I was just enjoying my childhood like an ordinary girl. The amount of resilience, passion and energy Jojo have is admirable. I always wonder where she went because she is the same age as me. I was in high school when her single released and I love her songs. It's just really sad and awful that she had to go through such a hard time to release her other songs that she worked so hard for. I hope everything is better now for her. 🙏🏼

    I still don't get it. Why would a label shelf the 3r album of their own artist who was super successful with her first 2? Even without 360 deal they would still make tons of money from that. There has to be more in that story. She had to piss off some creep there or smtg

Mariah Carey almost got ruined her career by bruised ego of her control freak ex. And the list goes on. So maybe Jojo recected some perv in the business and he decided to burry her

Jojo was the very first artiste I connected with, may be it's because we are around the same age, she is the very first artiste I can say I was a fan of because my 12 year old self genuinely loved her and not cuz my siblings or parent did (hope this makes sense) ❤❤.

    I was OBSESSED with Jojo when I was little. I did a choreographed dance to Leave (Get Out) with my sister. I remember so clearly the Christmas I got her second album and a portable cd player, riding home from my grandpa's that night listening to it on the car. I got a money order for 99 cents to get a used copy of her first album off ebay because I was a kid and didn't have a credit card or anything. I followed her for so long, and I've been so excited to see her doing well the past few years and finally getting that grammy! I'm not really into the style anymore from what I've heard, but her voice really is insane, and she just seems to be have a good head on her shoulders and my heart breaks for everything she endured.

    I was in middle school when Jo Jo appeared with leave get out. That song was huge!! I did wonder what happened to her and it really sucks to learn what happened to her. I’m glad she’s still doing what she loves and fought to keep her dream alive. She was likely one of the last artists who relied on a record label to get somewhere and got screwed. If she had been just a little younger and waited maybe she would have been a RUclips start like Justin Bieber. Crazy how things changed

    You guys are right on it, with all the people and topics I’ve gone down the rabbit hole with! I only recently started to wonder whatever happened with Jo Jo, and of course watched the RUclips documentary not too long ago. Gave me new appreciation for her as an artist. I think she’s an old soul. Watching the old interviews, I can’t believe how well spoken she is for being so young, and her voice!?.So sad to see what the industry has done to her, though she seems to still have her head on her shoulders throughout it all. I hope she still has more great things in store on the horizon, she certainly has the talent, dedication, and more importantly seems to be a good person. So glad to see you guys cover her story! 💕
