Early life

[edit]

Chanté Torrane Moore was born on February 17, 1967, in San Francisco, California, to Christian Evangelist parents Larry Moore, a minister, and Virginia Moore.[2] She is the younger sister of LaTendre Moore and Kelvin Gomillion.[2] Initially raised in San Francisco, the family moved to San Diego when Moore was twelve years old.[3] Rooted in gospel music, she grew up singing in church and later joined the choir.[2] Heavily influenced by the music of George Duke and Lee Ritenour,[4] Moore enjoyed singing from an early age, but her ambitions were initially held back by her family, in which all members sang or played instruments or even had careers as professional musicians.[3]

At the age of 14, Moore began participating in beauty pageants.[3] Through her participation in the Miss Bronze America contest, she met Kiki Shepard and her mother, who took her under their wings and persuaded her to pursue a modeling career during her highschool years,[3] though her height prevented Moore from pursuing a career as a professional model later on.[3] It wasn't until a teacher asked her, at the age of 16, to take on the lead role of Dorothy in a college production of the musical The Wiz that her family recognized her singing talent and she felt confident enough to consider a career as a musician.[3] Motivated by her then-boyfriend, she began writing songs and recording demos.[5] Through Darryl Sutton,[3] founder of the gospel/hip-hop label Reap Records,[6] Moore came into contact with talent manager Benny Medina's assistant, who in turn connected her with Medina.[3]

Career

[edit]

1986–1995: Debut album Precious, breakthrough and A Love Supreme

[edit]

Impressed by her demo,[3] Medina signed Moore to Warner Bros. Records at the age of 19.[5] He enlisted Jay King to work with her and though they recorded an entire album in Sacramento,[3] titled Listen to My Song,[7] for the label, the project was shelved late into the production and Moore was eventually dropped.[8] After a Los Angeles stage production with singer El DeBarge, his manager Fred Moultrie offered Moore to represent her after she had asked him if he could recommend her.[3] With a condensed Listen to My Song serving as her demo, he pitched her to various record labels, including LaFace Records and MCA Records.[3] In February 1991,[9] Moore signed with MCA through executive Louis Silas, Jr.'s newly founded Silas Records, a joint venture with MCA, after A&R director Madeleine Randolph had presented him several demos from her Listen to My Song sessions.[9] Silas Records' first signee,[9] she immediately began recording her solo debut album.

In October 1991, "Candlelight and You," a duet which Moore had recorded with R&B singer Keith Washington for her debut was placed on the MCA-produced soundtrack for the comedy film House Party 2.[9] On September 29, 1992, Silas Records released Moore's debut album, Precious.[10] The album featured production from Simon Law, Bebe Winans, George Duke, among others, and peaked at number one-hundred and one on the U.S. Billboard 200 albums chart.[11] The first single, "Love's Taken Over" peaked at number eighty-six and number thirteen on the Billboard Hot 100[12] and R&B Singles charts, respectively.[13] The album's second single, It's Alright failed to make impact on the Billboard Hot 100, however, peaking at number thirteen on the R&B charts.[13] More singles from Precious were released in 1993, including "As If We Never Met" and "Who Do I Turn To?". The album was certified gold by the RIAA on November 14, 1994.[14]

On November 15, 1994, Moore released her second album A Love Supreme which peaked at sixty-four on the Billboard 200 albums chart.[11] Moore was one of the co-executive producers of the album and co-wrote eight of its songs, along with Fred Moultrie. The album's first single, "Old School Lovin'", peaked at number nineteen on the R&B chart, marking her third top 20 R&B song.[13] Three more songs were released from the album: "This Time" (1994), "I'm What You Need" (1995) and "Free/Sail On" (1995). In 1995, Moore appeared on the soundtrack to the hit film Waiting to Exhale and featured on five tracks, performing a solo on "Wey U," and adding backing vocals on the hit single, "Count On Me."

1996–2002: This Moment Is Mine and Exposed

[edit]

In 1998, Moore collaborated with Boyz II Men on the song "Your Home Is In My Heart" from the soundtrack to the romantic comedy-drama film How Stella Got Her Groove Back (1998). Released the album soundtrack's second single,[15] it charted in Australia and the Netherlands.[16] In 1999, she released her third album This Moment Is Mine. Moore worked with duo Jimmy Jam & Terry Lewis on most of the album's material, while additional production was provided by Rodney Jerkins, Jermaine Dupri, and Simon Law. This Moment Is Mine was met with positive reviews,[17] and peaked at number 31 on the US Billboard 200 and number seven on the Top R&B/Hip-Hop Albums chart, becoming Moore's first top ten entry on the chart.[18] The album's lead single "Chanté's Got a Man," written for then-husband Kadeem Hardison, became a crossover success and scored Moore her first top ten hit on the US Billboard Hot 100 chart. The song later reached Gold status in the United States.[18]

Just 18 months after This Moment Is Mine, MCA released Moore's fourth studio album Exposed in November 2000. While the singer considered the album a continuation of "Chanté's Got a Man," it marked a musical shift for her, taking her sound further into the contemporary R&B and urban pop genres, with Jermaine Dupri taking of executive producer duties.[19] Although MCA had hoped the album would mark Moore's across-the-board breakthrough,[19] it charted lower than its predecessor, peaking at number 10 on the US Top R&B/Hip-Hop Albums chart. Lead single "Straight Up" however, became her highest-charting international success yet, reaching the top twenty in Belgium and the United Kingdom.[20] Promotion of the album's second single "Bitter" was interlinked with "Contagious," a 2001 collaboration with R. Kelly and The Isley Brothers. It became a top 20 hit on the US Billboard Hot 100 and won the Soul Train Music Award for Best R&B/Soul Single – Group, Band or Duo.
