WATCH: Kid Rock Fires Back at Accusations He Was Lip-Syncing at All American Halftime Show, Slams Fake News – Jack Posobiec Brings Receipts
Kid Rock has released a new video addressing recent accusations that he lip-synced during a performance at Turning Point USA’s All-American Halftime Show.
The media and others had speculated that the musician was not actually singing during his rendition of the hit song “Bawitdaba” because the audio did not match up with what he appeared to be saying.
Kid Rock, alongside his DJ Freddie “Paradime” Beauregard, set the record straight in a video posted to X on Tuesday.
He explained that the performance was recorded live, and the apparent mismatch between his vocals and the visuals was due to an inexperienced production crew that struggled to properly sync the cameras to the audio.
“What’s up people? We’re here to address the fake news media, and all the trolls that are piling on, trying to say I was lip-syncing on the Turning Point USA halftime ‘Bawitdaba,’” he began. “They sent me a first cut, and my comment was, ‘The sync was off’ … It was very difficult for them because somebody wasn’t super familiar with the song.”
He continued, “Now it’s extremely difficult for them to line up the sync. It could have been done if we had more time. I’m confident they could have got it right. I only got to see one edit. I didn’t think it was the end of the world.”
The pair then launched into a quick performance of the song.
Kid Rock explained that he doesn’t fault TPUSA for the mess-up.
“I know these guys had a difficult time getting that sync together,” he explained. “I have nothing but good things to say, not only about Turning Point, but the production team that they work with on this and other events they’ve done. Top notch, first class all the way. Nobody’s perfect, [or] gets it right every time.”
Then he stuck up his middle finger “for the haters and the trolls out there.”

Jack Posobiec of Human Events and TPUSA jumped in and brought receipts to back up Kid Rock’s explanation.
“Perfect sync. No issues in person at all,” he wrote, along with video proof.

The alternate halftime show was so successful that TPUSA has confirmed it will do it again next year.
