At the age of 15, young Kravitz moved out of his home and started practicing music together with friends. In 1982, he graduated from Beverly Hills high school, and they released their first demo which was very interesting for several record companies. However, the first studio album, “Let Love Rule” (1989), recorded together with bassist Henry Hirsch and saxophone player Karl Denson, was funded by Kravitz’s father. After this successful release, Virgin Records showed great interest, and signed Lenny to contract, and this collaboration continues up until now.

Lenny Kravitz Quotes

• My mom and dad would take me all over. One night we’d be at the Apollo watching James Brown, and then I’d be at the Joffrey Ballet. It was that kind of scene.
• [re Michael Fassbender dating daughter Zoë Kravitz] Well, the door rang, and there he was, and he said, ‘Good to meet you, sir,’ and I was like, ‘Sir? We ain’t that far apart.’
• [on his Christian faith] I really do use Christ as my example and try to live this life and not just bulls–t with it.
• [on why he likes acting] It’s not all about me. When I make music , it is all about me – I write it, I record it, I produce it. I’m involved in engineering and mixing. It’s a big me-fest. That’s fine, that’s how it works, but it’s nice to walk away from yourself and serve a director’s vision and a character – and it has nothing to do with you.
• [on his mother explaining his racial heritage – a Russian Jewish father, and a Bahamian mother] I remember her telling me, ‘I want you to know your heritage. You are no more one thing than another, but society will only see you as black’. I don’t even know if I understood what that really meant, but I think I somehow got it, and got it more a couple of years later – that people weren’t going to see both sides. As people used to say back in the day, and maybe still say today, one drop of black blood and you’re black. That’s it.
• I had no idea ‘The Hunger Games’ was so big. I didn’t even know the book. I had been living under my own rock.
• I want to do interiors, furniture. I want to do architecture, although I’m not an architect. Nor am I a trained interior designer.
• [on the wearing of fur] My great-grandmother was a Cherokee. With the Indians, it wasn’t slaughter. I have some vintage fur. I don’t buy new stuff.
