Relationships are something I know about.
— Ginuwine
I really want to be different.
Tyrese was my best man at my wedding.
I've been to acting coaches and everything, but they had to open me up and all that, so now I'm getting better with it.
I can take truth.
That's what people love and respect about me. I'm going to give you 100 percent.
I never wanted to be flavour of the month.
Anything that's going to continue to keep you out there as an artist, you've got to appreciate and embrace it.
I'm glad I was part of history, here long after I'm gone.
I really admire other voices.
R&B is everywhere, and I am who I am.
One of my daughters wants to act, but none of them sing - well, one of them sings but she's got some ways to go. I love her acting. I'm actually trying to put her in some classes and everything so she can learn the art of acting. I don't want her to get no parts because her dad is Ginuwine. I want her to earn it.
I like to make songs that are gonna be here for a long time, not for five months that they play on the radio.
We can't control everything in our lives. Sometimes you're No. 2, 3, 4 or 5. That doesn't matter. What matters is that you strive to be No. 1.
People who come to see me have expectations. If I don't live up to those expectations, I'd be a failure.
It's important to show love to the people that came before you.
Once you put your mind to something, your mind is very strong.
I just like to do things that people can remember, but I wanna always do my own album and make statements.
All my career I've been like a leader, and a lot of people followed what I did.
Tank is my boy. I'm the first artist he's ever been on the road with. We go all the way back to 'Pony.' He was my background singer on my tour.
In acting you have to not be yourself. It's like whatever character is put on, you have to just to turn into that person.
You don't alienate the people that helped you and started you out.
I still have my talent, knowledge and I have my work ethic.
R&B touches your heart.
I've stood the test of time, weathered a lot of storms and hurdled a lot of obstacles.
I don't want to put out a CD of album songs. I'm gunning for every song to be a single.
I don't like to go out a lot. It's trouble.
Aaliyah was in a class by herself.
A lot of people don't get second chances.
You've gotta be humble. That's what I've been throughout my whole career.
Look at the New Kids on the Block, the Back Street Boys and *NSYNC... all those boy bands happened because of New Edition.
When you're doing good, everybody praises you. But when everything's all gone, a lot of people are nowhere to be found. So you always just believe in yourself, do it yourself and you won't be let down.
Absolutely I view life from a different perspective than I did in my past. It's rewarding, to me, because it actually lets me know that I am growing up.
I've always been attracted to acting as soon as I did my first video.
A show isn't just a show, a show is entertainment; it's modeling, acting, singing and dancing all ripped into one, with the little time that we have to do it.
I want to represent my name to the fullest: Ginuwine.
Tyrese is my boy.
A lot of people bit into Timbaland's sounds.
I think any smart businessman would go where the money is bigger, but I also feel like you don't forget your roots either.
Me and my brothers decided to form a group called T.G.T. - Tyrese, Ginuwine and Tank.
It's just a good thing to be a part of history and a lot of people will not be able to say that.
It is my duty to bring awareness to people in need.
If I don't feel it when I'm sitting there, if it doesn't give me the feeling I got when I heard 'Pony' or 'So Anxious' or 'In Those Jeans,' I scrap it.
I'm a firm believer when I'm doing my job to not want anybody around.
I think everyone should aspire to be someone great, and that was one of the greats. Aaliyah was one of the great ones.
I like to get judged on my talent and, when you see me, how I look.
I know music is just powerful in itself and to have someone say the words that I sat down and wrote changed their life or made them feel a certain way, that hits something in you.
It's always good to have friends, but it's really about family. When you're younger, that isn't always clear. With friends it's about going out and kicking it. You learn that's not where it ends up.
I don't like the way a lot of music is going these days. No one buys it.
I don't look at certain things on TV anymore. I don't listen to certain music anymore. I make sure my kids don't listen to it. It's funny because back in the days I could look at comedy shows and all kind of stuff and you didn't even realize how much cursing it had in it.
