Love the Woman

Love the Woman is the fifth studio album by singer Chanté Moore. It was released by Peak Records on June 17, 2008, in the United States. Her debut with the label, it marked her first solo release since her 2000 album Exposed (2000), following the release of her collaborative albums Things That Lovers Do (2003) and Uncovered/Covered (2006) with husband Kenny Lattimore. Moore reunited with producer George Duke and consulted Raphael Saadiq and Warryn Campbell to work with her on Love the Woman with the result that it encompasses contemporary R&B, jazz, and pop.

The album received generally positive but mixed reviews, with critics praising Moore's mature, soulful vocals and the album's blend of contemporary R&B and jazz influences, while some found its pacing, production, and reliance on familiar material uneven. Commercially, it debuted and peaked at number 110 on the US Billboard 200 and number 14 on the Top R&B/Hip-Hop Albums chart, becoming Moore's lowest-charting album to date. Love the Woman spawned the single "It Ain't Supposed to Be This Way" which peaked at number 21 on Billboard's Adult R&B Songs chart.
