By the time Ginuwine...the Bachelor was released, Ginuwine was already well on his way to becoming R&B 's next big thing -- thanks mainly to the ferocious word of mouth his lead single, a cover of Prince 's 'When Doves Cry,' perpetuated. Make no mistake, this was the album that indeed started it all for the young R&B sensation, catapulting him from relative obscurity to the limelight in less time than most of his contemporaries. Led by the ferocious chart-topping opener 'Pony,' Ginuwine not only became a staple for commercial R&B radio, but he upped the sexual reference ante for many up-and-coming male singers such as Dru Hill , Blackstreet , and such established producers as R. Kelly . Combining the influences of funk , quiet storm , soul , and even a tad bit of electro , Ginuwine effortlessly displays not only a powerful voice, but sharp songwriting and production skills. Ginuwine...the Bachelor was a promising debut and only a slight notion of great things to come. ~ Rob Theakston, All Music Guide
