'I see my story as a suite of songs that have a magical connection.
I never understood that connection until I sat down to write. It
was then that the magic started to flow.' Let Love Rule is a work
of deep reflection. Lenny Kravitz looks back at his life with
candor, self-scrutiny, and humour. 'My life is all about
opposites,' he writes. 'Black and white. Jewish and Christian. The
Jackson 5 and Led Zeppelin. I accepted my Gemini soul. I owned it.
I adored it. Yins and yangs mingled in various parts of my heart
and mind, giving me balance and fueling my curiosity and comfort.'
Let Love Rule covers a vast canvas stretching from Manhattan's
Upper East Side, Brooklyn's Bedford-Stuyvesant, Los Angeles's
Baldwin Hills, Beverly Hills, and finally to France, England and
Germany. It's the story of a wildly creative kid who, despite tough
struggles at school and extreme tension at home, finds salvation in
music. We see him grow as a musician and ultimately a master
songwriter, producer, and performer. We also see Lenny's spiritual
growth-and the powerful way in which spirit informs his music. The
cast of characters surrounding Lenny is extraordinary: his father,
Sy, a high-powered news executive; his mother, Roxie Roker, a
television star; and Lisa Bonet, the young actress who becomes his
muse. The central character, of course, is Lenny, who, despite his
great aspirational energy, turns down record deal after record deal
until he finds his true voice.The creation of that voice, the same
voice that is able to declare 'Let Love Rule' to an international
audience, is the very heart of this story. 'Whether recording,
performing, or writing a book,' says Lenny, 'my art is about
listening to the inspiration inside and then sharing it with
people. Art must bring the world closer together.'
