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.

More quotes by Ginuwine
I always loved music and I always loved to perform, and that's my favorite part, to perform my favorite part is not the studio, I can't stand the studio.
Ginuwine
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 the legacy I'll leave on music is just an artist that went out here and gave 100%.

I think doing shows with other R&B artists like myself brings the attention to the crowd. You can't just do those one artist shows anymore. I don't like just me being on the show.

It's probably easier for rappers as far as a respect level. 'Cause with singers, the powers that be tend to feel that we're stupid.

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
That's what I try to do, my wife and I, we try to, not shelter them [kids], but still not contribute to the delinquency of a minor.

I feel like I put it together better than anybody else. I don't feel like I'm the best dancer. I don't feel like I'm the best singer. I don't feel like I'm the best looking. I feel like I'm the best at putting it all together.
Ginuwine
Sometimes I do, sometimes I don't. But while I'm doing vocal in a studio, I can't stand it.
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
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'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.
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.

The internet has really messed everyone up. It has its ups and downs, but for a music artist it's a killer.
Ginuwine
What excites me is doing shows now. I don't really get excitement from doing music because you never know what your music is going to bring. It seems like now it's all for nothing.
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
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.
Ginuwine
I never set out now to get a Grammy, or get an American Music Award, but it still is nice to be recognized.
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?
