Chanté Moore Talks New Man, New album and Playing Lead in Stage Play

Singer Chante Moore is 49

*Chanté Moore sat-down with Rolling Out during a tour stop for Je’Caryous Johnson’s newest play to discuss her role in the production, her new man, being in love and her new music.

The play is a follow-up to “Married But Single” titled “Married But Single Too,” which explores “relationships and how to balance your love life and work at the same time,” the petite R&B powerhouse says. “I play Denise Winters, the main character’s manager. I am trying to invigorate him to place all the passions that he has in a music in his life.”

“I love working on new aspects. I love that it’s a live audience. It’s a lot of fun working with LisaRaye McCoy, Bill Bellamy, Carl Payne, Tony Grant and La’Myia Good. All of us are having a good time,” Moore, 49, shares.

She just released her seventh studio album, The Rise of the Phoenix, on her own label, CM7 Records.

“I’m more excited by this record than I have been in a really long time,” she admits to Rolling Out.

Tell us about your new music project and single, “Real One.”
Lil Ronnie, who goes by @beats4thestars on Instagram, has helped us put this record together. I am so proud of it. I’m more excited by this record than I have been in a really long time. It’s my seventh solo album. It’s 2017. My birthday just passed, 2/17. We just did a video that will be out really soon. I am in love and I wrote about it. After six years of being single, I got a man … for real.

My single “Real One” is out right now. It’s co-written by me and Lil Ronnie.

My album is about love, travel and relationships. It’s titled The Rise of the Phoenix and it’s indicative of how I feel right now, emerging from the ashes and everything in my life, positive and negative. I am not the same girl I was 20 years ago. I am learning how to be the best me. I make mistakes. All things work together for my good. I am glad to be clear about that. The album gives you insight into my world.

So you have a man. How is it starting a new relationship?
What I love is since I became single six years ago, I was ready to be single. It wasn’t the kind of divorce where you are like arrrggghhhh! Or, I don’t want to love ever again. I really didn’t feel like that. I felt like it was time to just let go. All the other times, I was looking for the one. I was happily single and content. Now that love has found me, I have to embrace it because I feel like I am ready for it. I took the time to just be me and not worry about whether love was going to find me again or not.

Is your current beau ‘the one’?
He’s the right one for me when he’s in my space and he makes me happy. He is loyal, kind, faithful and makes me feel beautiful. He makes me feel loved and we’re friends. That’s important, too.
