I wanted to make something that sounded very pure, organic, and personal. I wanted to make music that was timeless.

A dramatic thing, the first time you stand up to your dad.

For me a watch is a really beautiful instrument. I don't so much care what time it is but I do love watches, and I love how they're constructed.

Image
I've woken up from dreams and the whole song is there. I'm listening to it in my dreams. I consciously have to wake myself up and get a tape recorder because I hear it like a record.

Good design is being able to put a $100,000 thing next to a $20 thing. If it looks right and it works then it works. It doesn't have to be expensive it's all about the high meets low for me.

It's very important to vote. People died for this right.

I think kids in Europe have developed a deeper knowledge of music and of black music in particular. You go to Europe, and these kids know about all this obscure funk and soul that kids over here wouldn't know. I think it's getting better in the States, though, with the age of the Internet.

I am not trying to change the world. I am just offering my gift that God gave me, and if somebody is moved by it, that's beautiful.

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.

Image
If I were white, I'd get less criticism.

Image
So that's why you've got to try, you got to breath and have some fun. Though I'm not paid, I play this game, and I won't stop until I'm done. But what I really want to know is - Are you gonna go my way?
Lenny Kravitz

When I'm doing interiors - especially the ones where you really have full creative freedom - it's about creating an environment for people to feel so comfortable and at ease. I want them to become inspired to live and feel better.

Today, people are more into the glitz and the glamour of everything. We don't even read the inside of records anymore.
Lenny Kravitz
Image
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
Image
I've had to work very hard, and I don't really have a category or fit into any niche, so each time I come out with a new record, it's like, I'm a new guy.

Image
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
Image
I am still into the people I listened to growing up, so I completely remember what is like to be a fan, I haven't changed.
Lenny Kravitz
Image
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
Image
I don't like to approach people that much. There's been times when I wanted to say something to somebody, in a quick moment, but didn't. Then you think, man, who knows?
Lenny Kravitz

There are so many people that don't believe in themselves and don't have faith.
