***Update: BEFORE WE GET STARTED WE WANNA MAKE IT CLEAR THAT R.L. DID NOT ATTEMPT SUICIDE BECAUSE HIS THEN-WIFE CHEATED ON HIM…THOSE ARE TWO TOTALLY SEPARATE INCIDENTS…okay now let’s dig into this story…*
Remember the 90s/early 2000’s group, Next? The group whose joints, “Wifey” and “Too Close” are still played at every wedding reception, family gathering and grown folks clubs to this day (“Butta Love” is one of my favorite Next jams though). Well Next group member, R.L. (also known for his classic duet with Debra Cox, “We Can’t Be Friends”) opened up about some of the struggles he’s endured, two of them being the time he tried to commit suicide and and also the time his wife cheated on him.
