Music is in Chante Moore’s blood. Born the daughter of a minister, Moore grew up singing in church and went signed her first record deal at age 22 after she was discovered at a beauty pageant. Recently divorced, the mother of two is set to star on Broadway in the musical Gospel Soul Rock ‘n’ Roll and has an album set for release in 2013.
Lil Mo
Cynthia Loving, a.k.a. Lil’ Mo, has made a name for herself as an R&B singer, radio personality, songwriter and record producer. After leaving the music business to focus on her family with husband and manager Phillip Bryant and her four children (ranging in age from 10 to 4 months), Lil’ Mo is ready to stage a comeback and prove to her kids that she is the greatest.
Claudette Ortiz
Singer and former model Claudette Ortiz made a splash on the music scene as the lead singer of the popular R&B/Hip-hop group City High. The trio, best known for their 2001 Grammy®-nominated single “What Would You Do?” disbanded in 2003. Ortiz and former City High member Ryan Toby are remembered not only for their music but also for their tumultuous marriage, which eventually ended in 2007. Now, the single mother of three who once considered enlisting in the Air Force reserves to ensure her family’s financial stability is now back and focused on reviving her music career.
Dawn Robinson
Dawn Robinson made a name for herself in the music industry as the youngest member of female R&B vocal group En Vogue. Now single, with a divorce and several hit records behind her, Robinson is focused on releasing a book, forming another girl group, “GLAMM,” and taking her artistry to the next level.
Michel’le
Michel’le Toussaint, or simply Michel’le, is known for her high-pitched, mousy speaking voice —a great contrast to her strong vocals. The R&B singer got her start as the featured female vocalist on World Class Wreckin’ Cru’s 1987 single “Turn Off the Lights” and quickly signed to Eazy-E’s Ruthless Records. Now a single mother, Michel’le is working on reclaiming her place in music, writing a memoir and trying to make time to reenter the dating scene.
