Lenny Kravitz's acceptance speech at the PCA's

During his acceptance speech, Kravtiz said, "When I was thinking about what to say tonight, I kept going back to that word icon. It means a lot of things to a lot of people, but to me, it means you've made an indelible mark by being who God created you to be and daring to be different. When I was first coming up, a lot of people offered me a lot of deals. But they wanted me to change."

He further added, "I've been doing this a very long time, more than 35 years. It's never been about how many records I sell, or how many awards I win. It's not about trying to write hits or being calculated or formulaic. It's about enjoying and being grateful for the journey and using the gifts that God gave you. Never follow the trends, set your own pace, and recognize that the best is right here, right now, in front of you."
