Kid Rock's MAGA music festival in chaos as two more performers drop out

[DemocratSinceBirth]

Kid Rock's MAGA music festival has seen two more performers drop out following backlash over their involvement in the production.

The 55-year-old musician, whose real name is Robert James Ritchie, announced the lineup of his festival, Rock the Country, in mid-January.

The event, which has been dubbed the "MAGA Music Fest", kicks off on May 1 and runs through September 2026. It comes as music acts opened up about the backlash they are facing since signing up for Kid Rock's music festival.

1. Ha!-TickTock, you horse's ass.

[FakeNoose]

2. What an idiot! Try renaming it and see what happens

Nobody's buying tickets to anything called "MAGA." How about calling it the "ICE" music festival?

[3Hotdogs]

5. Great idea. Promo: Come and be with your fellow Iceholes.

[Totally Tunsie]

11. Is he trying to compete with "Melania" for least tickets sold?

[paleotn]

3. Robert James Ritchie is a musician? OK.

[ProfessorGAC]

21. A Rip-Off Artist? Yes

Musician? No
He is a professional self-promoter that achieved well beyond his reach.
He thinks he's important. And, given his sole priority has always been self-promotion, I'm not sure he's really even MAGA.
Just a role he adopted to revive his flagging career?

4. What, the Kennedy Center isn't a venue?

I mean, it has Trump’s name on it so it’s an obvious MAGA Fest stop.

[mdbl]

7. I thought that was Kid Rock's new home venue now.

No one else wants to go there.

[ChicagoTeamster]

10. Yeah, Kid Rock, Ted Nugent, Nicky Minaj, Pat Boone, Jason Aldine, all headlining at the Kennedy Center

[mdbl]

12. Oh boy, a dream team of maga morons.

No thanks.

[Captain Zero]

18. Pat. Boone's still alive?

Who knew

[ChicagoTeamster]

19. Yep, He's 92 years old.

[JohnnyRingo]

6. Did the idiot think a partisan festival would go over big?

On either side really. "Liberal Fest 2026" would likely flop as well since many country fans would want to be seen there. The organizers could claim it was for "everybody", but it would still be pretty exclusive.

That ass had to put MAGA in there.

[Seinan Sensei]

8. Two more performers dropped out!

Might I suggest filling those now-empty blocks of time with a screening of “Melania”?

[ChazInAz]

9. Will ICE provide security?

That would be about as entertaining as Altamont.

[miyazaki]

13. He even had two? F*ck that hack. nt

[progressoid]

14. There are dozens of performers. None that I'd even want to see for free.

Let alone pay to see.

[miyazaki]

22. That's for sure. I wouldn't walk across the street to see

any of them if it was free.

-With my luck I would get hit by a car anyway.

15. MAGA Fest Ticket Sales Sink Like a Rock

[Cha]

16. STFU about "patriots" kid Nazi... Traitor

is Putin's Puppet and Killing American citizens and America... you Gaslit Pile of Shit. .

Your fucking Propaganda ain't gonna WORK

Ludicrous' name disappear from there.. said it was a "Mix up"...

in reference to Ludicrous..

Another posted, "We about to put you over there with Kanye and Snoop ... stop playing. Why'd you sign up for this?

Now, Rolling Stone has reported that Morgan Wade and Carter Faith have also dropped out of the music festival.

According to the outlet, Morgan's name disappeared from the tour poster on Friday, with her management confirming to Billboard that the Wilder Days singer will not perform at the event.

Carter also appeared to confirm she had dropped out, as she responded a fan asking why she was on the lineup, saying, "I'm not anymore!"

20. Very disappointed that Jellyroll is still performing there. He seemed like such a good/genuine guy on American Idol. Nt
