ABOUT OUR HONOREE

“With this star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame, Lenny Kravitz’s contributions to the entertainment industry will be forever immortalized and celebrated. It serves as a testament to his exceptional talent, dedication, and significant impact on popular culture,” stated Ana Martinez, Producer of the Hollywood Walk of Fame. ”Lenny continues to inspire aspiring musicians and entertainers, and this recognition from the Hollywood Chamber of Commerce is truly well-deserved,” added Martinez.

Regarded as one of the preeminent rock musicians of our time, Lenny Kravitz has transcended genre, style, race, and class over the course of a three-decade-plus musical career. Reveling in the soul, rock, and funk influences of the sixties and seventies, the writer, producer, and multi-instrumentalist has won four GRAMMY® Awards.

Lenny Kravitz was recently honored with the “Music Icon Award” at the 2024 People’s Choice Awards and was also nominated as a 2024 Rock and Roll Hall of Fame inductee. He was recently recognized by the CFDA with their “Fashion Icon Award” for his role as not only one of rock’s most esteemed musicians but also a major fashion influence.

In 2023, Kravitz debuted the anthemic “Road To Freedom,” a song he wrote, performed, and produced specifically for the much-buzzed-about Netflix film, Rustin. The track, which can be heard HERE, plays over the film’s end title credits. In conjunction with the release of the song, Kravitz secured a Golden Globe nomination for “Best Original Song – Motion Picture”, a Critics Choice Award nomination for “Best Song”, and the Guild of Music Supervisors Award nomination for “Best Song Written and/or Recorded for a Film” for the soul-stirring anthem.

In addition to his eleven albums, which have sold 40 million worldwide, his creative firm Kravitz Design Inc. touts an impressive portfolio of noteworthy ventures, including hotel properties, condominium projects, private residences, and high-end legendary brands like Rolex, Leica, and Dom Perignon. In 2022, he launched his own ultra-premium spirits brand, Nocheluna Sotol—a distillate from Chihuahua, Mexico derived from the sotol plant. Kravitz is the author of Flash, a book that showcases unique rock photography. His recent memoir, Let Love Rule, also landed him on The New York Times Best Sellers List. Kravitz currently serves as the brand ambassador and global face for YSL Beauty’s Y cologne and is the global ambassador for luxury watch brand Jaeger-LeCoultre.

This multidimensional artist has also segued into film, appearing as Cinna in the box-office hits, The Hunger Games and The Hunger Games: Catching Fire, and in the critically acclaimed films Precious and The Butler.

Lenny Kravitz is set to release his highly anticipated new studio album, Blue Electric Light, on May 24, 2024.

Truly a consistent light, Kravitz also works diligently to spread good internationally through his Let Love Rule Foundation. Let Love Rule Foundation has a longstanding partnership with Glo Good Foundation to bring free dental care clinics and education to the underserved in The Bahamas.  They have also dedicated support to providing Bahamians suffering from food insecurity during the pandemic as well as rebuilding efforts from Hurricane Dorian in 2019. Kravitz’s steadfast activism has also included partnerships with UN Human Rights, UNICEF, MusiCares, and Global Citizen.
