Kid Rock Encourages Stealing From Everybody in PSA

June 19, 2008 11:20 AM ET

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.

“I'm Yours”

Jason Mraz | 2008

Jason Mraz re-emerged after his disappointing second album with this lead single, a Jack Johnson-esque ditty about giving yourself fully to someone else. The success of the reggae-tinged song (it earned two Grammy nods and a spot on the Billboard singles chart for well over a year) was something the folk-pop singer never predicted when he wrote it in 15 minutes at home. "I played a happy-hippie chord progression that would probably work without 50 different Bob Marley songs," he told Rolling Stone. "I thought, 'It's too novelty. This is a nursery rhyme,'" concluding that "you can never guess what's gonna be a hit."
