* WhatCouldHaveBeen: Kid Rock's fifth major record label album was originally titled ''Kid Rock's American Circus'' and would have consisted of three discs: one disc devoted to CountryMusic, one disc devoted to Rock, and one disc devoted to Hip Hop. The album also would have featured several guest musicians such as James Hetfield from Music/{{Metallica}}. Ultimately the idea was scrapped because Kid Rock felt that making a three-disc album would have been "too pretentious." He again planned to release this exact triple album configuration before the COVID-19 pandemic, and because he would be unable to tour to support an album with three discs during a pandemic, he scrapped most of the material and pared it down for ''Bad Reputation'', which ended up being the worst-reviewed album of his entire career, and possibly lacked cohesion from so many songs being removed.
