More quotes by Ginuwine
I want a woman that wants me to take care of myself because truly, that tells a lot about you. And if you don't take care of yourself how can you take care of a woman? How can you take care of kids?
Ginuwine
The performing part of it, that's what I live for. I've always told people that's what I was born for. I believe, with the proper things around me, and everything I need as a performer band, and all that kind of stuff, I still feel to this day there's no one that can touch me. Still.
Ginuwine
If it sounds good to me and I hate my voice, so if I'm willing to listen to my voice over and over again, it's a hit. Guaranteed it'll be a hit.
Ginuwine
My drive is still cool, it's not like how when I first began. I don't think anyone's drive is the same.
Ginuwine
I'm the kind of cat that can finish three songs in a day. Two or three songs in a day. If my voice is up to it and I feel up to it, I can finish two or three songs in a day.

I don't allow chivalry to die, on my part, but as far as guys taking care of their woman, and, making sure that it's not all about self, it's about giving, and how a lot of guys don't groom themselves, how a lot of guys don't take care of themselves.

You don't get any mixtapes, you know, 'cause I don't like my voice in there. I want to be that, but that's just not me, you know. And I'm very impatient if I don't do it right, I'll be like, well, 'Ok that's the best I'm gonna do it.' Because I feel like if you take too much time on something, you lose the motivation for it.

I think old school TV shows helped in raising your kids and helped in the way things should be done. Now you just see kids disrespecting their parents, you see kids cursing and all kind of things that shouldn't be done.
Ginuwine
You have to do all you can as a parent to stop your kid from doing all the craziness that's going on in the world. And although I still have music that's saying one thing, I still let them know what it is, and I'm not doing anything in my music that I wouldn't tell my kids about.
Ginuwine
By the grace of God alone, I was able to still focus, when it was time for me to do my job, and I think I've done it pretty good, and I know I can buckle down even more.
Ginuwine
I'm not going to listen to the hottest Hip Hop station in my city because that's not where I'm at right now. I'm going to listen to the smooth jams of the 90's and early 2000's. That's where I am and that's where my audience is.
Ginuwine
So that's where it differs for me now, it's the creativity, versus, the raunchiness from back in the days. So I just try to be more creative nowadays.
Ginuwine
If I'm nominated [for Grammy] I would love to win, and get up on the stage and just say thank you. It would be a great closing, for me, a great closing to a great career.
Ginuwine
Just wanting to be more of an example, but letting them know also that I made mistakes when I was a kid and I'm not expecting you to be perfect.
Ginuwine
I got to keep moving, I've got to keep living and I've got to keep working.
Ginuwine
I think the legacy I'll leave on music is just an artist that went out here and gave 100%.
Ginuwine
Sometimes I do, sometimes I don't. But while I'm doing vocal in a studio, I can't stand it.
Ginuwine
Everybody has their own little thing, but I don't do that. But my wife might take care of my nails or something, but I'm always groomed, I'm always, making sure I smell good.
Ginuwine
You're your worst critic, and I don't like the way I sound on the mic.
Ginuwine
Wear that cologne, shave your face, shave your head, cut your nails, you know...take care of yourself.
