R. L. Huggar
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
R.L. Huggar (born Robert Lavelle Huggar April 2, 1977) in Minneapolis, MN is an African-American R&B singer most noted for being the frontman for the R&B group Next. And during mid-2002, Huggar released his only solo album, RL: Ements. RL first distinguished himself outside of NEXT with his duet with Deborah Cox on the heart-wrenching "We Can't Be Friends". RL followed up that effort with a star-turn on "Best Man" the super-group track from the The Best Man (1999) soundtrack which also featured Ginuwine, Tyrese & Case. By the time RL's Rev. Greenish-styled "Good Love" (The Brothers soundtrack) and his hook to 'Pac's "Until the End of Time" were released, it was clear that he had created and artistic persona distinct and separate from Next. RL:Ements is RL's debut solo project for Clive Davis' still burgeoning J Records label; the lead single "Got Me a Model". It's 2006 and NEXT is back! Back with a new label, Music World Ent, new music and a new Swagger!!
