Good to Know [LP]

JoJo's fourth full-length album, and first on her own Clover Music imprint with Warner Records, 2020's Good to Know, finds the singer digging into a sensual R&B sound that's marked by a hard-won maturity and creative freedom. The album arrives four years after Mad Love, during which time JoJo parted ways with Atlantic Records and worked to take control of her career, launching Clover Music and releasing re-recorded versions of her first two albums. Here, working with producers Doc McKinney, Dylan Wiggins, Lido, and others, JoJo frames her warm vocals in hypnotic downtempo grooves, synths, and flowing guitar accents. Included on Good to Know are the tracks "Man," "Lonely Hearts," and "Comeback," the latter of which features guest spots from Tory Lanez and 30 Roc. ~ Matt Collar
