That's Cindy Blackman, Santana's wife, on drums. And for sure, swagger is a huge part of being a rock star. It's part of the irreverence that started the whole genre. Just standing there doesn't convey that idea.
Johnny Greenwood begs to differ.
She went to my high school
Thank you, S McPherson! 😃 I heard there was something about the drummer.... I never googled it or anything lol, I should have cuz I had questions lol. Thank you for the answer! 😃
she didn't play the studio version that's playing on this video though
Diddnt know that. She rocks hard. But it's Kravitz playing the drums on the track. Gonna keep my eyes out for Cindy. 🤘
Lenny’s mother, Roxy Roker, was on the Jeffersons. His father was a music executive.
Lennys father was a producer on the Jeffersons, his name appears in the credits... Sy Kravitz
Funny fact They asked Roxy if she would have a problem being portrayed in a interracial marriage on the Jefferson... she came back with In a Marriage with White Jew in real life .....Lenny's Mother was a Legend
Roxy Roxer was so chic, the charisma has to be in the blood.
Yep
He's WELL represented on my Spotify playlist because of his decades of ROCK and he's a smart, introspective artist!
Dude's as cool as it get! 🤘👍
COOL AS THE OTHER SIDE OF THE PILLOW!🥶
If you didn't know Lenny was the embodiment of a rock star before, you definitely gonna know after watching this video! The first song I ever herd bye him was "let love rule". I was instantly a fan and I have been ever since.
@SomeOldAtheist 67 Same here! I first discovered Lenny on his first national tour as an opening act for The Cult - it was 1990-ish, best I can remember and it was a half-house show at the old Omni Arena in Atlanta, GA. I have seen him several times since!
I love the kids in the video. It's 1993, and they're dancing out of the old 80s with such joy. (And wearing better clothes while they're at it.) The early 90s was a much-needed, long-overdue correction from the silliness that had accreted like so many crusty barnacles. The grunge movement, hip-hop growing up, female singer-songwriters on the charts, and back-to-basic rockers like Kravitz. A glorious little period.
The year I graduated high school and went off to college. Really glad to be Gen X. ❤️
@@ashleydixon4613 Me too!
*70s. This entire album is packed full of 1970s flavor. In fact, the label on the CD even says copyright 1973 instead of 1993. It was made to look like a tiny little record from the old days.
Im a GenX too. High school and college years. I remember all of that. 😆 great music genres in the 90s. All of it. Rock, rap, pop, R&B, punk, alt rock, everything. things were fresh and booming.
IMO, Lenny didn’t get enough recognition for how talented he is musically. A few of my favorites; I BELONG TO YOU, IF YOU CAN’T SAY NO, TELL ME MAMA. Lenny’s mother was an actress on The Jefferson’s. Her character was the wife of an inter-racial couple ( George and Weasie’s neighbors). Ironically in her real life she was married to her white Jewish lawyer so hence… Lenny Kravitz was born. He plays multiple instruments as well as sings and is known for his fusion of rock and funk. When he married Lisa Bonet from the Cosby show he was arguably at the height of his career. Lenny was extremely close with his mother and when she passed away he wrote TELL ME MAMA. A beautiful but heart wrenching song in her honor. Thank you for reacting to Lenny, guys!
Lenny is just as freaking cool today as he was 30 years ago. Possibly even more so, because it’s just a more mature cool.
Lenny has a ton of great songs. “It Ain’t Over Til It’s Over”, “Mama said” (with Slash on guitar) “Let Love Rule” and “Is There Any Love In Your Heart.” He does a great cover of Led Zeppelin’s “Whole Lotta Love.” You should check them out for future songs.
@@leodejongful Not named that on his hits album and the Waterboy just so happens to be one of the best movies of our generation!
@@leodejongful Not IMO Always on the Run is a "song" from Mama Said, The OP says specifically the song "Mama Said" so...priorities may be better served in facts, not opinions. I prefer facts.
"I was born, long ago" . . . every day that line becomes more and more true for all of us. His daughter, Zoey Kravitz, is 33 years old. Lenny was definitely born long ago. Great song. Great video.
Zoey was in a punk band a few years back. Elevator Fight.
