About BeBe Winans

"You could take away the singing, and I am fine. But don't' take away my gift of writing. It is the best way I can relate and express what I am feeling and what I am going through."

Born Sept. 17, 1962, in Detroit

Gospel singer BeBe Winans kicked off his solo career in 1997 with his self-titled debut release. The album featured the singles "In Harm's Way," "Thank You" and the international crossover hit, "I Wanna Be The Only One," which features Eternal. Album reached No. 36 on the Billboard Top R&B/Hip-Hop Albums chart.
