A singer. A songwriter. A prodigy. With just a few notes, she‘s made some of the most influential men and women in America stop in their tracks to find her, and meet her. She possesses a rare talent that has enchanted talk show hosts, celebrities and audiences throughout the United States
Her name is JoJo.
After being signed to Blackground Records (the home of Aaliyah, Timbaland & Magoo and Toni Braxton), JoJo spent the next four months recording tracks for her self-titled debut in New York, Miami and Los Angeles, working closely with famed producers such as Soulshock & Karlin (Whitney Houston, Craig David), Vincent Herbert (Destiny‘s Child, Toni Braxton), Mike City (Brandy), Brian Morgan (SWV), The Underdogs (Tyrese, Ruben Studdard), and writer Static (Aaliyah, Ginuwine).
One of the final products is the incredible debut single ‘Leave (Get Out)‘ which propelled her album in the US to #4 and has now shipped Gold (500,000 units).
Seen by many as one of the most infectious and addictive radio records since TLC‘s ‘No Scrubs‘, this 4 minute track will be one of the most played records in the UK within a few short weeks.
JoJo has already been featured on MTV‘s TRL and GMTV, and she‘s rapidly becoming a phenomenon around the globe.
