Cody Johnson recently spoke about a new version of his song ‘Til You Can’t’ after Kid Rock recorded and performed his own take. The country singer explained that Kid Rock reached out directly before moving forward, asking for approval to reinterpret the track.

Johnson said his first step was checking in with the song’s writers to make sure everyone felt comfortable with the idea. Once that was settled, he gave his support for the project to move ahead.

Kid Rock’s version includes a newly written verse that leans into themes of faith, adding a different tone to the original message. Johnson shared that hearing the updated version for the first time left a strong impression.

He described watching the performance as an emotional experience, noting that the song continues to connect in new ways beyond its original release. The moment he said, highlighted how music can evolve while still holding onto its core meaning.
