Moore is More is the sixth studio album by American singer Chanté Moore. It was released by Shanachie Records on July 30, 2013. Serving as her debut release with the label and her first album in five years, the project was conceived as a reflection of Moore's personal experiences with love, loss, and emotional growth, particularly following her divorce from Kenny Lattimore. The album also expands upon her established R&B sound by incorporating contemporary influences, jazz, soul, live instrumentation, and collaborations with producers including Louis Biancaniello, Kwamé, Sam Watters, and Midi Mafia.
The album received generally positive but mixed reviews, with critics praising Moore's vocal ability, emotional delivery, and stylistic range while noting inconsistencies in production and song selection. Commercially, it debuted and peaked at number 184 on the US Billboard 200 and number 27 on the Top R&B/Hip-Hop Albums chart, marking the singer's first album not to reach the chart's top 20. Released during Moore's appearance on the reality series R&B Divas: Los Angeles, the album was promoted with two singles, "Talking in My Sleep" and "Jesus, I Want You," neither of which charted.
