    JoJo Interview Part 1


    Brendaninmusic: hey!!!
    JoJoHighRoad2: helloooo!
    Brendaninmusic: how are you JoJo? where are you IMing us from today?
    JoJoHighRoad2: I'm at my home in Massachusetts right now.
    JoJoHighRoad2: and I'm good. how are you?
    Brendaninmusic: doing good thanks!
    Brendaninmusic: getting a little relaxation time at home before the big album release???
    JoJoHighRoad2: hehe, yes! The leaves are just starting to change and the weather is awesome and all my family's here, so it's good to chill out a bit before it gets extra crazy!
    Brendaninmusic: very nice!
    Brendaninmusic: so you have a lot goin' on lately
    Brendaninmusic: first off, tell us a little (or a lot) about 'The High Road'
    JoJoHighRoad2: It's my sophomore record! And I'm very excited about it.
    JoJoHighRoad2: It's been 3 years since i was in the studio recording my first album, so to get back in and sing again was so much fun.
    JoJoHighRoad2: i had taken some time off to film two movies and had a great experience with both, but it felt so nice to get back to the music.
    JoJoHighRoad2: I worked with everyone from Swizz Beats and Scott Storch to Diane Warren and Billy Steinberg. It's eclectic and something that i worked very hard on.
    Brendaninmusic: those are some of the biggest names in the business. What was it like to work with those people?
    JoJoHighRoad2: It was incredible. I was a little nervous to be honest, though... I got to go to Miami to work with Scott Storch and Sean Garrett and i didn't know quite what to expect.
    JoJoHighRoad2: All the producers, however, were so nice and helpful and definitely put me at ease.
    Brendaninmusic: was it more of a collaborative process with them?
    Brendaninmusic: or did you take more of the driver's seat?
    JoJoHighRoad2: Thankfully yes, they were always open to my ideas, opinions or suggestions.
    JoJoHighRoad2: Since I'm still very young, I love to listen to and learn from other peoples' ideas because they have more experience when it comes to things and they have dozens of hit songs under their belt, so i think its good to work in conjunction with them as long as we can still get across who i want to be as an artist.
    JoJoHighRoad2: sorry... I'm taking a long time to type
    JoJoHighRoad2: lol
    Brendaninmusic: haha it's ok. you're on vacation, you're allowed to be as slow as you want
