And again it is a nice album... When i heard the single, it was the first time for me that i didn't react positive.. Every time Lennre releases an album i think it is a good one, but i feared this one... and yet again, IT IS GREAT!!!!!
So all you Lenny fans... go and listen/buy BAPTISM!!!
Anyone of you heard it also? What do you think?

Does that come out next week? He was being interviewed on some show last night, but I think they were mostly talking about his break-up with Nicole Kidman.

I've not heard anything off the new album so far though.

I haven't heard anything from this new cd, but I will be buying it next week. I like Lenny and even though I was a little disappointed with his last cd, I still think he's a pretty cool guy.

ok the album is ok, but i prefer the more funky stuff like from the album five, i dont think it as good as 'five' or 'lenny' by a long shot!!

and what really got on my nerves was, im sitting there listening to the song 'storm' thinking to myself, this tunes cool and one of the best so far, and then what the hell, Jay-z starts rapping, totally ruined the song, he just babbles a load of rubbish nothing to do with the content of the song!!

why do these musicians ruin songs with pointless appearances from rap stars

I'm diggin' it. Like most albums these days it's hard 2 make a judgement after 1 or 2 listens. Right now it's good but who knows how i will feel next week. How good music is depends on your mood at the time. I have gone from hatin' and album 2 lovin' it and back.

What does the religious title mean?

CinisterCee said:

It means he's a "Minister of Rock 'N Roll!"
I like the album and have been listening to it for about a week- can't wait to buy it.

Wasn't Prince suppost to be on this album?

It betta not be one-a 'nem Rainbow Children-type joints. That's what I imagined.

Not like WHOA look out, Lenny gonna bless u with that hot music!

Theme music "God Made Me Funky" - Headhunters

I'll wait for BMG to get it.

Reviews are pretty harsh on this album. I'm gonna listen to it first before I buy it.

I bought it today, after listening to it on VH1.com first. Listening to it on the web made me think it was good enough to buy.

And I have to say, I'm quite satisfied.

I think it's as good as 5 and better than "Lenny".

where are we running .....

its hot!!!

it great track to listen to In New York City after hitch hicking across the country


Lenny Saves Rock N Roll...


what ever is your pleasure...

i like the first track and the other 2 on the cd single.


"keep the skin tight and the booty in the air" - lenny

Gotta tell y'all...Lenny is on a steady decline for me. After hearing the underwhelming "Where Are We Runnin' " a month or so ago, I had low expectations for Baptism....guess they should have been lower. And I thought "Lenny" was weak. I've listened to Baptism two or theree times, not one song is really memorable, they are stripped down, simples tunes...which, don't get me wrong, works for many artists alot of the time...not Lenny, not this time. Just disappointed I guess. Maybe he should focus more on his music than his clothes.

Back to Stevie Salas

I love it!
Way better than 'Lenny'
favourite songs: minister of rock n roll, california, sistamamalover, baptized, destiny

check out all the lyrics on my site:

i'm too shallow to listen to the cd...I can't get beyond the fucked up the pimped out hair and the awful video.

Lenny is Cool. I Love the New look. He was on Leno doing the new single. He was Great. The album comes out on the 18th. I think Lenny looks Sexy with the straight hair.

I'm listening to it right now. First impressions, its way better than Lenny, but not as good as 5. I really miss the soul/funk/rock feel of Mama Said, but this album is pretty good.

Hootchietoad said:

i heard he made the whole album in a matter of a month or 2? something like that? I never heard it but im gettin the feelin that it may become another "Fly Or Die" (NERD).

Rushed albums never really get their dues.

Lennys music gotta grow on ya a little bit, he is the only one that compares to P.

Yeah, i like it. I'm a bit disapponited by the last 3-4 tracks and by Sistamamalover, qhich I found borin, but there are some really cool tunes:
BAPTIZED is the perfection.
MINISTER OF ROCK N ROLL is powerful and sensual groovy.
WHERE ARE WE RUNNIN a great stick in your mind chorus
LADY a good old school rhythm with passionate vocals
CALIFORNIA a dive into the past for Lenny, and a great WEst-coast tune
my favourite so far is i don't wanna be a star. i FOUND IT INCREDIBLE

buy it!!!!!

Saying it's Better than Lenny is not saying much

paisleypark4 said:

ever heard of a little album called "in utero" by nirvana?

and there are countless other "rushed" albums that have been huge.

or how about "surfer rosa" by the pixies?

i disagree.

terence trent d'arby and stevie wonder are two talents who compare to P even more in my opinion.

when i hear "where are we running?" i can't help but start singing zz top's
'sharp dressed man".
