They couldn’t be more far apart when it comes to politics, but in a time of intense political division, Kid Rock and Eminem have found common ground, thanks to the Detroit Lions. The Detroit music icons have been having friendly exchanges with each other ...

Both Kid Rock and Eminem grew up near Detroit, and both cut their teeth rapping in local clubs. Kid Rock — who is one year older — had the edge at first. The owner of a local record store called Record Time remembers hosting an album release party for the Grits Sandwiches for Breakfast album and Eminem showed up, challenging Kid Rock to a battle.

Kid Rock, the country-rock star from metro Detroit, has become just as well-known for his music as his political opinions, and he's back with another hot take about the upcoming election.

Both rappers are from Michigan, which is one of the seven key battleground states in this closely contested election.

Kid Rock has a message for Eminem, and for Taylor Swift. He doesn't agree with their political affiliations, but he's happy they're using their platforms to speak out. Kid Rock took to his social media channels on Friday to address some of his across-the-aisle counterparts in the music business.

Eminem and Kid Rock fans have praised them for putting politics aside and 'agreeing to disagree' without 'hatred.'
