Pro Reviews: High Road

  • All Music Guide

    Released when she was just 13yearsold, vocalist Jojo's 2004 eponymous debut was a bona fide hit album and garnered the young pop star a legion of equally youthful fans, as well as lead roles in two films including the 2006 comedy RV alongside Robin Williams. To say that the release of her 2006 sophomore effort The High Road finds Jojo on the cusp of superstardom is a bit of an understatement. Featuring production and songs by such in demand hitmakers as Swizz Beats, Soulshock and Scott Storch the man who made Paris Hilton sound good it should come as little surprise that The High Road is a commercially oriented, radiofriendly contemporary popRB album. What may be a surprise is that it is really, really good. These are wellwritten, catchy pop songs with a healthy dose of hiphop rhythm that serve as solid launching pads for Jojo's superb vocal abilities. Coming off as a kind of urbanized Jennifer Aniston with the chops of Beyonc, Jojo is an assured and likeable performer who can someh...ow embody the yinyang persona of a suburban cheerleader slinging hiphop attitude, as she does in the video for the ridiculously overwrought and utterly addictive leadoff single "Too Little Too Late." It also helps that she's matured just enough so that her somewhat sexy persona makes a bit more sense now than it did in 2004, and she easily sells the cheeky and raw dancefunk of such tracks as "This Time" and "The Way You Do Me." However, it's the blissfully melodic ballads and midtempo anthems that make the biggest impression here. Cuts such as the gorgeous and dreamy "Like That" and "Anything" with its unexpectedly hip sampling of Toto's "Africa" make for gleefully enjoyable guilty pleasures. Similarly, "Good Ol'" is the best summer anthem ever to see release in the fall, and "'Comin' for You" smartly borrows some of Kelly Clarkson's rock energy. While Jojo may not be taking a career road lesstraveled, The High Road does make time for some surprising and memorable pitstops along the way. - Matt Collar, All Music Guide Read more Less
