Lenny Kravitz should probably ask his white manager, white agent, and white publicist how many Black events he's been invited to and was never informed. Black talent acts so clueless. Give me a fuckung break.

In an interview with @Esquire , Lenny Kravitz pointed on his treatment amongst other Black artists, and he’s 1000% right 👏🏾 Should Black award shows start incorporating “non traditional” music genres such as Rock and Roll in future broadcasts and awards?

It took him FOREVER to choose a winner. In a typical God & Dolph coincidence, she was newly married and pregnant with their first child. He encouraged her to sell it. We stayed in touch and he sent her a present when the baby was born.

@GGMoney17 One thing is that talent made themselves available for press, so you saw alot of them. It can be SO hard to get actors to do press for movies. They're worse than rappers. Also, they used AA and Latin focused PR firms to accompany general market. Again, makes a huge difference
