THE GAP: LENNY KRAVITZ & SARA JESSICA PARKER 90 SEC EDIT
Lenny Kravitz and Sara Jessica Parker mtv awards
Lenny Kravitz
Born in Brooklyn on May 26th 1964, to an interracial couple - father Sy Kravitz, a TV news producer, and mother Roxie Roker, actress who starred on the hit television comedy series The Jeffersons, Lenny Kravitz has transformed his style and music to fit his own genre.Lenny Kravitz is a fanatic, an obsessive student of all things classic rock, soul, funk, and psychedelic. He is the peace-and-love candidate for superstardom, the black hippie Jew with tattoos and dreads and an in-satiable jones for Jimi, Sly, and the Beatles. That is how Kravitz first emerged at the end of the ’80s, oblivious to hair metal and gangsta, embracing the feel-good soundtrack of his childhood with naïveté and feeling, not merely nostalgia for the Age of Aquarius. And he’s faced criticism ever since for appropriating only the finest sounds of the period and for dressing the part in epic rock-star threads, all bell-bottoms and feather boas. He is not groundbreaking. But his early albums at least sound in retrospect like a man tapping genuine emotion, using ancient pop styles as a setting for revealing messages on love and faith that rarely sound secondhand. As later recordings drift into a sound more identifiably his own, the result has mostly been slick, manufactured, and cold. The paradox of Lenny Kravitz is that his most derivative music is also his most personal.
