Chante Moore y Eric Roberson

Born the daughter of a gospel minister, Chante Moore was raised on a solid diet of George Duke and Lee Ritenour. Having been a beauty pageant contestant and model in her younger years, by the age of 22 she had been discovered by MCA Records exec Louil Silas, who subsequently singed her to Silas Records. The singer’s musical debut came singing backup for R&B diva and Moore’s idol Toni Braxton. Moore subsequently featured on El DeBarge’s hit single “You Know What I Like” ahead of releasing her debut album “Precious” in 1992. Whilst the album only reached No. 101 on the Billboard 200, the album’s singles “Love’s Taken Over”, “It’s Alright”, “Who Do I Turn To”, and “As If We Never Met” all charted within the R&B Charts Top 40 significantly raising Moore's profile.

Two years later the singer issued her sophomore album “A Love Supreme” which charted at No. 64 on the Billboard 200. Moore subsequently recorded “Your Home Is in My Heart” with Boyz II Men for the “How Stella Got Her Groove Back" soundtrack, as well as featuring on the American Music Award-winning soundtrack for the 1995 film “Waiting to Exhale”. Following the release of her highest-charting album to date, 1999’s “This Moment Is Mine” Moore was nominated for the Soul Train Music Award for Single of the Year alongside Whitney Houston, Mariah Carey, and Lauryn Hill. Two years later she would win the Soul Train Music Award for Best R&B/Soul Single for her song “Contagious” featuring the Isley Brothers.

The Billboard No. 50 charting album “Exposed” appeared in 2000 after which Moore moved to Arista Records to release a duet album with partner Kenny Lattimore entitled “Things That Lovers Do”. The record proved her most successful to date peaking at No. 3 on the Billboard R&B Charts and spawned the follow-up duet album “Uncovered/Covered” in 2006. A year later the singer performed in the stage production of “By Any Means Necessary”, before signing a new solo contract with Peak Records. Moore’s fifth full-length “Love the Woman” was released in June 2008. Led by the single “Ain’t Supposed to Be This Way”, Moore supported the album with a modest U.S. tour, before returning to musical theatre. Her first album release in five years and noted for its stronger jazz influences, Chante Moore’s sixth studio album “Moore is More” was released in July 2013.

Born on 25 September 1976, Roberson got his start in music with the release of his first single “The Moon” which was released in 1994 by Warner Brothers Records. The single originally had belonged on an album, but the album was never released. He completed his studies in Musical Theatre at Howard University in Washington DC. While still attending Howard University he performed in a number of musicals and plays, helping him land a songwriting deal with EMI Label. The deal allowed him to go on to collaborate with various Philadelphia-based artists such as Jill Scott, Musiq Soulchild and DJ Jazzy Jeff.

While continuing to collaborate with other artists like DJ Jazzy Jeff, Roberson found success with his songwriting. He also continued to release albums between 2003 and 2014 such as “The Appetizer” and “Music Fan First” with Blue Erro Soul. In fact, his 2013 release, “Music Fan First” reached number 89 on the US R&B charts. In 2006 Roberson released his first live album entitled “Erro LiveVol. DC.” Also in 2006 he appeared on DJ Spinna’s “Intergalactic Soul” LP. In 2014 he released two albums, “B-Sides, Features and Heartaches” and “The Box,” both of which made it on the US R&B chart.
