Kid Rock's Surprising Collaboration: Cody Johnson's 'Til You Can't Story
Cody Johnson recently shared the story of how Kid Rock approached him to record a version of his song, "'Til You Can't." Kid Rock's rendition of the song included an additional verse that was inspired by a conversation he had with Johnson. The idea came about after Kid Rock performed the song at the Hondo Rodeo Fest in Arizona, where he was filling in for Johnson, who had to undergo surgery for a burst eardrum. Johnson was pleasantly surprised when he found out that Kid Rock had covered his song and was excited when he learned that Kid Rock wanted his blessing to release the new version. After a conversation with Kid Rock, Johnson was fully on board with the idea, especially when Kid Rock explained his reasoning for adding the new verse, which focused on the importance of faith and forgiveness. Johnson was moved when he saw Kid Rock perform the song during the Turning Point USA Halftime Show, which aired during the Super Bowl halftime show. Despite jokingly wishing Kid Rock had worn a Cody Johnson hat during the performance, Johnson was thrilled to see his song reach a wider audience through Kid Rock's rendition.
