American singer, songwriter, record producer and guitarist, whose retro-style blend of rock, pop, funk and techno is inspired by such music icons as John Lennon and Jimi Hendrix, Lenny Kravitz has established a reputation for himself as a rock star with four Grammy Awards in his pocket.
Initially choosing the rock and roll genre, Kravitz’s music was strongly inspired by funk rocker Prince and he performed under the artist name “Romeo Blue.” After failing to land a recording contract, Kravitz decided to move to New York to pursue his career.
The same year, he received another Grammy for his cover version of 70s rockers The Guess Who's hit “American Woman.” The single originally came from the soundtrack of Austin Powers: The Spy Who Shagged Me and was added to the 5 album as a bonus track in 1999.

If his most daring '70s albums were a conscious separation from rock and roll, then EARTHLING, for all its jungle beats, ambient noises and industrial dynamics, is a kind of return, an attempt to incorporate all he's learned into the music he started with.
The beats, which combine live drumming with loops, have the fast, herky-jerky drive of the techno style known as drum-and-bass; the guitars are an explosive mix of live action and samples; there's an occasional dub-reggae synth line; and Bowie's voice doesn't always come clearly through the clanging music.
But it's rock nonetheless, with strong, melodic verse-chorus-verse songs like "Little Wonder" and "Dead Man Walking" that use these sounds the way Nirvana used metal and Madonna used house music--as slaves in the service of the gods of pop.
