Well apparently that last post took all my blogging mojo AGAIN (well, that and it's hot and shit) so to celebrate some more Black Music Month, you get a Lenny Kravitz video. Lenny is one of my heroes: fact. Even when he does shit I really disagree with, like everything surrounding "Black Velveteen" and that Baptism album. And I mean everything. What's that, a breeze? No, it's secondhand embarrassment! Not as refreshing!
I was actually going to post the vid for Black Velveteen for Danzy, but instead here's a live video of Lenny with my other biracial rawk hero and ex-ex-ex-stepfather (don't even ask, you wouldn't understand) Slash! I fuckin approve.

and my mama said
that it's good to be natural
and my mama said
that it's good to be factual
but i'm always on the run
(Always on the run)
but i'm always on the run

and my mama said
