Lenny Kravitz looks back to when he found his voice

Lenny Kravitz is a man of extremes— as he admits. “I am deeply two-sided: black and white, Jewish and Christian, Manhattan and Brooklynite,” he writes about his first 25 years alive in his new memoir “Let Love Rule,” released last week and named after his 1989 debut album.

“The book is about me finding my voice and finding my path and walking intomy destiny, whatever that is,” he tells The Associated Press. The book explores his childhood and ends with Kravitz on the verge of stardom and deeply in love with actress Lisa Bonet.
