I believe the answer is:

mod

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'rocker's enemy' is the definition.
The definition and answer can be both people as well as being singular nouns.
Perhaps you can see a link between them that I can't see?

'frenchman too much' is the wordplay.
'frenchman' becomes 'm' (abbreviation for Monsieur - like 'Mr').
'too much' becomes 'od' (abbreviation for overdose).
'm'+'od'='MOD'

'for' acts as a link.

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for mod that I've seen before include "Gaelic literary festival" , "Rocker's rival?" , "1960s teenager" , "Meeting of the Scottish" , "ministry" .)
