I had a great time last night hanging out with R&B crooner Robert “R.L” Huggar member of the group Next. The private dinner party was held at Uptown Lounge and given by his beautiful longtime girlfriend Lena Chenier. It was filled with his close friends,manager,and family. He received a blingy gold watch from his longtime manager/best friend Lance Kragness.I was not aware that R.L. was a songwriter too. He has written songs for Jaheim, Lloyd, and so many others. I loved the song Wifey and use to hand dance to that song all the time. Even Lloyd stopped by to wish him well!

Cheers, love my Josefa Laguna flower!

We had a great dinner that consisted of, Crab cake basil anglaise,gumbo shots, salad, brandied filet mignon, Creamy sherry tilapia and for dessert blue velvet cake. Now you guys see why I cant loose weight. Everything was really tasty! The chef for the night was Cynthia Bailey who’s co owner of Uptown Lounge. She looked very haute to be a chef lol. If I was cooking meals, I wanna look like that too ha! Cynthia also gave R.L. one of her favorite signature drinks, that looked tasty!

cokored 0004 Pink Spotlight Interview:Coko!

 TalkingWithTami.com: Coko, I would love to know what youve been up to for the past couple of years? For the past couple of years I have been busy.

 

I’ve gotten married and had another baby, then released a Grammy nominated

gospel project titled “Grateful” and now released “A Coko

Christmas.”

 Pink Spotlight Interview:Coko!  TalkingWithTami.com: Can you tell me how you balance a family and career,

whats your secret recipe? It can be hard at times but communication is key.

When I’m home I try to spend as much time as possible with my family. My

husband is on the road more than I am so quality time is key. 

 

TalkingwithTami.com: Tell me what made you want to do a Christmas Cd(A Coko

Christmas)? My label thought it would be a good idea and a nice set up to

the next record I have coming out.  

TalkingWithTami..com: I love mommies who include their children in their

business! I heard your youngest son Sir Jalen on one of your songs. How many

kids do you have and are any singers? I have 2 boys Sir Jalen is 5 and

Master Jazz is 13. They both are really good singers. My mom and I work with

them all the time. Pink Spotlight Interview:Coko!  

TalkingWithTami.com: Give the readers some good advice if they want to start

out in a group or just want a solo singing career? Be focused and make

sure this what you really want to do. It’s a lot of hard work and

dedication. Make sure you have great management, attorney’s and

accountants.

But most of all stay on top of your business yourself….stay hands on!

Educate yourself…I can keep going but I’ll stop…lol!!!