Lenny Kravitz reminds me of a modern-day Jimi Hendrix. The way he sings, phrases things, and talks softly and deeply during the song reminds me so much of the GREAT GOAT Jimi Hendrix!
Lenny always had his own sound and his own style, even back in the 80’s when he went by Romeo Blue (check out Let Love Rule). He is still the epitome of cool and sexy as ever.
Yes, Lenny still tours and he still looks and sounds the same. His mom was an actress on The Jeffersons" and he married "The Cosby Show" actress Lisa Bonet. They are the parents of actress Zoe Kravitz. My favorite Lenny Kravitz song is "Fly Away" Definitely check that one out and also "American Woman."
Lenny spends most of his time living comfortably in his compound in the Bahamas with his family, but owns several houses all over the world including Miami, New Orleans, Los Angeles, London and Paris.
Livin the life!
I’ve seen Lenny many times and his band and shows are unbelievable. This man does soul funk and rock like no other. If your looking for a great song check out Sister it is hauntingly beautiful with a huge shot of Craig Ross on lead guitar probably one of the most underrated players out there! Nothing but respect to his recordings but his live shows are awesome!
I love to see rock and roll female drummers!
That guitar riff will live forever! 🤘
Lenny Kravitz and H.E.R. at the Grammys was so dope.
This riff man, it has always made my spine tingle. That's how you know!
Kravitz was amazing, and this video is one of my favs, so well choreographed and filmed. Back in the day, on tv and radio, this song was on constant play. Huge hit but Lenny had many.
Lenny is living that paradise life, tending to his gardens, and ranch. He still makes music, with excellent, relevant lyrics, and pours his soul out, to all of Humanity, calling us back to sanity. Legendary Star!
Plus, no one informed him, that aging is a thing.
Love everything about Lenny, fantastic music, great hair, absolutely gorgeous guy, scrummy! ♥️
Lenny Kravitz is one that you should definitely see live. Saw him for the first time a few years ago. Outside, pouring rain the entire time, with mud up to my ankles by the end of the show. Took me weeks to clean off all the mud that made its way into my vehicle. 🤣 Worth every bit of it!
Lenny is awesome!!! Yes he is the son of Actress Roxie Roker from the Jeffersons. She unfortunately passed from breast cancer. His father is from Russian Jewish heritage.
Rock and Roll🤘,..when they first played this on MTV,..back then,.ohh man,..just rocked me out,..and like you said had that funk,..at first,..AT FIRST,..so reminded me of the Jimi Hendrix Experience,..truly,....like when Jimi first came on the scene,..and the guitar play,..just hooks you,..could tell it hooked you as well,..he does some gorgeous ballads to,.."I Belong To You",..just love that one, so exquisite,..keep going young people, Godspeed, Peace ✌
If you go to the beginnig of his career with his first album , he started off very acoustic based. With each album afterward he got a little heavier each time. And it's no secret Lenny's a huge fan of 70's rock. He purchased & uses a lot of older analog mixing boards to help get that classic sound.
Dude is my favorite male artist ALL time... he blends soul and rock perfectly... Awesome!
Great musician,great actor. He's got it all!
In the early 1980's via MTV and VH1, there was an interview with Lenny Kravitz. He was asked who influenced his play the most in developing his own style.
He said that three men played a big part.
Jimmy Hendrix, Eric Clapton and the use of harmonics of Eddie Van Halen
The rest is history so enjoy
Oh, hell to the yes! Lenny puts on a phenomenal show as well! Thank you!
Cindy Blackman banging that drum kit makes the whole song.
Didnt Lenny play The drums on this one?
Lenny makes rock and roll groovy!✌️😊💜
Oh man, Lenny Kravitz is the bomb. I’ve loved him from day one.
Always in the Run by Lenny Kravitz and Slash!!! So awesome!
The Disco Drummer is my spirit guide
Asia! Lenny is Smokin Hot! You can say it. Check out American Woman
She didn't have to it was all over her face.
I’ve seen him live 3 times and he is one of the best performers I’ve seen and I’ve seen a lot of shows! Interacts with the crowd like very few can!
Wife here..Wow..!!..Lenny Kravitz.., Rocks!!..I remember when he hit the scene ...,I knew he was gonna be a MEGA Rock Star..Soooo talented..!!..Asia..,your rocking dances are TOO CUTE!!
