Biography

Charles Edward Hugo (born February 24, 1974) is an American record producer. He was one half of the production duo the Neptunes, which he formed alongside Pharrell Williams in 1992. His production work with the duo has been credited on three decades of pop, contemporary R&B, and hip-hop releases. He was also a member of the band N.E.R.D., alongside Williams and Shay Haley, and co-founded the record label Star Trak Entertainment with Williams in 2001. In contrast to Williams, Hugo does not perform vocals on records.
