Free Music Review: Lenny Kravitz- 5
Hit: 3 Stars
I have always loved Lenny. He has always been a great artist with great music. I dont like alot of his older stuff. When 5 came out that was when i got turned on to him. I remember listening to this album all the time on my way to the basketball court with my friends. And around that time was when "Fly Away" and "American Woman" became big hits. So i bought the album, and i wasnt dissapointed, but there wasnt a whole lot of truly speacial matireal on it. This was one of his funk albums, not his signature Pop/Rock style. And while there were a few great tracks such as the mellow and relaxing "I Belong To U" and the smooth "Little Girls Eyes", there were also a few tracks that almost made me laugh. Such as "Black Velveteen" which was almost a techno track about... well to be honest it was about a vagina. But the biggest thing about this album was that while it did not sell a whole lot, it helped rejuvenate his career after the disaster that was Circus. People pretty much had written Lenny off as a has been after Circus, but then he put out 5 and it shot him to superstardom again. Basically this album isnt great, but its not bad either. It lays right in between somewhere.
Grade:
C+
5 (REISSUED WITH 2 BONUS TRACKS) Poster
Lenny Kravitz is still obsessed with the '70s, and for good reason: he's found endless inspiration in the work of Sly Stone, Stevie Wonder, and a decade's worth of soul men. Kravitz hasn't lost the funk on 5, but the sound here drifts dangerously close to the Me decade's shallowest end, when disco seemed to rob R&B of its soul. So the passion Kravitz has shown on early albums is strangely diluted (aside from the album-closing epic "Can We Find a Reason?"). 5 is the singer's first foray into digital technology, but despite a few modern effects at the edges, he's doing essentially the same as before--only colder. --Steve ApplefordLenny Kravitz Photos
