WhatвЂ™s particularly sad is how all the big names that are brought in happen to deliver some of their worst work. As repackaged as it is, it actually has something that the rest of the album is sorely lacking: personality. ItвЂ™s something that Alanis Morrissette might have recorded for her last IвЂ™m-no-longer-angry-and-therefore-am-content-with-plain-ballads album. Certainly, the lead single вЂњToo Little Too LateвЂќ is appropriately melodramatic, covering the exact same ground that вЂњLeave (Get Out)вЂќ covered but without the angry chorus (if it ainвЂ™t broke вЂ¦). From the most generic cover in the world to one of the most shockingly low-energy opening tracks in recent memory (the Storch-produced вЂњThis TimeвЂќ), there really isnвЂ™t much to recommend. ItвЂ™s really shocking how bland this album is. WeвЂ™re back to the days of a really good single and an unholy amount of filler. Could she actually release a true-to-life good album? Would The High Road be the next Bodyguard Soundtrack, or even Breakaway for that matter? They were actual songs, not just a litany of beats arranged around JoJoвЂ™s quite-good voice. Yet even filler like вЂњThe Happy SongвЂќ was actually enjoyable, catchy, and sort of fun. The tell-off lead single вЂњLeave (Get Out)вЂќ was quite good, even if it was a little bit odd that you were receiving relationship advice from a 13-year-old girl. On her 2004 self-titled debut, she had upstart producers like Soulshock giver her beats that were, surprisingly, good. So itвЂ™s no surprise that the cover sticker of 15-year-old diva JoJoвЂ™s sophomore effort proudly trumpets the presence of noted rap producers Swizz Beatz and Top 40 go-to-guy Scott Storch. ItвЂ™s like pop music in the вЂ™80s all over again, only now the charts arenвЂ™t controlled by artists, but by songwriters and - more than ever - producers. IвЂ™ve steered people towards greatness and away from crap several times, but shortly after вЂњSince U Been GoneвЂќ nearly re-defined pop music in a rock context in 2004, pop albums, on the whole, have been actually getting better. Brooke is the only person signed to this record label right now.Having worked in music retail for several years, IвЂ™ve come across multiple people - even during the advent of iTunes - that simply didnвЂ™t want to buy an album because of the fear that the one song they heard on the radio was good, and the rest would be terrible.

While the rest of the album isn't terrible, none of the other songs are particullarly noteworthy or catchy. With her single, About Us, already racing up the charts, can the rest of her debut album be far behind? Well, yes.
