Singer Ginuwine and retired rapper Sole are focused on raising their four daughters Ginel, Kayah, Story and Dream.In the video you’re about to see, the husband and wife team talk about their philanthropic ventures,and instilling values of self-worth in their four daughters.
WATCH NOW
BCK says:Apparently, Ginuwine may have a son as well. According to one of BCK readers(Lil’ Kunta), Ginuwine and Sole have two daughters together named Story(b. March 01) & Dream(b. 1 Nov 02). Ginuwine has a son from a previous relationship named Elgin Jr; Sole has two daughters from a previous relationship named DeJan(91) and Cypress(94). In total the couple have five children.
I didn’t know they had kids. That’s great. I have a Caya to. I bet they are beautiful. Their parents are.
Doesn’t Ginuwine also have a son named Elgin,Jr.?
He does have a son, Elgin Jr. I went to school with him.
Knowitall@ I was thinking the same thing. He does have a son that lives here in Maryland. It strange that he didn’t mention him. They were really close. His Maryland home is a couple of miles from where I live.
Yea I used to be in the same class and good friends with his son.
I thought they only has 2 girls together
Dream and Story is by Elgine
Her other 2 daughter are by someone else?
You’re right, Joy. Sole already had two daughter prior to meeting Ginuwine. I wonder why no mention’s made of his son,either?
Really nice interview.I have been a fan of both Ginuwine and Sole for years now and its good to see that their marriage is still going strong and that they are giving back to their community.The names of Sole’s daughters are De’jan Cypress,Story and Dream.
In less she gave bith to 2 more little girl and just no realizing it!
Cause De’jan and Cypress are her oldest daughters but BCK has 2 different names posted!
G seemed outta it in ths interview.
Did they move back to MD or are in ATL?
Sole is pretty.
…also Sole’s said 4 girls, G said nada. I hope Sole is welcoming 2 G;s son.
I wonder how Sole stands G’s sex songs with her tryna live a good Christian life now.
G has son Elgin(1992) w his ex girlfriend.
Sole (Tonya Johnston) has 2 daughters from her ex.
Together they have daughters
Story (29 March 01) & Dream Sarae Lumpkin(1 November 02)
Sole’s daugh r De’jan (9 March 1991) & Cypress (9 January 1994).
Elgin has another daughter in the Chicago area that he’s not claiming. Looks just like him and she’s about 16-17 years old.
He has another son as well that basically the same age I went to school with him.
In the orginal post……BCK posted 2 different girl names from Sole to oldest daughters name!
Hey
Pls correct the post. There is no Ginel or Kayah.
G’s kids are Elgin Jr (92), daughters Story(March 01) & Dream(1 Nov 02).
Sole’s kids are 4 girls: De’Jan, Cypress, Story, Dream.
Some websites have Ginuwine listed as father to not only Elgin but also Ginel French and Tiffany Lyles from previous relationships.
That what I am saying,what if they had other kids we didn’t no about! I mean it ain’t like they are in the spotlight! Not trying to sound mean!
I’m so confused!
I dont know how many kids they have Im just happy to see them make it work!
YEP ITS DEJAN,CYPRESS,STORY,DREAM GINEL N KAYAH IS FAKE AND HE DOES HAVE A SON NAME ELGIN WHOS LIKE 17-18 NOW ANYWAY THIS IS GOOD CUZ BOTH CAREERS ARE DEAD NOW…
Ginuwine has 6 children of his own, and sole has 2 from a previous relationship….8 kids in total
Actually you are all wrong. Their children’s names are Tiffany, Little Elgin, Ginel, Tahjere,Story, Dream, Dejan and Cypress. he is heck of a dad to ALL of his children and Sole is an excellent mom. They both are very happy and are BOTH striving to be good christian parents. Their careers ARE NOT dead, but are much better in Christ. they both are very real and genuine loving people. No one should judge what you do not know. What the latest gossip says about them and others in their industry are NOT the gospel. I pray that everyone would be mindful that celebrities are human too! They have children who can access the internet and be very hurt by the garbage and lies that people, who have NO idea who they are for real, makes in their moments of reading what they believe is truth.
If I were you, I would follow the example of those two and attempt to know the Lord Jesus for yourselves, then you would have more to do than post about people who do not know you exist and comment on what YOU think their lives are….and IS NOT!
Respectfully posted AND God Bless…..
and before anyone comment on whether I know them….YES, I do, very well. and this is why I am saddened by the negative comments of people whom I know personally and are very special to me and my family, as I am they feel the same about me and my family. They are wonderful. The two of them AND ALL of their beautiful children, whom Sole have much love for and welcomes without bias as her own children and Elgin is the same with ALL of his children including the two that are not BIOLOGICALLY his , but love and care for as his blood. In this videoo many people missed the point. Elgin did not omit his other children…the question was how do they raise the ones that LIVE with them. That so happens to be the the four girls spoken of. They have ALL of their children all of the time. I am new to this site and so happened to come across one about someone that I know personally. I think that it is wonderful that BCK showcases the accomplishments of black celebrities and honor them by showing off their beautiful babies! I would just admonish posters to be cognizant of the things you post about them. You never know how what you post could negatively impact the celebrities themselves and their children who may happen upon such posts.
