According to Digital Spy,  Kid Rock has become inspired to experiment with a soul sound on his next album after listening to Amy Winehouse's music.

The singer, who has been a hit with his 'All Summer Long' track in recent months, revealed that he wants to continue distancing himself from the hip-hop genre.

Rock told the Daily Star: "The only thing I've been listening to lately is Amy Winehouse. She's got me back into all that 'old skool' soul thang. Her album is so great, it's made me go through all my old Stax and Motown records again. I'd really like to add a little of that flavour to my music."

He added: "Hip-hop's turned into bad pop music. People don't believe in half of the current rappers and especially don't believe in what they have to say. No-one's really a killer or a gangster. That's why I'm singing more."
