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.

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
Image
Music definitely inspires my design all the time.
Lenny Kravitz
Image
I get a lot of joy from playing instruments, and I have a different personality on each instrument. I like to let that come out. I get kind of selfish.
Lenny Kravitz
Image
The thing I love about acting is that it's got nothing to do with me it's about bringing forth a director's vision. It's like a release. I'm glad it's come back into my life.

My first guitar, a Fender Jazz Master, I traded it in for a Les Paul Deluxe.

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
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
There's definitely an old school element to my music, but I also think it's modern.
Lenny Kravitz
Image
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 have a great time with my band and on the stage we get along well.
Lenny Kravitz
Image
You've got your entourage and people that help you make whatever happen around you. Everything's crazy and you're not paying attention to your inner feelings because you're so busy. I couldn't take it.
Lenny Kravitz
Image
It was amazing to me that, all of a sudden, I was hearing my music on the radio and coming out of cars.
Lenny Kravitz
Image
I'm sure at one point I will do some acting again, but it would have to be the right thing. I'm not going to do it just because people are offering it to me. Not for those box-office, bullshit, money, noncreative people. But I'll do it when it's right to do it.
Lenny Kravitz
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.
Lenny Kravitz
Image
When it comes to acting, it's about creating a character and bringing forth a director's vision. It's a weird feeling, because with acting, it's just not about me. I love being in that position, because with the music, it's always about me.

There are so many people that don't believe in themselves and don't have faith.
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
My career has been a gradual climb. I think that's part of the reason why I've had longevity.
Lenny Kravitz
Image
When I'm making my music, I'm writing it, I'm producing it, I'm playing all the instruments, I'm performing. It's my own world where I do what I feel, and nobody tells me anything.

I didn't really listen to rock 'n' roll until I moved to LA. We would ditch school, go get high, put on Zeppelin IV and just bug out.
