Interesting Facts about Ginuwine
- He was inspired by Michael Jackson to become an R&B star. He began his music career in the late 1980s with an amateur hip-hop group called Finesse Five and then sung for a local band called Physical Wonder. He was discovered by a member of Jodeci, and in 1996 he made his debut as Ginuwine, a name chosen because he considers himself down-to-earth.

In 1999 he followed up with the melodramatic 100% Ginuwine, also produced by Timbaland, which includes a cover of the Michael Jackson ballad "She's Out of My Life."
