Why are Yo all dissin' Lenny so much...??!!!

He's cool, as good as Prince, so why don't u like him?

He is a real genius when it comes to music and sexy songs, just like Prince.

I can't see why u compare those two and always end up with Prince as "the Winner"?

Even if u're a die-hard fan, U know, there are other people out there even better than Prince, in some ways! Wake up!!!

just my personal opinion:

he's a talentless git who has absolutely NO originality in his music, lyrics or image.

u may have heard of a uk band called OCEAN COLOUR SCENE? need I say more?

Well, you're wrong about Lenny, he's not as good as Prince in any way shape or form.his first two albums were great, but he's hardly a very original artist.I know Prince borrows heavily from his influences, but he attempts to add a new twist to it.Lenny's not particularly daring in his music, and he's average live.

Is he still signed to a label after what he said on the Rave 2000 video? Hmm i think so.Add 'talks shit' to the list.

Lenny is great. He's a decent musician and a good singer. He has written some very good songs over the years. He's also one of the sexiest men around IMO. Don't diss Lenny, he's one of the good guys.

He was funny up until the Delbert Wilkins Show but his act has been the same ever since. He does a good impersonation of Prince though.

omg Sprry, HRB, I can't co-sign that. I can't even believe you said it. Everybody's entitled to an opinion, but when you look at Prince's body of work and Lenny's it ain't even close.

I like Lenny (I respect a man who loves his mama like he did), and I like a lot of his stuff, but as an artist, and particularly as a songwriter, he's overrated.

He is a real genius when it comes to music and sexy songs, just like Prince.


omg "Genius" overstates his capabilities somewhat.

I can't see why u compare those two and always end up with Prince as "the Winner"?


omg Check the resumes.

Even if u're a die-hard fan, U know, there are other people out there even better than Prince, in some ways! Wake up!!!


Name them and we'll see.

No. I haven't heard his albums. But I've seen him perform on TV and he does NOTHING for me. Can't get into his act at all.

all i know is as a budding musician i only hope i can become as versatile as lenny and prince are...and about him bein retro when i 1st started learnin guitar, i wound up listenin 2 everything and every1n i could find and incoroporatin that in2 my playin...and if all ya'll who swear he tryin 2 be like prince even bothered 2 check out his songs beyon the radio u'd see that him and prince have completely different styles... lenny has a harder-edged rock sound where prince is more like soul that incorporates rock and funk in2 the mix... and even though i know im'a get clowned and ignored when this post is read, i'm just sayin every great musician in evey genre has been compared 2 somebody,and if the people are listenin,comin 2 the shows and buyin the cd's he must be doin somethin right...wink
