Lenny Kravitz - Black and White America
Kravitz’s ninth studio album reflects on growing up in a mixed-race family—his mother was The Jeffersons actress Roxie Roker, while his father was TV producer Sy Kravitz. The CD’s 16 songs follow Kravitz’s usual mix of rock and funk, from the Aerosmith-like “Come and Get It” to the James Brown-inspired “Life Ain’t Ever Been Better Than It Is Now.” He also teams up with A-list rappers Jay-Z and Drake, on “Boongie Drop” and “Sunflower” respectively, proving that the veteran “Fly Away” singer is still flying high.
