Lenny Kravitz hails inspirational Michael Jackson

'Are You Gonna Go My Way' hitmaker Lenny Kravitz said Michael Jackson "made" music happen for him, after his first concert was the Jackson 5 at Madison Square Garden

Lenny Kravitz has hailed Michael Jackson as hugely influential on his career in music.

The 'Are You Gonna Go My Way' hitmaker's first ever concert was seeing the Jackson 5 at Madison Square Garden in New York City and he was a fan of the late King of Pop from that day forward.

And Lenny fulfilled a life-long dream when he got to work with Michael in 2001 during session's for his final LP 'Invincible'.

Speaking to The Guardian newspaper, Lenny said: "He's the person who made it happen for me. He loved [us] working together. He asked me to push him. I did."

Although Michael tragically passed away aged 50 in 2009, the pair will be heard singing a duet on 53-year-old Lenny's upcoming 11th studio album 'Raise Vibration'.

The duo both sing on the track 'Low', and Lenny admitted some people listening to the LP - which comes out in September - actually thought he was doing an impression of MJ on the track.

He revealed: "A lot of people say: 'Oh, you're doing that Michael Jackson impersonation.' No, that's him."

Earlier this week, Lenny announced his first UK tour in three years, as he confirmed plans to perform next month in Manchester, Birmingham and London.

The run will kick off on June 19 at Manchester's O2 Apollo and conclude at London's The SSE Arena, Wembley on June 22.

The mini tour will see Lenny supported by soul musician Curtis Harding, who previously backed CeeLo Green and formed the R&B/garage rock band Night Sun with Black Lips members in 2009.

Re: Kravitz announces duett with MJ on his new album

Interesting I wonder what this song is all about, how it sounds.. I'm not overlooking a title in that article am I? I dont see one. I'm curious
 
Re: Kravitz announces duett with MJ on his new album

The article states the song is called "LOW". Kravitz teases the song on his social media sites. Duett is maybe exaggerated. Maybe MJ is singing a line in the song.

Yes, very interesting. I believe the article says the title is 'Low'.
 
Re: Kravitz announces duett with MJ on his new album

Re: Kravitz announces duett with MJ on his new album

Just listening to the song. It's good but not so much MJ to hear. In the chorus i think.
 
Re: Kravitz announces duett with MJ on his new album

Haha did anyone else immediately think of Malachi and Cascio when impersonator was mentioned?
 
Re: Kravitz announces duett with MJ on his new album

Can someone post the full song? The link above does not work for me. Thanks!
 
Re: Kravitz announces duett with MJ on his new album

Does Michael sing anything or is it just BG vocals?
 
Re: Kravitz announces duett with MJ on his new album

You can listen to it in full on spotify.
Michael is only singing like 4 hoos and that's it... He might be singing in the background vocals but I'm not sure. I'm pretty disappointed
 
Re: Kravitz announces duett with MJ on his new album

Oh, first I thought "New Michael Jackson's album coming out and one of the songs is duet with LK". Sad it's not that way. And the song "Low" is just a piece of ... Disappointed.
 
Re: Kravitz announces duett with MJ on his new album

Just listened to the song and only feel desapointment... This is certainly NOT a duet with Michael
 
Re: Kravitz announces duett with MJ on his new album

I actually really like the song but I wonder if Michaels "vocals" were actually meant for that song or if they were taken from other sessions
 
Re: Kravitz announces duett with MJ on his new album

i think Lenny just took MJs "Hooo" from Another Day and put them in this song.
don't hear any MJ vocals on the chorus, but could be wrong. just listened to it once.
 
Re: Kravitz announces duett with MJ on his new album

Don't caught up in the hype, nowhere did Lenny say that this was a duet with Michael. I think there was another article where he said that there were some leftover adlibs from one of their sessions and that he used them.

Other than that, that is one terrific song.

Btw is just me or does the strings, (and other elements) sound like She Was Loving me demo? Or maybe another Invincible era song, can't quite put my finger on it
 
Re: Kravitz announces duett with MJ on his new album

Yeah, I think it's it's literally just some hoos hahha

Was gonna say it just sounds like those from Another Day.
 
Re: Kravitz announces duett with MJ on his new album

Please link to listen the song. Spotify is not available in all countries!
 
Re: Kravitz announces duett with MJ on his new album

Dammit! I was excited to hear another MJ/Lenny Kravitz collaboration, because I really love "Another Day". Now I'm reading that there are only a few "hooos". ~Shattered~

:(
 
Re: Kravitz announces duett with MJ on his new album

Just listening to the song. It's good but not so much MJ to hear. In the chorus i think.

I think it may be Michael in the chorus layers, in the higher register, but it's hard to tell.
I also think it's him singing one line "don't lift me up" at the 3:39/3:40 mark.
I heard it in my right speaker. Then of course there are the "hooos".

It's a good song, actually....I've always loved Lenny Kravitz's work.
It's a stretch to call it a duet though. LOL.
 
Re: Kravitz Announces Duet with MJ on New Album

Anyone heard the iTunes version? Someone mentioned it is longer and has more ad libs?

It is definetely Lenny at 3:40. But I think it might be Michael at 3:46 in the background! It is really really hard to tell though.
I also think there are some "stretched" hoos in the chorus, kind of similar to his bg vocals on "All In Your Name"
 
Re: Kravitz Announces Duet with MJ on New Album

So nobody has the song? Please share mp3 or youtube rip or anything. I can not buy it or download it because I live where I live.
 
Re: Kravitz Announces Duet with MJ on New Album

I can't hear MJ at all apart from the random copy and pasted hoos. I think people are listening for things that don't exist.
 
Re: Kravitz Announces Duet with MJ on New Album

Listening from apple music. Nothing to hear really. That's what i call DISSAPOINTMENT.
