I was gifted a rare opportunity to speak to the American singer-songwriter, record producer, multi-instrumentalist, and actor Lenny Kravitz on the eve of his 2000 Greatest Hits album release.

In the 10 minutes I was given, we spoke about how he successfully melded rock, blues, soul, funk, reggae, folk, and everything psychedelic in-between to become one of the biggest and most respected names in popular music. Enjoy.
