Lenny Kravitz’s new album is titled “Baptism.” Due out May 18. I’m intrigued by the title and am wondering what kind of spin he’ll put on it. He has said in past interviews that he is of some type of Christian persuasion. Most notably in his VH1 “Behind the Music” episode he said “Are You Going to Go My Way” is about Jesus.
I’m not sure I agree with many of things in his lifestyle. If someone is to claim to be a follower of Jesus, they have to show it. Take the video for “American Woman,” a remake of the classic Guess Who hit. Pretty much shows scantly-clad women dancing around. The video for “Fly Away” seems to be even more racy than “American Woman.” But then again, both videos are much tamer lyrically and visually compared to some rap videos these days.