Thank U BCK for the work that you do! Stay godly and continue to represent Christ in your posts fellow christians.
Reespectfully posted and God Bless……..
Caitlynn P, kudos to you for your response. I agree with almost everything you wrote. I actually don’t know how I stumbled upon this website, but I do know Elgin and Tonya personally as well. One thing that is just really sad and pathetic about the majority of these posts is the fact that people are more interested in finding out how many kids they have than they are about the great community service project that the two of them were promoting. How shallow! That really shows alot about character. And to be honest I feel it is really quite disrespectful to be discussing their children. What business is it of anyone on this site to know how many kids they have or what their names, ages, and birthdays are?? Are you raising them or supporting them? It makes no sense to be speculating about the lives of people you don’t know. It doesn’t matter if they are celebrities. It’s also funny that I recognize one poster that I already addressed on MyVoiceDC and YouTube regarding Elgin and Tonya. I see you’re all over the net with your judgmental remarks and misinformation.
I certainly don’t know either of them, but they were both young at one point & not living a Christian life and made mistakes. They have beautiful children and I commend both of them for accepting the others’ kids because you have too if you claim to love the person. Obviously Sole’ (excuse me Tonya), had 2 girls before they hooked up & she was young (like 17), and Ginuwine did what a lot of guys do, they get with different girls so don’t be surprised if it produces children (sex does that you know) and a lot of girls lie about being on the pill and condoms do break.
All that matters NOW is that he is a devoted husband and father and it’s very attractive for a guy to grow into a GAM (grown ass man)!
I hope their union will last and they will continue to instill good values in their children. I’ve seen the 4 girls and they are simply beautiful. It’s just hard to imagine both of them having kids and esp. some of them being teenagers because Ginuwine and his wife still look too young to have them.
Congrats on overcoming adversity and heartache of your parents death and seeking the Lord. I’m impressed by your video Last Chance. It’s hot and tasteful without you having to climb all over anybody. Beautiful song. Let these fools know what a grown man does…Play it like a grown man ought to!!!!!!!!
I know his son ELgin he attends the smae school as me (SurrattsVille High School.)
I know cypress. She was in my 6th grade class at from the heart christian school in maryland. Her and her other sisters still go to that school.
Leave those people alone go find your baby daddy, they are happy so that is all that matters. Don’t worry about how many kids they got unlike most of you at least they can take care of them. GET A LIFE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
He has a daughter Tiffany Lyles who i went to high school with, i think thats his first born
I go 2 skool wit genuwines kids he got 4 daugters sum on da side 2 but dere names are Dejan: 11th grade Cypress: 8th grade Story: 2nd grade
Dream 1st grade n Genuwine has 2 sons Tajai: 3rd grade and Elgin Jr: i think 11 or 12th
I am so jealous,i’ve been in love with G since i was 13.
Is it me or does the math not add up? They said 4 daughters, then they said she has two (different names) from a previous relationship and then his son. I’m counting 7 unless Kaya and Ginel are the same as Dejan and Cypress.
WHY IS EVERYONE SO WORRIED ABOUT HIS KIDS AND HOW MANY HE DO OR DONT HAVE HE MAY HAVE SOME ON THE SIDE SO WHAT KNOW ONES PERFECT HE IS HUMAN JUST LIKE EVERYONE IN THE WORLD I HOPE G READS THIS LOVE YOU TELL TONYA HAPPY MOTHERS DAY
I actually met Ginuwine’s Dad back in 96′ when I visited his home in Washington, DC (District Heights). That was an experience i will never forget. Ginuwine wasn’t there but his cherry red BMW with a club on the steering wheel was in the driveway. It was amazing to see all the pictures of Ginuwine when he was a young boy and his Dad was so nice, down to earth and very proud of his son. At the time he was dating a good friend of mine from college UNC her name was Denise Smith. At the time she had pictures of her and his small son Elgin. We actually lost touch after she left school to return to Flint, Michigan (her hometown), but I remebered she was real sick right before she left and thought she may be pregnant. I have always wondered if she was one of his mysterious baby mommas…I really would love to know - Their son/ or daughter would have to be at least 13.
Denise did have his daughter… she now lives in NC. She used to be my neighbor. He sends child support but doens’t see his daughter.
i know his son elgin jr. he just graduated from my school. he is cool. he doesnt let the fact the his father is famous effect him or his life. We just hang out like its not nothing and when someone brings up his dad i think he does not like it very much.
angel & shay; my nephew actually goes to surratsville w/ his son as well…and i always wondered did having a famous father affect him. B/c in the dmv (dc,md,va) area we don’t really trip off someone having a famous parent or a famous family member, it doesn’t really matter, and i think that’s why ginuwine chose to let his kids live and go to school here, and also b/c this is where he’s from, i think here and atl are probably the most normalcy they could feel!
im 18 born jan 30 1991
im ginuwine son.
be on the lookout for me on ur tv screens in movie screens in the future.
God!!i’ve been in love with G since i 1st saw him.i must have been something like 8 or 9.since his album ‘the senior’ i stopped tryin to find out what he does coz i thought what would it bring me?i was so shocked to find out he got married&got kidz!
