Ginuwine can be spotted in one of Jodeci's videos. There, he met rapper Missy Elliott and producer "Timbaland", who became his main collaborators through the 1990s. Ginuwine's first single, the 1996 " Pony" from Ginuwine...The Bachelor, showcased his smooth vocals and Timbaland's innovative production style, and the two became a hit-making duo.
After his second album, 100% Ginuwine, released in 1999, Ginuwine and Timbaland grew apart, and producers such as R. Kelly have crafted hits for him since then. In 2001, Ginuwine had a number-four hit on the Billboard Hot 100 with the single " Differences", which also peaked at number-one on the Billboard Hot R&B/Hip-Hop Singles & Tracks chart. In 2002, Ginuwine was a feature artist on P. Diddy's number-one hit "I Need a Girl (Part II)".
Ginuwine's fifth album, Back II Da Basics, was released on November 15, 2005. The album debuted at number 12 on the Billboard 200, selling close to 100,000 copies. Ginuwine stated on BET's Top 100 countdown that the album went Gold with sales of 500,000 copies.
In May 2007, an album entitled I Apologize was released in stores. Although attributed to Ginuwine, the release was an unauthorized album and only included three Ginuwine songs - apparently from stolen masters - and ten songs by other artists. Ginuwine spoke against the unofficial release on both his MySpace page and through YouTube.
Ginuwine's sixth album entitled A Man's Thoughts, was released on June 23, 2009. Ginuwine formed a group with Tank and Tyrese named TGT. Their first single was a remix of Tank's "Please Don't Go". They were supposed to tour but plans fell apart due to conflicting schedules.
Ginuwine announced on his Myspace Blog on August 21, 2008 that due to label and legal issues they will not be able to release an official TGT album. Ginuwine is the founder and CEO of LoveSong Incorporated, after completing his contract with 550 Music/Epic. Ginuwine announced on his Myspace blog on August 21, 2008 that he signed a major label deal with Notifi Records/Warner Brothers.
Break
Ginuwine Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Never feel there's no one there who cares for you
When every door seems closed
Mine is open wide for you
I'll give you strength
Restore your faith
I'm the one who'll be around if it falls down
I'll be there if you break
I'll be there if you crumble
Come to you if you come undone
Catch you if you stumble
I'll do what it takes
To put the pieces back in place
If you break
Never feel ashamed
Never feel it's weak
If you should reach for me
When you're chained by the pain
I'll be there to set you free
I'll give you love
I'll lift you up
I'm the one who'll be around if it all falls down
I will hold you
I'll be there if you break
I'll be there if you crumble
Come to you if you come undone
Catch you if you stumble
I'll do what it takes
To put the pieces back in place
If you break
But if there comes a time
When I might need someone
Will you be there
Say you'll be there
I'll be there if you break
I'll be there if you crumble
Come to you if you come undone
Catch you if you stumble
I'll do what it takes
To put the pieces back in place
If you break
Ah, ah
If you break
If you break
I promise I'll be right there
Don't worry
I love you
If you break
In Ginuwine's song Break, the singer is expressing his endless love and devotion to someone, assuring them that he'll always be there when they need him, especially during their moments of weakness, struggles, and pain. He assures them that they can always turn to him for comfort, strength, and support, regardless of the situation, as he'll never let them face their fears and uncertainties alone. To emphasize the point of his unwavering love, he reassures them that they have nothing to be ashamed of, nothing to worry about, and nothing to hide β they can always come to him for help, anytime, anywhere.
The opening lines of the song express that the person in question must never feel alone, even if every door seems to be closing. Ginuwine assures them that his own door will always be open for them, no matter what the circumstances are. He promises to give them strength, restore their faith, and be the one to hold them up whenever they fall down. The bridge of the song represents the singer's willingness to do whatever it takes to put back the pieces in place, to help the person cope with their difficult situation.
The chorus of the song repeats the promise of continuous support when needed, regardless of the struggle. He promises to provide a shoulder to lean on, a hand to catch them if they stumble, and to be present if they break, crumble, or come undone. Even if they reach out for his help because they're chained by pain, he'll set them free with his love and care.
In the last verse, Ginuwine turns the tables and asks for the same support in return. He wonders if the person will be around when he needs someone to lean on, someone to support him, and someone to hold onto when he needs someone.
Overall, Ginuwine's Break is a powerful testament of unconditional love, care, and support, encouraging people never to give up on their struggles and always seek help when needed.
