naval23 Posted Saturday at 10:23 PM Share Posted Saturday at 10:23 PM The debut studio album by JoJo, released when she was 13 years old. It was a breakthrough success, peaking at #4 in the US selling 95k in its 1st week and going platinum in Canada & US, and going gold in UK and Germany. 3 singles were released from the album: global smash "Leave (Get Out)", top 25 hit "Baby It's You" and "Not That Kinda Girl" The most streamed album track is "Weak" a cover of SWV's #1 hit in 1993. In 2018, she released a new version of "JoJo" as the original was not on streaming platforms due to issues with her past label. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ChooseyLover Posted Saturday at 10:42 PM Share Posted Saturday at 10:42 PM (edited) I say that's my baby and I'm so proud. Blackground Records was a shitty label by all means but they really understood her from a creative standpoint. This is an iconic debut album and she did the music that she loved and had access to producers that provided that for her. She got to work with Static (the legend behind Aaliyah's red album) in a lot of tracks (although only City Lights made the cut) and thanks to him her passion for songwriting was born. She only wrote Keep On Keepin' On, but her vocal delivery throughout all this album is just pure art in itself. A child prodigy if you ask me. An influence for artists like Ariana and Demi (as confessed by them). You'll always be THAT girl, JoJo.

itshyolee Posted Sunday at 12:54 AM Share Posted Sunday at 12:54 AM Iconic. I always hated how dirty Blackground did JoJo and it's a shame that her catalog from that era missed out on millions of streams prior to the re-recordings and 2021 releases.

selena_lavigne Posted Sunday at 02:02 AM Share Posted Sunday at 02:02 AM Good To Know is a masterpiece. She told a story. And a relatable one. With great songwriting, great lyrics, thank you for reminding me of it. From this album i use Baby It's You quite often actually. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gorjesspazze9 Posted Sunday at 05:25 AM Share Posted Sunday at 05:25 AM Use to be one of my go to's on my IPod Forever a Classic. Always wish The Happy Song would be a radio single, it had potential. And of Course Leave Get Out was The Anthem Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
