I can't remember anything she has sung

Love's Taken Over
It's Alright
Candlelight and You w Keith Washington
Old School Lovin
I'm What You Need
Chante's Got a Man
Straight Up
Bitter

Do you remember her duet with El Debarge You Know What I
Like from his 1991 In the Storm Album?

Her face kind of creeps me out.

Yeah, I don't know half those songs

scriptgirl said:

Nah, middle of the road "star".

Chante never broke out big as some of her contemporaries
like Mary J.Blige,Monica,Brandy,or Deborah Cox but she's
silky smooth and has put out some good product.
My favorite cd by her is her second cd A Love Supreme.
That was probably her most complete cd. I know a lot of
people really dig her first as well. I've been fortunate
to see her live once.

Was she a "major artist"? No, I don't think so. But her first two albums (especially her first) are excellent, and I loved her rendition of "Inside My Love" from the New York Undercover soundtrack.

But I don't understand what is meant by "major artist". Top-40, platinum, Beyonce-crossover shit, no way. She was well respected in the R&B community in the early and mid-90s, her songs was more Quiet Storm/Midnight Love/Smooth Jazz oriented

By major artist, I mean wide spread acclaim, sold out shows, magazine covers, major hits, mass name recognition

Those first two r&b hits are ace.

Her sound is very generic

scriptgirl said:

Chante NEVER had crossover pop mainstream success. R&B Quiet Storm tracks are her sell points.

Has she released anything lately?

She doesn't record anymore?

phunkdaddy said:

I'll have to look it up on YT.

scriptgirl said:

She just released an album in 2008 called Love the Woman and
a couple of duet cd's with her husband prior to that.

Who's her old man?

scriptgirl said:

Kenny Lattimore

Wow you really have been ignoring Chante.

Certain people never make it into my consciousness

I only really know Straight Up which I love (mainly cos of the very old school So So Def production though)

Scriptgirl,I know you're familiar with this song

90s R&B Duet of the day: "You Know What I Like" by El DeBarge and Chante Moore (1991)

I'm a fan of Chante Moore.Her first two albums are EXCELLENT,especially the second album 'A Love Supreme'.For the most part,she does classy,sophisticated Quiet Storm music,which is probably why she never became as 'big' as other R&B divas who make music that appeals to youngsters.Our local quiet storm station plays her music alot,but I never hear her songs on regular R&B stations.

Prince has a thing for Chante,too He mentions her in his song "Ripogodazippa" and she sings backup vocals on his remake of "La La Means I Love You".

scriptgirl said:

She is married to R&B singer Kenny Lattimore.They recorded an album together.

scriptgirl said:

Her latest CD 'Love The Woman' was released in 2008,if I'm not mistaken.

This is one of my favorites: "Old School Lovin" by Chante Moore (1994)

KeithyT said:

I didn't like it when she started working with Jermaine Dupri.The third album was disappointing,imo.

Love Chante Moore. I almost wish she never married Kenny because that's when both of their music slowed but glad they're happy.
