Might be talking out of my ass, but I think a lot of people give Timbaland most of the credit for Ginuwine’s success. And I believe he was kinda forgotten about and no longer on people’s radar after they stopped working together. Unlike most producers, Timbaland had a face and dropped adlibs that complimented tracks, so that probably had a lot to do with it too.


depends on who youre asking.

for people who are moreo into rap and just casually follow r&b - yea, he was somewhat off of their radars after he stopped working with timbo, but at the same time, those types aren't qualified to rank singers, so it doesn't matter.

for r&b fans, Ginuwine never stopped poppin, until he took a personal leave. then when he came back years later, he was immediately poppin again. then came the TGT stuff, which was like the hottest chit at the time.


and i'd say, he did more to solidify his legacy as a serious r&b act AFTER the run w/ timbaland.
people in here saying they wish it was Ginuwine on the timberlake songs, but Ginuwine was out droppin hotter chit than that.


He's not that great of a singer but his music was dope because of Timbo


a lot of his best stuff was after timbo. song-wise at least,
but this is a rap board, I get it.:beli:

Because of Justin Timberfake


timberlake is not highly regarded in the r&b realm.

I don't know why yall always bring him up.

Ginuwine's biggest years were the Timbaland produced albums for casuals and R&B heads. He had hits after ("Differences", "Stingy", "Hell Yeah", "In Those Jeans") with some of them being classic. The Bachelor and 100% are the foundation though. Ginuwine isn't Ginuwine without those albums. Ginuwine isn't highly regarded without those albums. He's pretty much a singles artist without those albums. His best work was definitely with Timbaland on the boards and Static and Missy on writing.

Ginuwine's biggest hit was without Timbo so yall acting like Timbo is the reason he had hits can get outta here.

Real R&B fans got Ginuwine on their list of legends. He tours and gets love.

Unless you have the proof to support I’m going to have to disagree

Pony was his crowning achievement. Got him MTV & BET looks. That was the pop hit
