(Clover Music)With this long-awaited fourth album, the former teen idol has finally arrived as the kind of artist she was always meant to be
‘Look at me now” is a fitting opening line for Good to Know, the fourth studio album from R&B
Singer JoJo. The artist has been on a storied journey through the
music industry and the public eye: first emerging as the 13-year-old singer of Leave (Get Out), she then spent years mired in legal disputes with her label that prevented her releasing music. After reigniting her passionate fanbase with a string of independent, darker-sounding mixtapes (and one viral
Drake cover), she released Mad Love, her long-delayed third album, in 2016. But Good to Know, released on her own imprint Clover Music, with its themes of independence and self-knowledge, carries with it a sense that she has finally arrived as the kind of artist she was always meant to be.
