Kid Rock Sings ‘Give Your Life To Jesus’ During TPUSA’s Super Bowl Halftime Show

Lee Brice then took the stage and performed his song “Drinking Glass.” Between songs, Brice said, “Charlie, he gave people microphones so they could say what was on their mind. This is what’s on mind.” He then launched into “Country Nowadays” before finishing with “Hard to Love.”

Kid Rock Sings About Giving Your Life To Jesus

Kid Rock, whose real name is Robert Ritchie, shot up from beneath the center of the stage wearing jean shorts and a fur coat before bursting into the first verse of his 1999 rap-metal song “Bawitdaba.”

In the hours leading up to the show, Kid Rock’s 2001 song, “Cool, Daddy Cool,” made headlines due to the lyrics: “Young ladies, young ladies I like ’em underage—see. Some say that’s statutory, but I say it’s mandatory.” The song appeared on the soundtrack for the Warner Bros. animated film Osmosis Jones, in which Kid Rock voiced the character Kidney Rock.

Following Kid Rock’s “Bawitdaba” performance, husband-and-wife duo Antonio & Allison appeared at the end of the stage playing violin and cello. While it was not disclosed what song they performed, some viewers suggested it was a hymn.

In a video posted on Instagram following their performance, the couple said their appearance was inspired by the biblical account of David’s playing for King Saul.

“The Bible tells us that when David played his instrument for King Saul, that whatever was tormenting him just lifted up.” Antonio said.

Allison shared, “We are inspired by what he modeled to play a song that would release peace and torment would flee.”

“Man, if God did that for Saul when David played, that means that’s possible,” Antonio continued. “We’re just just so grateful for the opportunity to stand in such a special moment and play our instruments and do the best we know how to host the presence of God. Our prayer is really just that God would do it again, whatever God did in the life of Saul when David played. We just want to see that happening in the lives of people in this nation in the world.”

“We long to see anxiety break, depression leave, darkness be lifted up, peace coming, joy to be overflowing, and for people to encounter Jesus,” he added.

As the lights dimmed on Antonio & Allison, hosts announced that Robert Ritchie was returning, not Kid Rock.

Ritchie then performed his rendition of Cody Johnson’s “‘Til You Can’t,” which included a new verse he wrote.

“I awoke one Sunday morning all alone with this song stuck in my head,” Ritchie told the audience. “And in that moment, something or someone spoke to me. They said there was still a verse that needed to be written for this song and to get up and write it down.”
