Josh.May 18, 2004Walk away, Lenny. For the love of God, just walk away.

jimbobMay 18, 2004This album is the musical equivalent of watching grass grow. Perhaps Lenny should stop diddling movie stars, and try writing some decent songs.

LaurenceHMay 20, 2004This CD falls falt. Maybe the only first single 'Where are we runnin' could have a minimum of interest... But, seriously, Kravitz can do better. He should stick to P.O.D style, not his own.

KoenDMay 22, 2004Lenny rocks! Give this CD a chance...the more you listen to it the better it gets. It's his best album in years!

LawrenceCMay 30, 2004NO WAY. This record was probably released to say ''Hey guys, I'm still in the game''... A shame, really. Stay away from 'Baptism'. It sucks.

MikaSJun 5, 2004Lenny's worst recording. And why the hell did he invite Jay-Z for another boring song? Jay-Z means so much more than ''storm''... Dump out this album. Yuck. A real mess.

DTMay 18, 2005"cus she makes me feel good, she's so fine" .....I think I am going to puke. This song is one of the most contrived songs I have ever heard. Lenny is definitly reaching on this one.

jurajmMay 21, 2004I was looking forward to hearing a new album from lenny, but was seriously dissapointed... totally uninspired. A shame, really...

UnclePeanutMay 21, 2004Lenny's 2nd straight subpar album... at one time I thought each new record pushed in a different direction but this is retreaded stuff.

PeterRDec 25, 2005I love the dynamicism and polish of this album. I love Lenny's lighter more acoustic songs. I love this album.

Somewhere along the line in his career, he fully absorbed his pantheon of Sixties and Seventies influences and began to sound like no one but himself. The confidence that results from that growth -- along with the knowledge that comes from having made records for fifteen years -- is apparent throughout this album.

MojoTired and contrived-sounding.... Baptism? Craptism, more like. [Jun 2004, p.102]
-
Kravitz has evolved merely from one set of retro-70s surfaces to another, with uncharacteristically uninspired hooks.
