Who is Lenny Kravitz?
Lenny Kravitz was named after his uncle, Leonard M. Kravitz, a private first class who was killed in action in the Korean War at the age of 20, while single-handedly holding off a Chinese attack, enabling most of his platoon to escape.
Lenny Kravitz released his debut album Let Love Rule in 1989, a combination of rock and funk with a 1960s vibe. Music critics were mixed: some felt Kravitz was a gifted new artist, others felt he was overpowered by his musical influences. The album was a moderate success in the United States, but became an instant hit outside of the US, especially in Europe.
Lisa Bonet directed the debut music video for the title track, “Let Love Rule.” Stephen Smith signed Kravitz with talent booking agency CAA, who soon were fielding offers for Kravitz, first on a club tour, and then in opening slots for Tom Petty & the Heartbreakers, Bob Dylan, and David Bowie.
Having played essentially all of the instruments on the album, Kravitz had to quickly assemble a touring band to support the Let Love Rule release. In May 2009, a 20th anniversary deluxe edition of Let Love Rulewas released worldwide by Virgin. Kravitz launched a LLR(20) tour of Europe and the United States in support of the re-release.
In May 1990, he performed the song “Cold Turkey” at the John Lennon Memorial concert. In 1990, Kravitz produced the song “Justify My Love” for Madonna, which he co-wrote with Ingrid Chavez.
The song, which appeared on her greatest hits album The Immaculate Collection and created controversy because of its explicit video, went to number 1 for two consecutive weeks. Kravitz appeared as a member of Peace Choir that performed “Give Peace a Chance” in 1991 in protest of the Gulf War.
Kravitz separated from Lisa Bonet in 1991, amid rumors of an affair between him and Madonna and that didn’t affect his career at all.
In 1993, Kravitz wrote “Line Up” for Aerosmith, and appeared on Mick Jagger’s solo album, Wandering Spirit, on a cover of the Bill Withers soul classic “Use Me,” and played guitar on the title track of David Bowie’s The Buddha of Suburbia. That year Kravitz also worked with idols Al Green and Curtis Mayfield. In 1993, Are You Gonna Go My Way was released, reaching number 12 on the Billboard 200 and Kravitz earned a BRIT Award for best international male artist in 1994.
