Music Review: Chante Moore - Love The Woman - Page 2

Hell, she could grab some points from Dana Owens herself since she's dabbled a bit in that genre in her post-rap career.

She really seems to have even more fun with Aretha Franklin's "Start Of Something Big", which on my player appeared as a hidden track on the album. I never actually heard of this song, but Chante obviously does the remake justice by putting her complete soul into it. She skits and scats and sounds like she's playing a girl who would literally yank a man into a passionate kiss without any questions.

The release date for this album is June 17th. That's three weeks away. There's still time left for Chante to scrap this CD and try her hand at more songs in the style of the two I mentioned. Not only would it make the album sound different from the rest of her catalog, but it would actually mean that she's moving forward, not backward.  

I wouldn't purchase Love The Woman just to get the two tracks I like. Borrow it from a friend or purchase an MP3 of them if you can. If you know Chante or are part of a fan club, please tell her if she can't re-do this album to try to lean towards songs like those two. If she ever does that, it might really be the start of something big for her.
