Interscope (2005–2006) Robert Lavelle Huggar, better known by his initials RL, is an American singer and songwriter who gained fame as the lead singer of the R&B group Next.

RL first distinguished himself outside of Next with his duet with Deborah Cox on the song "We Can't Be Friends" as well as other feature projects.

By the time RL's soulful "Good Love" (from The Brothers movie soundtrack) and his hook to 2Pac's Until the end of Time were released, he had created an artistic persona distinct and separate from Next.

It spawned the singles "Got Me a Model" (featuring Erick Sermon) and "Good Man".
