More quotes by Lenny Kravitz
The story that I wanna tell is pretty much about the way I grew up. Being bi-racial, growing up in a big city and being an artist.
Lenny Kravitz
It doesn't take a lot to get me motivated. I'm a studio rat. When I was in high school and I would walk into a recording studio, it felt like this magical place, this temple, this womb that I could escape into.
Lenny Kravitz
The loyalty rate isn't that high. I could have a big hit, then put out the next single, and they say, Oh yeah, who are you? Prove it again.
Lenny Kravitz
We've always just gotten up there and played. We don't have any dancers, we don't have all that stuff going on, we just get up there and play.
Lenny Kravitz
I've been compared to hundreds of artists, which just goes to show you that I'm not any one thing at all.
Lenny Kravitz
God is love and if you are ready, he always is.
Lenny Kravitz
I wouldn't play together with someone who likes to control everything like me.
Lenny Kravitz
None of those material possessions do anything to make your life any better.... I know a lot of people who have a lot of everything, and they're absolutely the most miserable people in the world. So it won't do anything for you unless you're a happy person and can have peace with yourself.
Lenny Kravitz
Nine out of ten groups that came out in '89 are gone. I'm still here.
Lenny Kravitz
There are so many people that don't believe in themselves and don't have faith.
Lenny Kravitz
If I were white, I'd get less criticism.
Lenny Kravitz
If you heard my records and no one told you, I don't think you'd know whether it's a band or one guy.
Lenny Kravitz
If you ask a hundred people, they all give you different answers.
Lenny Kravitz
I've always been into films. I've been offered lots of films but they've always been these very stereotypical roles. They wanted me to play some gangster or street guy, or pimp, drug addict.
Lenny Kravitz
The image that the public gets is whatever they perceive it to be. Everybody has an opinion, everybody has their own vision, so I don't know what my public image is. I have no idea.
Lenny Kravitz
Music, for me, is completely self-indulgent. I write it, I play the instruments, I arrange it, I produce it. It's all about me - as it should be.
Lenny Kravitz
One day we're going to watch people fight to the death, like Roman times. Instead of being in a coliseum, we're going to watch it on TV.
Lenny Kravitz
I've always had to deal with being biracial, even in music. When I came on the scene, I'd go to these record labels, and they'd say things like, Lenny Kravitz. That's a weird name. I'm brown-skinned and I've got these dreadlocks and I've got this Jewish last name.
Lenny Kravitz
I fell in love with Paris the first time I went.
Lenny Kravitz
I just need to know that I did the very best I could and that I was true to myself.
Lenny Kravitz
