Every night is different, you never know what it's going to be like. I remember every night. I don't like to compare them.

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.

At first people thought I was really arrogant and a snob about music because I'm so intense about my production and sound, and because they knew I didn't like new music so much.

If I had to associate myself with one song, it would probably be Let Love Rule. It's so simple and to the point. It speaks for itself.

At 10 o'clock in the morning I'd go right in the studio. It feels good to be there in the morning before the day starts to mess with you - I don't mean in a negative way, but before I'd speak to a lot of people or get into anything, I'd go in there and just see what I felt. A lot happens in the morning for me in the studio.

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.
Lenny Kravitz
Image
It's a good time for me to pursue acting, I suppose since I'm enjoying having another medium in which to express myself. I've been getting a great response to my work.

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.

One musician listens to another musician, and you get inspired and then you do your thing, but it's yours.

I don't play the tuba.

This world is so crazy. So many things are based on popularity versus talent. So there's a lot of folks who are not so talented, but they're popular and they have x amount of followers on social media.

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.

Eleutheria, the fire is burning. Eleutheria, the tables are turning.

We have so many distractions. We're losing the family unit. We're losing the one-on-one. We're becoming extremely narcissistic. And we have to be careful about that. There's a lot to deal with out there.

There's definitely an old school element to my music, but I also think it's modern.

(On being asked if he preferred to be a rock god or sex god) I am neither. My favourite role is father.

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.
