REALITY FAB: Ginuwine, His Wife Solé, & Kids Set For REALITY TV

Jun 08 | by Natasha

Why am I secretly so excited about this? Ginuwine is ready for a comeback. And he's going the tried and somewhat true route of reality tv.

Elgin Lumpkin is on the road to being known again, all while raising his kids and being a husband to wife Solé. Check out the extended trailer of Ginuwine and Solé's new reality show set for cable boxes near you....

Solé, the "woman of God" former singer whose real name is Tanya Lumpkin, is the other focus of this "New Beginning" reality show. And we'll see her raising the kids and being a supportive wife.

Ginuwine is trying to revive his career and make the new cats aware of his talent and that he's "the guy who brought dancing back." And he's also showing how he survives in a house full of women where he's the sole male trying to hold it down.

The couple is raising a brood of kids together: Ginuwine and Sole’s two daughters together Dream,8 and Story,10. Cypress,16, and De’jan,19 are Solé's daughters from a previous relationship. And Elgin,18, is Ginuwine's son from a previous relationship. And most are seen on the show. Peep the close to 9-minute trailer:

No word on which network is picking it up. But when one does, will you be watching?

For all the people that ask how can he afford his house... Please go to RIAA.com and see how many platinum and gold albums and singles he has. That will answer that question. I'm gonna watch the show!

I really didnt realize the

I really didnt realize the many hits Ginuwine has created over the years. I enjoyed the soundtrack and the trailer. I'm not a fan of reality tv. However, if i were to watch the boobtube; i would definently watch this show. I enjoy viewing positive shows depicting a strong black modern families. Congratulations to The Lumpkins.

I I'll watch the show seems

I I'll watch the show seems interesting. But I got a question. How can he afford that house? Cause I know it's not off of his alumb sales. I only remember him being in one movie show its not from his acting career. When was the last time he did a major tour or a world tour cause I can't recall. The royalities, licensing and publishing of his song. Must be paying off. But i use to love me some ginuwine i meant ginufine. www.isiahhurts.webs.com

If he owned all his

If he owned all his publishing he's still getting a nice check. I dont know if people are still buying his records...or playing his songs on radio. But "One Shot" was played heavily last year I think so...but I wish him and the fam luck. I like some of his music

I'd watch it but you know it will not be picked up...yall know networks don't want positive images! They keep approving the trash (Single Ladies, etc). I hope this gets picked up...WeTv is trying to mess with the black folks maybe they'll get it. OWN needs some shows, haha

I don't generally like

I don't generally like reality TV and there are too many of them on the air but I will make an exception for this one. It will be nice seeing a beautiful, upwardly mobile African American family on television again. Both parents in the home only makes it sweeter.

Not surprised, people don't

Not surprised, people don't think dark-skinned Latinos are real Latino, to the general public and white Latinos in particular, we are colored people who happened to speak Spanish left over from slavery days.

Too many reality shows, but I think this one will be a lot more positive than the others. It seems like it would be on the same vibe of Family Crews.

Sorry to disappoint you. I

Sorry to disappoint you. I don't feel that way. I'm looking forward to watch this reality fab. When I did dream about becoming a parent it consisted of a husband, wife and 5 children; all girls. Yes I planned on loving up my husband as much and as often as possible; lol. It's a plus to see a good looking couple that is successful, appear to be down to earth and still together after being in that type of industry. I will definitely watch it. You can only watch so much of the negative spotlight that these broadcast networks bring into our households. Started making me wonder is this the norm in everyday life. I am looking forward to watching how they hold down their family.
