Myron Avant (born April 26, 1978), better known simply as Avant is a multi-platinum American R&B singer. Avant is a relative to the famed R&B singer, R. Kelly, who is his cousin. In the past five years, he had a son, Chase, who was born c. 2002.

A graduate of the Cleveland School of the Arts in 1995 where he majored in theater, he is best known for hits such as "Separated" (the remix to which features Kelly Rowland), "My First Love," which one version features Ketara Wyatt, and "Read Your Mind" (the remix to which features Snoop Dogg on the extended promo vinyl). He was featured in the remix to the Lloyd Banks song "Karma" from the 2004 album The Hunger for More, and has also had a cameo appearance in the 2004 feature film BarberShop 2: Back in Business.

He also did a remix of The Pussycat Dolls song "Stickwitu." He stated that he refused to cooperate with The Pussycat Dolls at first until they offered him a better contract and to perform it and sing his way for a better single. In the past five years, he had a son, Chase, who was born c. 2002. Avant has also appeared on the Oxygen Network reality TV show Janice Dickinson Modeling Agency when he asked Janice to have models dance with him during the release party of the album Director.

Avant has recently left Geffen Records and signed with Capitol Records. His new single, "When It Hurts", has reached number 18 on the US R&B/Hip-Hop charts. His self-titled fifth album, Avant, is set to be released on December 9, 2008.
