Chanté Moore
Chanté Torrane Moore (born February 17, 1967 in San Francisco, California) is an American jazz and R&B singer.
Born to a gospel minister, she grew up singing in the church and was heavily influenced by the music of George Duke and Lee Ritenour. While in high school, she decided to make a career of singing. She was a successful beauty pageant contestant and model when she was discovered by the late Louil Silas at 22, a record executive who had started his own label, Silas Records, then distributed by MCA.
From 17 November 1997 - 2000 she was married to Kadeem Hardison, and they have daughter Sophia Hardison (born 96 or 97). On 1 January 2002 she married Kenny Lattimore and they had son Kenny on 10 April 2003.
Moore has recorded several hit records, including "Love's Taken Over", "Its Alright", "I'm What You Need", "Old School Lovin", and "Free" (a cover of a Deniece Williams song). Moore has recorded a song with supergroup Boyz II Men for the "How Stella Got Her Groove Back" soundtrack titled "You Home Is In My Heart". Moore was also featured on the soundtrack of Waiting to Exhale in 1995 with the song "Wey U," which also shows off her singing ability. Once married to actor Kadeem Hardison, she is currently married to singer Kenny Lattimore. The two are currently a duet act on Jive Records, where they remade Minnie Riperton and Peabo Bryson's 70's soul hit "Here We Go" on their album, Things That Lovers Do. This also shows off her vocal range and does not go unnoticed by music reviewer Tracy E. Hopkins at Barnes and Noble who remarks how this record "showcases Moore's Minnie Riperton–reminiscent pipes"...
