Slicing and dicing for his hometown chum salmon, the mainstream pat heron Kid Rock, Uncle Kracker (born Matt Shafer) stepped out from slow the turntables to spill his debut solo album, Double Wide, on Kid Rock's own Top Dog/Atlantic/Lava tag. Yet some other Detroit combination of low-down post-grunge rock and hip-hop esthetic, Uncle Kracker makes his predecessor lofty.


Child Rock and Uncle Kracker are practically phratry. The deuce met in Clawson, MI, in 1987, where Rock was spinning in an all-ages DJ contest at a pop night maculation called Daytona's. The deuce had similar melodic tastes (The Commodores, Run D.M.C., Lynyrd Skynyrd, and George Jones) and became fast friends. Kracker's first gear musical contribution was on Rock's 1991 debut, Hominy grits Sandwiches for Breakfast, and he as well co-wrote and performed on Rock's multi-platinum Heller Without A Cause. It was just a matter of time for Kracker to do his have thing.


It's neither surprising that the media has labelled Double Wide as more wireless friendly than Devil Without A Cause, nor that Rock and his ring, Twisted Brown Trucker, fall together to bang things up on Double Wide. Like his pal, Uncle Kracker cherished a vexing rural area growling woven into mainstream modern rock to make a mindblowing rap junket; Dual Wide was just that, released in summer 2000. "Follow Me" was a popular single among receiving set and MTV's TRL. Two days later on, Uncle Kracker returned with No Stranger to Shame. It yielded graph hits such as "In a Little While" and "Drift Away." Uncle Kracker haggard no time making a follow up phonograph recording. Taking much from the inspiration of early-'70s rock'n'roll, Uncle Kracker issued Seventy Two & Sunny in late June 2004.
