The Army is investigating a video that appears to show an Apache attack helicopter flying low outside singer Kid Rock’s Nashville residence, a spokesperson confirmed.

Two videos, posted by Kid Rock to social media on Saturday, show the country rock artist applauding and saluting an Apache helicopter as it hovers close to his outdoor pool before flying off.

Maj. Montrell Russell, a spokesperson for the Army, said in a statement that the Army had begun an administrative review “to assess the mission and verify compliance with regulations and airspace requirements.” The Army will take “appropriate action” if it finds any violations took place, he said.

“The Army is aware of a video circulating online that appears to show AH‑64 Apache helicopters operating in the vicinity of a private residence in the Nashville area,” Russell said. “Army aviators must adhere to strict safety standards, professionalism, and established flight regulations.”

Kid Rock’s manager did not immediately respond to a request for comment about the video.

The artist, whose real name is Robert Ritchie, is a longtime supporter of President Donald Trump and has aligned himself closely with the MAGA movement in recent years. He performed at the 2024 Republican National Convention and at Turning Point USA’s “All-American Halftime Show,” an alternative performance to Puerto Rican artist Bad Bunny’s official NFL halftime show at the 2026 Super Bowl.

Kid Rock captioned his Saturday post on X: “This is a level of respect that shit for brains Governor of California will never know. God Bless America and all those who have made the ultimate sacrifice to defend her.”

Izzy Gardon, a spokesperson for California Gov. Gavin Newsom, responded to Kid Rock’s comments in a brief statement: “Waste, fraud, abuse!”

The two have clashed before, with Newsom writing on social media in February that he was “banning” the artist from California in response to an exercise video he appeared in with Health Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. earlier this year.

Kid Rock also flirted with a Senate run in 2017, launching a campaign website and fueling speculation that he intended to challenge former Sen. Debbie Stabenow (D-Mich.), but he later dismissed the stunt as a “joke.”
