More quotes by Lenny Kravitz
My career has been a gradual climb. I think that's part of the reason why I've had longevity.
Lenny Kravitz
People don't realize it, but no one lives that rock and roll life 24-7. They think it's hundreds of bottles of champagne flowing and private jets and money. But there's a lot of time when you're traveling - time to think, time to be lonely. Sometimes it gets to you.
Lenny Kravitz
Are things getting better with each generation? Yes. It's quite interesting to be living in these times, for me to witness an African-American being elected president. It's quite extraordinary.
Lenny Kravitz
I'm half Jewish, I'm half black, I look in-between. I dress funny. I play all these different styles of music on one record. It's like, What is he doing?
Lenny Kravitz
My first guitar, a Fender Jazz Master, I traded it in for a Les Paul Deluxe.
Lenny Kravitz
I started out making furniture because I couldn't find certain things, and then I really got into it.
Lenny Kravitz
After listening to Machine Gun I have to take a nap.
Lenny Kravitz
You can't even sing or play an instrument, so you just scream instead. You're living for an image, so you got five hundred women in your bed.
Lenny Kravitz
Fly Away changed my life. There are certain songs that do. When I won the Grammy, I was in Paris. I sort of forgot about it.
Lenny Kravitz
People see my photos and think I labor over my image and I'm this cool, brooding artist. But I'm just having fun with it.
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
I honestly don't remember how I wrote or did the songs. Or the sessions. They all become very much a blur. And each album is like that. It may be that there are different locations, it may take longer, shorter, or whatever, but it's always something that just happened.
Lenny Kravitz
I always try to keep the circumstances in my life fresh. I like to change the physical environment I live in, change the people around me and try to experience things for the first time. I think that keeps one on their toes, creatively and spiritually.
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
I knew what I wanted to do from the time I was 5.
Lenny Kravitz
If you ask a hundred people, they all give you different answers.
Lenny Kravitz
I bought [John Lennon's] 'Plastic Ono Band,' and I listened to it over and over for months. It's a monumental work of genius.
Lenny Kravitz
I mean, look at the people we celebrate - a lot of people who really don't do anything. They just walk the red carpets and go to all the parties, and they're hooked up with the right people, so they're celebrities. But what for?
Lenny Kravitz
I feel like I'm only in the beginning of my career. I've only made five albums. It's not a lot.
Lenny Kravitz
I really didn't know a lot of rock 'n' roll until I moved to L.A. Before that, when I was in New York, I grew up listening mostly to R&B and soul and jazz.
