Quote

Mothers love you to the end, and she didn't want to hold me back from my livelihood. So I left for a month and called her every couple of days. I came home and she died 24 hours later.

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

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.

You need to open up so that more comes through. And you can just feel that when your ego is not in the way and when you're letting it be what it wants to be. You have to let it be what it wants to be as opposed to what you think it should be.

I'm very much about the environment, I'm very much about health, about being able to, at the very least, eat organic, whole foods that are healthy for us. And then, of course, everyone being able to eat and at least have a humane way to live. There's enough for everybody, but unfortunately, there's a lot of greed and a lot of ego.

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.

The loyalty rate isn't that high. I could have a big hit, then put out the next single, and they say, Oh yeah, who are you? Prove it again.

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.

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.

The image is an image.

I'm just looking for interesting roles and giving acting the respect it deserves.

I want to get away, I want to fly away. Yeah, yeah, yeah.

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.

I was always talking about peace and love, even when I was a kid. That's how I grew up in my family.
