♫ HOT OR NOT: JOJO REMIXES DRAKE’S “HOUSTATLANTAVEGAS“
Wednesday, June 10, 2009

♫ Jojo - Houstatlantavegas
♫ ALTERNATE LINK ♫
18 year-old singer Jojo recently posted her remix to Drake’s “Houstatantavegas” song on her youtube this week. According to her this was one of her favorite songs off of his “So Far Gone” mixtape, so she wanted to put her spin on it.
Earlier this month Jojo told fans via her myspace page that she will be attending Northeastern University and will continue to focus on her music career. She is currently waiting for her record label Blackground Records to finalize a new deal so she can release her new album.

yeah i think it’s best that she gets her education everyone needs an education to fall back on. after she gets her degree she should try to come back out. i love her voice but since she came out so young, she couldn’t appeal to the 18 and older crowd as much

JOJO’S VOICE IS NUTHIN TO PLAY WITH. EVEN WHEN SHE WAS YOUNG, SHE WAS SINGING LIKE SHE WAS AN ADULT. THAT’S A BLACK GIRL TRAPPED IN A WHITE GIRL’S BODY!!!

That was great! I actually LOVE that song by Drake since February..i wish he release it on the airwaves already. I;m a songwriter who’s networking through the indusrty as we speak. Jo-Jo has great talent! Not sure whats up with her label, but if they frequent this site and are need of good lyrics for Artist such as Jo-jo theu need to hit me up!…

Very underrated artist SMH. I saw her ‘rant’ on YouTube and hollered (about the hold up of a distribution deal). Looks like it ain’t happening and I expect this to be shelved. She is like what the only person on Blackground (didn’t Toni, Tank leave)?

JOJO is the TRUTH! I would love to hear JoJo/Drake duets in the future. I hope her new deal and album include more R&B/Hip Hop tracks as singles. She’s had some hot tracks on her albums before but they release the most pop-sounding songs as singles instead of letting her crossover. A crossover would broaden her audience and bring more record/tour ticket sales!

Although I’m not a fan of drake and am not crazy on the song the vocals are nice, soft but not sickly sweet.
Jojo and Stacie Orrico are two talented girls who are both really slept on and I want both to release albums. Its sad that there is talent like theirs out there but the industry doesn’t care eventhough these artists are really marketable.

Jojos defiantely been underated i think her third album will show her growth cause she has an amazing voice. Hopefully blackground records will finalize the distribution deal soon and her album can drop 4th quarter this year. They need to really promote her this time around cause i know she got some major hits that are ready to be heard.

Hey does anyone know if coco from SWV had something to do with metering her? Not so much on this song but on her earlier R&B “ish” stuff she sounded a lot like her and used a lot of her “riffs”
Like the track better than both of them.

JoJo is not tryna sound black she is singing with the voice that God gave her. Her voice is soulful aint nothing wrong with that. She did a really good job with this song, i luv her can’t wait til her cd debuts.

I have both her albums too. Girl has been slept on for 5 years and it’s not fair.
She reminds me of Jon B. So much talent and potential, but the record labels don’t know what to do with it because her “skin color doesn’t match the genre she sings”. Bunch of Bull + Shit!

Its funny how some on here are saying ”She needs her education to fall back on” - having a ”Plan B” will concoct her another field.. If everything else fails… hello jojo came out what year?!/ At what age?!? she made enough money to set her up for life…Than a normal 9-5 or degree would.
Yes knoeledge is power. I am 20. I want to have the best of both worlds.. I work a part time job & study through Open University. I am in my second year of BA Marketing… In this economy - if you got a job stick to it. I have seen plenty of friends who have graduated from Cambridge university. With computer science degrees,law degrees etc. They actually cannot get on to salary of £30.000 annually. I use to work for a sales company. My boss had a masters in marketing.The guy couldnt even get a salary of £30.000 or over with his masters. Yes education is very imporant. But so is surviving. You cannot expect a normal person to go uni full and live off lones. But you dont always have to follow like a flock of sheep.
Plus this isnt the first time I am have come across ignorant poltroons on this post. At the people saying ”SHE HAS A BLACK VOICE” or is a white girl ”WITH A BLACK GIRLS VOICE.. Need to listen to
you sound so ignorant, what does her color have to do with it????????
Look at Christina Augliria & Mairah Carey (they have strong vibratos)
Damn they can out sing Christina Millian,cassie and rihanna.
They’re are vast amount of people in this world that can sing - whether they be Indians,Hispanics or whites. Black are not the only ones. Expand you horizons. They are other genres too.

I think Jojo is soooo underrated. She has one on the most versatile, strong, pleasant voices in her age group right now. I think only Jordin Sparks could compete with this girl’s vocal. I can’t think of any1 else at the moment…

@44
I read your comment and I tried to ignore it but that is complete ignorance. If this was real life i would cuss yo ass out so bad and I am black. She is not trying to sound black. That is her voice!!!!! It aint the fact that you said she was trying to sound black its the fact that you said you don’t like it when white people try to sound black! Once again what is sounding black? Rnb has no skin color just like pop music doesn’t, anyone can sing it.
66.
you and i
Thursday, June 11, 2009 /
65- agreed! jordin sparks sings “white” and nobody ever says anything about that. like you said those people are ignorant. jojo has alot of talent and she needs to leave that label because they are not going to let her crossover and sing rnb.

the list can go on, stop stereotyping people its beyond annoying grow up and realize that not everyone is going to fit the description of a stereotype….we are just flesh melanin doesn’t determine how we sing

I am so saddened that she is not recognized by record labels and signed blah blah blah
but it’s not ONLY the record labels people, it’s the publishing, promotion, A&Rs and all them that f* true artists (like JoJo) over, and of course, the “FANS” who say, “oh, she has a good voice, I’ll buy her album” and when the girl shit comes out, it gets slept on…we gotta move people, we have that power once the artist is signed and the artist can keep the power by shoppin’ around…….IMO

@ ashanti stan
Go idolise ashanti… Better yet - go to libary or waterstones and pick up some books and educate yourself… Do i care if anybody read it? you sure went pass it- looks like collocoted interest… I gave my opinion and kept it moving.stop posting undera different name… so what if mariah is half blac - just goes to hsow igorant you are. Do not erdaictae her white half. You couldt even justify christinas side. They’re are many more. Justin timberlake - Robin thicke and celine dion…Just spoke you pipe. get lost..
@ Tanyah fair enough for a average person - a franchsie is a good idea - but then again you need a loan to get it on freelane & pay it off… but i didnt say £30 a hour i said annually 30.000…Just because you have a degree doesnt mean you always find a job with greater mass income They’re people without degrees whom are wealthy…
Jojo has enough money & interest - she doesnt need to do that. Knowledge is power - with her going to university - would be good - she has more over the average artist on the industry - millions and education…

JoJo is an awesome singer. She is grossly under rated! She is more talented than most of the R&B singers on the tube right now. Why won’t her record label promote her to her full potential? We could really use her musical talent right now!! An album in 2010, PLEASE!
