Description:

Despite a name that suggests he's not in it for the long run, this 24-year-old Washington, DC native is attempting to set the standard for the premillenium loverman. He's got washboard abs to go with serious pecs, an earnest if not terribly flamboyant voice, and a sense of subtlety. His work is pleasantly free of the overwrought longing and distress that diminish most quiet storm efforts. Ginuwine's first CD is produced by Timbaland and features his trademark sparse soundscapes, which aim to support rather than overpower the frontman. In Maxwellian mode, Ginuwine has the sense to ask for, rather than declare, his carnal intentions, and he does so in songs that hold up to repeated listening. Ginuwine has--well--genuine musical merit. --Martin Johnson

1Ginuwine The Bachelor  Sep 15, 2009
This product was defective because there were extra blank tracks in between the original tracks so there are times of brief silence.. i contacted the seller but never got a response. do not buy from this seller unless you want to be dissappointed!

5Great service  Jun 01, 2009

5PERFECTION!!!  May 09, 2009
This is the best r&b album EVER created!!! They just don't make em like this anymore!

5What can I say, it's "G"....  Feb 23, 2007
this is my thrid copy of this cd, they always seem to get scratched really bad. This album is great, it was Ginuiwine first album out and he did outstanding! From tracks 1-10 is just non-stop jamming. He has great beats, great vocals, and outstanding musical effects to spice it up some. If you like Keith Sweat and R. Kelly then Ginuwine is definately the person that ties in both of their style with his own and he just drop hits. And I have yet to meet a lady that can resist the sound of Ginuwine even if they never heard of him. My props out to "G" and the Bachelor, also I have all of Ginuwine's CD's and this one is the best then "100% G" is the next best.

5New Chapter For R&B  May 23, 2006
Ginuwine's debut album from 1996 was a fresh new start for good ol' R&B/Soul when the perfomers both wrote their own music and actually were interesting perfomers. Not since the late 80's we had seen guys that could actually dance and Ginuwine co-wrote most songs and made them very personal and sophisticated aswell. 21 year old Ginuwine was obviously influenced by both Prince and Michael Jackson (And he also covered them both). Timbaland on the other hand was a relativetly fresh producer that had a very unique sound with, awesome samples and frequently used sound loops of his own voice, the music was a mix of contemporary R&B and Hip Hop that also made the music appealing to a broader audience. As other reviewer already pointed out, this album was not only a bluprint for Ginuwine's upcoming album, but also for many other talented Perfomers/Dancers like Usher, Dru Hill and Justin Timberlake and also to talented songwriters like R. Kelly and later Ne-Yo.

"The Bachelor" Got this very fresh sound all over it, something that the R&B world really needed at the time when New Jack Swing was all over the charts but eventually gotten a little tiresome. Ginuwine was also capable of both singing and dancing and both making catchy uptempo's and seductive slow jams. Simple put, he was the Next thing and the record sold extremly well. First single "Pony" is a midtempo with awesome sound loops and very daring lyrics like "If youre horny, lets do it, Ride it, my pony, My saddles waitin, Come and jump on it", It sounded like nothing else on the charts and reminded alot of Prince's most controversial songs. "Tell Me Do You Want It" is an slow jam right on point, ditto with the seductive "Hello" and "Lonely Daze". Great lyrics and sound, one of his best. "Holler" is another uptempo made for the club. "Ginuwine 4 Your Mind" remind me alot of a slower Pony, the samples are quite alike. "Only When You're Lonely" yet another great slow jam. "I'll Do Anything/Sorry a midtempo co-penned by Missy Elliott. "World Is So Could" also feature a sample simular to Pony, this one is also slow. "When Dover Cry" a 90's version of Prince's classic 1984 hit, Pretty damn good and also a hit. "G Thang" is not so interesting, a midtempo that features Missy. "550 What?" closes the album, yet another good song.

Overall, Ginuwine's debut is almost flawless and not only stands as one of the greatest R&B albums of the 90's but also as the bluprint for many other artists to come. It got uptempo's and slow jams and he can both sing and dance and he writes his own music. Now this is just great!. If you are new to him, start here. His first album is the best.