This was like 25 years ago and I swear Lenny Kravitz is sexier now than he was then. He just doesn't age. Fly Away is one of my favorites.
I remember when this song came out on radio and I was like this guy can rock! Then I saw the video! Wow visually stunning and very cool! He brings music fashion and diversity to his music! And I never knew who his mom was! 💪🌻❤️👌
Ultimate swagger!! Carlos Santana's wife is on the drums!! Lenny's mother was a black actress, and his father was a white jewish TV producer...look at that beautiful human they made!!💜 If you've ever watched the old sitcom "The Jeffersons", Roxie Roker, Lenny's mother was on there as the neighbor who was married to a nerdy white man!😆🎶🎸🎵
Hell yeah Lenny Kravitz is amazing! Check out his chill sexy af track "I Belong To You"
I saw Lenny K in concert. He was awesome.
It makes sense that Lenny and Prince were good friends cuz they were both badass black ROCKSTARS and had a god given gift (and too much swag)!!
One of the loudest outdoor concerts I've been to!
On the drums is Cindy Blackman. She's played with many great rock bands & artists across the board. Her main genre is Jazz. Cindy is married to Carlos Santana. Lenny's mother was actress Roxie Roker (passed away 1995) she was famous for playing Sherman Hemsley's neighbor's wife Helen on the Jefferson. Lenny was married to actress Lisa Bonet (The Cosby Show) Their daughter is actress Zoë Kravitz.
I thought her character was married to the white neighbor Tom. Sherman's wife on the show was Weezie. I could be wrong
@@rogerdaly6326 You're correct.
You are correct
I remember the first time I watched this video and I was blown away by Cindy nailed the drums. I fell in love instantly!
Rock on!
Lenny's mom Roxie Roker was famous for playing Helen Willis (the mixed couple neighbors on "the Jeffersons"). He was married to Lisa Bonet (the Cosby Show). Their daughter Zoe Kravitz played Catwoman in the latest Batman movie. So he is from a talented showbiz family. "American Woman" & "Fly Away" are also good.
Groove? Try Lenny's "Always on the Run".
The guest star player will make you smile.
He absolutely has charisma, always loved Lenny Kravitz he is a phenomenal musician, and his charisma absolutely carried himself through his career he is also the actor that played Cina In the hunger games
Nothin' wrong with Lenny!! ❤❤ and he can sing! 😀
Yah man ain't nothin wrong with Lenny.
A monster hit when it was released. Be sure to react to his singles from the album 'Mama Said'. GREAT stuff there (Fields of Joy, Always on the Run, It Ain't Over 'Til It's Over).
Lenny has a **** ton of great tunes, and this is one of them. One of my personal favs is a collaboration he did with Mick Jagger, "God Give Me Everything", a super cool video(so view it vs. just audio), and an even more excellent tune! To many to list, but I'm sure others will chime in with their Lenny recommendations as well.
If you want a fun story, look up how Cindy Blackman got the gig as Lenny's drummer. She is awesome!!
He's very cool, and has a very, distinct and catchy sound.
Lenny love his music, love the energy in this song 🎵 ❤
Love this song & video. It has such a 60's/70's feel and grunge feel to it.
Oh the 90's was such a great time.
Great reaction! So glad you all did the official video because Lenny's been my celeb crush for decades! Anytime I get to watch Lenny I'm happy. 😊
Lenny was on fire back then, this whole album is great, checked out Black Girl, Believe, American Woman, Mama Said
That female drummer though 🔥
Lenny and I go way back!! He is a great rocker! Listen to Fly Away and that whole album! Love his rock and roll voice!!
Lenny Kravitz is a very underrated musician. Why he didn't get more exposure I'll never know.
Always one of my favs - Also a good actor
FUN FACT:
Lenny Kravitz starts his next world tour in Europe in June 2024 at a Germany Stadium and will do concerts in Norway, Denmark, Netherlands, Belgium, France, Italy, Switzerland, Czech Republic, Poland, Croatia, Hungry and Greece. Then, the U.S. and South America.
I remember the summer this dropped and it was all over the radio. I was like 14 and that was a great summer 👍 Lenny had a great sound and put out some nice music.
