Cocky, Kid Rock's fifth studio album, swaggered out on Lava and Atlantic on November 20, 2001, with the unenviable job of following Devil Without a Cause, the breakthrough that had sold 14 million copies and carried the Detroit hip-hop scene's loudest graduate into the mainstream. The title tells you he wasn't sweating it.
Like its predecessor, it throws hip-hop, country and rock into the same smoking barbecue pit: rap-rock bluster up front, Southern-rock boogie and blues-rock grit in the middle, and a soft spot for country that keeps tugging harder. "Forever" and "Lonely Road of Faith" carried it onto rock radio, but the real story is the drift, since the self-titled record that followed kept heading down the country-rock road. The RIAA certified Cocky 5x platinum in May 2011, and by the end of 2013 it had moved 5,344,000 copies in the US.
