Neneh Cherry-BUDDY X

Neneh's sly diss directed at Lenny Kravitz for cheating on Lisa Bonet. On a side note, is it just me or does Neneh look exactly like Rae Dawn Chong?

Yep it's a great song. From what I've read, Lenny Kravitz used to check into hotels under the alias of "Buddy X" while on tour with Neneh, and she witnessed him cheating with groupies. Neneh was a friend of Lisa's at the time.

This was also explained in a VH1 "Behind The Music" episode about Lenny Kravitz. I believe that's where I heard this story as well.

I will forever love and miss you...my sweet Prince.

You've got that right. She's really talented and woefully underrated.

Except most stories I've heard attribute the leaving to Lisa.

She got sick of his whoring and bounced, so I've always heard.

Yeah, they were involved for several years. He actually produced the "Vanessa Paradis" album for her in like 92 or 93. It's a fantastic record, tho it didn't do much in the USA.

Mrs. Johnny Depp?!...why folks always trying to mentally marry these folks?! lol
