Since Bad Boy Kid Rock burst onto the scene at the end of the ‘90s with his rap-rock blockbuster "Devil Without a Cause," he’s been a born entertainer: keeping the tabloids busy. He was sentenced to a year’s probation and had to pay a fine for an altercation at a Georgia Waffle House last year that reportedly involved Rock, members of his entourage and a male customer. But while Rock is back in the limelight because of legal issues, it’s overshadowing a bit the fact that "Rock N Roll Jesus," his strong 2007 album, remains firmly entrenched in the Top 10 of the Billboard 200 album chart on the strength of “All Summer Long” – not bad for a 9-month-old album.
