What's Up. Today's song is Pony by Ginuwine.
Ginuwine is the stage name for Elgin Baylor Lumpkin whose been active since 1991. He started his career as part of the collective called Swing Mob where he met and worked with some other influential rap artists. The collective eventually folded, but he continued to collaborate with some of those people to create his debut album in 1996. This song was the first single from that album, but it keeps popping back up every couple years from being used for pop culture. On his own he's done eight albums so far. In 2007 he also teamed up with two singers named Tyrese and Tank to form TGT. As a group they were signed in 2012 and released an album in 2013. He's also done a little bit of acting throughout his career, but music is his main thing.
This is supposed to be a song that drives us nuts. Going with older stuff was Sammy with Yellow Submarine by The Beatles, and my mom with Achy Breaky Heart by Billy Ray Cyrus. Then more modern was Will with Time To Win by Down With Webster, Anna choosing Look What You Made Me Do by Taylor Swift, and my grandma picking Baby by Justin Bieber featuring Ludacris.
Peace.
