Mad Love is the third studio album by American singer-songwriter JoJo. The album was released on October 14, 2016, through Atlantic Records. [5] Incorporating a base core of R&B, pop and soul music, it serves as her first major album release in a decade following 2006's The High Road . JoJo co-wrote every song on the album while also providing vocal production every song. The album was JoJo's only album release under Atlantic Records, as she left in August 2017 to form her own label under Warner Records.

Contents

Beginning in 2008, JoJo had recorded several incarnations of a third album while still contracted under Blackground Records. These incarnations were ultimately scrapped following JoJo's difficulties with the label and subsequent release from the Blackground Records in 2013. After signing with Atlantic Records in December 2013, the album then began production from scratch; the majority of the album was recorded in early 2016. Amongst those included are collaborations with rappers Wiz Khalifa and Remy Ma, in addition to Canadian singer Alessia Cara who features on the song "I Can Only." JoJo also worked with producers Josh "Igloo" Monroy, Jussifer, Rock Mafia, Matt Friedman, Oscar Holter, and MNEK, among others.

The album was preceded by the release of the lead single "Fuck Apologies" which features American rapper and Atlantic Records label mate Wiz Khalifa. The song became moderate success charting on the U.S. Billboards Pop Digital Songs chart, peaking at number forty. It became JoJo's first charting single in the UK since 2007's "Anything", peaking at number 104 on the singles chart and number 18 on the UK R&B Singles Chart. "Mad Love.", "FAB." featuring Remy Ma, and "Music" served as promotional singles leading up to the album's release. Mad Love was further promoted through the Mad Love World Tour.

Upon its release, the album received generally favorable reviews from music critics, some noting that the album became JoJo's "bold coming-of-age statement" that helped cement her maturity and vocal growth since her previous album. Mad Love debuted on the US Billboard 200, Current Albums & Top Digital Albums chart at number 6, number 4 and number 2 respectively with 25,000 album-equivalent units, of which 19,000 were traditional album sales.

Background and development

Following the release of "Anything"—the final single from her second studio album The High Road —in late 2007, JoJo stated that she had been writing and working with producers for her third studio album, but would not go into the studio until early 2008. [6] In mid-2008, JoJo said that her third album, then-titled All I Want Is Everything, was scheduled for a fourth-quarter release that year. [7] Due to difficulties with her label Blackground Records, the year passed without a release. Following numerous delays, on February 28, 2011, JoJo revealed the album would instead be titled Jumping Trains." [8] The album again did not see a release and JoJo continued to face difficulties with her label. She was subsequently released from Blackground Records in December 2013 and recordings with the label were ultimately shelved.

Senior Vice President of A&R at Atlantic Records at the time, Aaron Bay-Schuck orchestrated the deal and was instrumental to JoJo's signing with Atlantic Records in January 2014. [9] [10] [11] [12] JoJo then began working on her third studio album for the label. However, on November 9, 2014, it was announced that Schuck would be leaving his position at Atlantic and was appointed the new President of A&R for Interscope Geffen A&M Records, thus leaving JoJo without an A&R at the label. [13] [14] In an interview with Idolator, JoJo spoke about how the change affected the album's development, stating: "The A&R that signed me, Aaron Bay-Schuck, left and went to Interscope... He called me and was like, 'I have this thing. I don't wanna leave you. I don't wanna lose you. But I need to go.' I said, 'I completely understand,' but then I was left at Atlantic again and just kind of didn't know what to do." [15]

On August 21, 2015, JoJo released the extended play III (pronounced "tringle"). [16] [17] Following its release, JoJo embarked on her second worldwide headlining I Am JoJo Tour. Initially, the tour and III's release was a reintroduction for JoJo into the industry with a major-label backing. During this time, a large portion of the album had already been recorded and all three tracks from III were originally set to appear on JoJo's third album. However, these tracks were ultimately not included on Mad Love, with JoJo explaining "I was given a lot of songs, I was recording a lot of things that didn't feel completely 100% authentic to me." [15]

In November 2015, during the I Am JoJo Tour, Levesque's father Joel died due to struggles with addiction. JoJo had also broken up with her boyfriend of two years. Following the tour's conclusion in December 2015, Levesque took a six-day rest from work during the first week of January, where she booked a hotel and spent time with herself and re-evaluated her life. As a result, JoJo decided she was unhappy with the approach the album was taking. This resulted in III becoming its own standalone project, and JoJo began working on new material in early 2016, with only a few tracks from earlier recording sessions ("I Am" and "Good Thing") making it onto the Mad Love album. From September 9 to 15, 2016, JoJo uploaded short videos of her singing each song from the album on her Instagram account, revealing the track listing of the album. [18]

Concept and artwork

On July 28, 2016 it was announced that JoJo's third album would be titled "Mad Love". Speaking on the meaning behind the album's title, JoJo stated: "Mad Love. means so many different things, and I loved that about the title. It was one of the first songs that I wrote for this album, and I felt like it kind of shaped the intention of it, of this work. And, a phrase that I use in my family a lot, we say, 'I love you madly.' That's that 'I love you through it all, I love you as you are, I love you in a crazy way, in a deep way, in a way that other people might not understand.' And that's how I feel about music, and that's what my relationship is with my fans, and it's an intense, passionate love. That's also the love that I like to have in my romantic life. So, all of that is represented on this album." [19]

On September 7, 2016, JoJo revealed the album artwork via her social media accounts and announced the album would be available for pre-order on September 16, 2016. [20] The album design was created by Nick Malvone with photos shot by photographer Brooke Nipar.
