More quotes by 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
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.
Lenny Kravitz
I want to do interiors, furniture. I want to do architecture, although I'm not an architect. Nor am I a trained interior designer.
Lenny Kravitz
It's interesting to be playing a father who's on the other side because that's not my world and not where I came from.
Lenny Kravitz
I mean, there are only so many notes. What makes something original is how you put it together.
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
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 found it a really refreshing change of pace to suddenly be completely directed. It was a type of collaboration that I don't normally have.
Lenny Kravitz
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
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.
Lenny Kravitz
I just need to know that I did the very best I could and that I was true to myself.
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
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.
Lenny Kravitz
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.
Lenny Kravitz
I was always talking about peace and love, even when I was a kid. That's how I grew up in my family.
Lenny Kravitz
If you listen to a lot of old funk records, the drums are really small. But you don't perceive it like that because the groove is so heavy.
Lenny Kravitz
Tape machines are effects boxes as well because each tape machine has its own sound. You can over-load a tape machine or you can bump it a certain way so it compresses or makes a sound, tape saturation.
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.
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
I come in with this rock 'n' roll-oriented music, and it's not black enough . . . I've always had to deal with this black-white thing.
Lenny Kravitz
