Info (help·info)

"Bawitdaba" was a song written by Kid Rock and Twisted Brown Trucker and released for Kid Rock on his album Devil Without a Cause.

It was nominated for two Grammy Awards in 2000. The song peaked at No. 10 on the Mainstream Rock Tracks and No. 11 on the Modern Rock Charts. The song's chorus sampled Sugar Hill Gang's "Rapper's Delight", although they are never credited, and the title for the song comes from Lovebug Starski's song "Live at the Fever." Kenny Tudrick did the guitar work on the song and was going to sue for his royalties before Kid Rock asked him to join the band after Kenny Olson quit in 2006.
