Pony by Ginuwine Song Info
"Pony" is the debut single of American singer Ginuwine, released as a single from his first album, "The Bachelor" in 1996. Ginuwine co-wrote the song with Swing Mob associates Static Major and Timbaland; the latter is also the producer. "Pony" was Timbaland's breakthrough as a producer. Timbaland's production was unique among R&B releases of the day: "Pony"'s instrumentation features a start-stop rhythm pattern similar to drum and bass music, a bassline and melody formed by vocoded vocal samples, and a cartoon slide whistle. The song peaked at number one on the Billboard Hot R&B/Hip-Hop Songs chart for two weeks from November 16, 1996, to November 30, 1996, and reached number six on Billboard's Hot 100 on November 23, 1996.
