Musician Kid Rock revealed during an appearance on Real Time with Bill Maher that he used artificial intelligence to create the backing choir for his track Heal My Faith, Consequence reported on 1 November 2026. The song features rapper Eminem and appears on Kid Rock's album Halfway 2 Jesus. Consequence noted that the musician stated the technology saved time during the production process. [1][5][6]

According to Consequence, television host Bill Maher challenged Kid Rock on the subject, noting that artificial intelligence can now produce a song that sounds almost indistinguishable from his work. Kid Rock expressed some hesitancy regarding the technology, stating that he does not know where artificial intelligence will lead. [1]

Kid Rock, whose real name is Robert James Ritchie, is an American musician and self-taught instrumentalist who has produced most of his own recorded material. Rapper Eminem, whose real name is Marshall Bruce Mathers III, is a record producer and executive from Detroit. As FTMQ Music reported earlier, Kid Rock released the album Halfway 2 Jesus on 17 October 2026, and Eminem defended his guest feature on Heal My Faith as an act of friendship despite their political differences.