Great song choice - Fly Away and American Woman are also great - love watching your reactions!
Thank you Asia & BJ. Be part it the Lenny experience!!! I went to concert in Chicago... I was the minority. It was Kool.
lenny is chillin at his compound in the bahamas i believe.
When this song first came out, I immediately thought of Jimi Hendrix. I loved this song and I loved Jimi growing up and still do at 41. I was blessed to hear multiple styles and generations of music growing up and it made me appreciate and able to enjoy music and I'm able to pass that onto my 2 daughters.
I absolutely LOVE LENNY and all his music since I first learned of him from a bandmate during high school (and shortly thereafter...), he is still at or near the very top of my List, for sure! "Let Love Rule" was his debut album, followed by "Mama Said" which featured some kick-ass guitar work alongside Lenny by none other than Slash of Guns N Roses!!! Lenny's right-hand man and fantastic guitarist/band leader's name is Craig Ross - I LOVE him too, ok... lol - As always, Peace & Love to Y'all from Georgia. 😎✌❤🔥
Lenny is one of the most talented musicians of my generation. He is awesome. Great choice.
love when they crank the bass line up.
I remember years ago, when my then-pre-teen gradeschooler daughter and I watched The Hunger Games, one of her fave characters was Cena. When I showed her this video, she was pleasantly surprised to find out that Lenny (Cena) kicked ass as a rocker back then ☺
Him doing “American Woman” is sooo good! LOVE ihs music ( and yes ASIA, he is sho easy on the eyes)👀😁. 💖💙
Love Lenny❤❤. Needed this this morning. Love you guys.
One of the best rock videos ever made for sure! :)
Bring this type of music back its the best rock era ever since music evolved
Props to Cindy Blackman for bangin those skins so good to make that rockin rhythm - PEACE LOVE n HIPPYNESS ✌☮
Lenny rocks!! Simple as that!
This song was on Gran Turismo 3 way back when. Snoop Dogg also had an original song for the game called Dogg's Turismo 3.
It's wild to think Lenny has a 33 year old daughter. He was a lot younger in this video but the guy doesn't age.
This whole album is amazing lenny actually plays all the instruments on the album … he one of the greats
This video made him a worldwide superstar. This was the number one video director combined with Lenny Kravitz’s star quality, and all these decades later it’s still a killer video.
I always wait for that phenomenal flanged guitar riff in the middle. Woweeeee!!
a song from the time when Kravitz was making hit after hit. And undoubtedly, one of the most influential videos I've ever watched.You have a desire to scream and dance to madness!
lenny n' slash n' duff are besties! check out lenny kravitz & slash - "mama said"
Love lenny
straight up swag. 2 other songs i love are Believe and Heaven Help. This cat is 57 yrs old now. def, bad ass
I remember when this came out! Such a great fusion of rock and funk!
I remember seeing this video in the 90s, and thinking that would’ve been the coolest party with the coolest people in the world. 30 years later that thought still holds up.
Lenny had all of the girls us mortals were dreaming about in the 90s. He also put outa great live show. Being there as a guy offered all kinds of opportunities if you were not creepy
Love him!
I've loved this song for years and it's on my play list.
Lenny is awesome, and he always never fails to entertain, and has musical gifts. He should have been even bigger than he is.
Lenny's a badass...period.
Lenny Kravitz with Cindy Blackman. Man that was my favorite time. Two legends coming together they made that album jump. I think she still tours with Lenny. I know she towards with her husband. She was just out here with him in Las Vegas...
I really love Lenny's tribute to Led Zeppelin from the same Kennedy Centre Honours performance. He did Whole Lotta Love, just before Heart came on. Check it out if possible
Always loved this tune. Was a young teen when it came out, and I used to crank it for that thumping bass line.
I saw him live in the early 2000's. No lie the best show ive ever been to. He blew the roof off.
Sweet! When you're ready for more from Lenny Kravitz also check out the ballad "It Ain't Over Til It's Over" from 1991 and the Velvet Underground flavored "Mr. Cab Driver" about New York cabbies from 1989.
What's up guys great reaction! LENNY 👍👍👍🔥🔥🔥😎
The whole album is FIRE!!!
