11th album Rock N Roll Jesus. The album became his first debuting number one album, helped by radio coverage of the single "So Hott". Kid Rock has sold 22.5 million albums to date.
