Lenny Kravitz Takes Over for Steven Tyler
With all the confirmations and denials of Aerosmith breaking up, former Geffen exec John Kaldoner, who’s responsible for the band’s 80s revival, is pushing the band to continue on without lead singer Steven Tyler and find a replacement. He thinks that the new front man should be Lenny Kravitz. John said “I was talking to Marty Frederickson about this because he co-wrote ‘Jaded’ and worked with them for 10 years or so. We were talking about how no one can replace Steven Tyler, but the only person he said – and I agreed with – that could even make Aerosmith anything would be Lenny Kravitz.” Joe Perry and Brad Whitford have confirmed that they are searching for a replacement but it’s unknown if they’re considering Lenny. Maybe they should do a reality show like ‘Rock Star: INXS’.
