So good to see these back on iTunes and with her stronger vocals!
Her old label must be pissed! |

As some will know, JoJo's first two albums (and Leave (Get Out) in many territories) have not been available to purchase or stream for years thanks to her evil ex-label that kept her locked up for years.
Well, JoJo just pulled off the boss move of 2018, re-recording (technically covering) and releasing her entire back catalogue to streaming sites so that she can own the masters, and doing so on her birthday to mark her 'Clover Music' imprint at Warner. We love this legendary climax: |

I’m hoping in this case that she can finally release her Jumping Trains album in complete form.

This version of Leave is a bit more stripped down: I’m hoping in this case that she can finally release her Jumping Trains album in complete form. It's not possible. She can only do this because she's essentially recording covers of previously released songs. Demonstrate wasn't released for sale, but it was premiered by blackground on soundcloud, which has since become a chart streaming site. Loopholes! |

[/quote] Ah yeah that makes sense! Also the fact she’s blurred out her eyes on all the covers... shade, love it What about the mixtapes she released? She was able to release them and surely they’d be eligible? This post has been edited by allfiredup93: 21st December 2018, 09:17 PM |

I don't think I've heard her albums in full before, maybe the first one. But this is one of the classiest and most incredible career moves ever. It makes me want to listen to them out of respect.

'The High Road', her second album you will love! 'Coming For You', 'Let It Rain', 'The High Road', 'Like That' and the two singles are all amazing. |

But I thought she got out of the contract that her parents signed for her?

She got out of the contract, and she's now on her own imprint at Warner, but the label owns the masters to her first two albums. Blackground Records have taken almost all of their former artists' music off streaming and itunes, including most of Aaliyah's catalogue and Toni Braxton's Libra. They essentially no longer exist now, and the owner Barry Hankerson (Aaliyah's uncle) is pure evil, so it's unlikely that her old albums will be for sale anytime soon. |

Wonder if they had to clear the Africa sample again? They surely would have had to clear it since it's a new recording. I guess the question is how much/if they had to pay, or if they were able to explain: "Hey, we actually cleared this sample 12 years ago but now I have to cover myself so that the song will be online again and you can get your royalties". Whew. I don't think I've heard her albums in full before, maybe the first one. But this is one of the classiest and most incredible career moves ever. It makes me want to listen to them out of respect. According to Nicki The High Road one of the greatest R&B albums of all time. |

I didn't know that about Aaliyah's stuff It is awful and makes this move all the more amazing from JoJo! |
