Hotshot R&B producers have been roped in: Swizz Beatz' fiery The Way You Do Me, which continues in the vein of his sterling work on the more red-blooded moments of Beyoncé's latest album, is a particular highlight, with JoJo herself proving surprisingly adept at frenzied, sexually possessed hollering.

On The High Road, her second solo album, Jojo comes off more like a pint-size Mariah Carey or Christina Aguilera than a hip-shaking Brittney clone.

Pop produced many gems in 2006. Artists explored and engaged. JoJo's The High Road was not one of the aforementioned gems because it did neither.

Since JoJo released her debut album at the age of thirteen, the R&B popster has become a role model to suburban adolescents who talk gangsta but still carpool to school in mom's Kia Sorento. ("Yo, these cup holders is the shizz!") The High Road won't disappoint them, and it should also establish the now-fifteen-year-old singer as a future pop powerhouse.

Her album was better but I didn't think she needed that much producers in her album. I liked alot of the songs just like her first like The High Road, Anything, Like That, Let it Rain, How to touch a girl and Note to God. The other songs were either good or okay. Another was the songs seemed sexual but when you hear it, it's not about sex at all. |

Jojo did her best. Im gonna be honest and say her first album was better. This Time, High Road, Anything are my favs. I didnt really like How To Touch A Girl til I saw the video and heard it more. She's not gonna make a new album til shes 18 and thats a good thing so she can mature a bit more, can come up with some hot new tracks. |

I was really looking forward to buying this album because I adored her first single and her first album so much, but there were a few tracks that I wasn't really feelin' that much but it was still worth buying. |

There were some songs I got into immediately and some I just don't listen to. But JoJo still has an amazing voice for a young woman her age. |

I think her new album is amazing, and for someone like me who has wanted to be a singer all my life but need to get a little older I think it's definetly influential. |

Very good album! There are incredible,catchy and soulful songs like Coming For You, Too Little Too Late and This Time. Unfortunately there are boring,trashy and dull songs like The Way You Do Me and Note to God. Even though I don't like all the songs I adore the album as a whole! Worth buying! |

i love this album. i love her songs in both albums. if she wont release another album til she's 18, then yeaa, she can mature. but i mean, at this age, she's done very well. her songs are catchy. it always gets me singing and bouncing to the tunes. great job =) |

This album overall was pretty good. I'm just glad that this girl has real talent unlike some people out there now. I will say that I liked her first album a little more. She seems to have given in to the public asking her to sing pop/rock songs like "coming for you" and "too little too late".. although I did like the song "too little too late", she definatelty should keep more on the r&b track cuz she has that type of voice. She's not a "pop" singer like britney spears she's got too much soul in her voice so that's what she should stick to. Overall she has talent that is very hard to come across these days and I would put her up against ashanti, cassie and natalie any day. That would almost be unfair to them. |

This is a good album but when i first listened i was shocked becuz i didnt kno that jojo would go that deep into hip-hop in the tracks like this time and the way you do me, but i got hooked and couldnt stop listening to it. i was a little disappointed that too little too late sounds alot like leave (get out) but i do like that song..my fave song is "coming for you" |

jojo is an amazing singer, i'l say dat her 1st album was a bit better, not being sad or anything, but its good that she wasnt just singing about guys and all cause i think shes not really ready for that kind of stuff just yet, but 'note to god' and 'exceptional' are the best songs. it has a good message to it. |

I think JoJo is a huge romodel for kids like me.When she first started singing she was only 13 and that's the main reason why I like her so much.Even though she's 16 now, i'll always love her music. |

I love this album i didn't think i would like it but i did my favs are: The High Road, Anything, Coming For You, Good ol', Exceptional & Too Little, Too Late there is only one song on the album that i don't like and that is like that i think it never had much beats in it it's not like the other songs i hope she releases anything and coming for you. And i rather this album than the first album the first one was shit the only good songs were the ones she had. |
