JoJo is an up and coming artist in the game. If you heard this girl's voice, you would have thought
she was about thirty or so years old, but she is only thirteen. Her first single off of her highly anticipated album is a
good one. She almost sounds like a Mariah, or an Aaliyah (R.I.P). I am really not surprised by her sound, because Barry Hankerson,
head of BlackGround Records (Aaliyah's uncle) has put out a lot of good artists, but they all haven't stayed strong. By Aaliyah's
passing, JoJo may just be that artist to get them back on the map.

A way to set these guys apart from other bands is how they are very eclectic in their musical style.
They have awesome rockish-punkish music with a twist of a classic violin. Their recently released album, Ocean Avenue, is
really worth buying. Several of the songs on the album are from a personal point of view. These songs have reflected all different
areas of their lives including a break up, a friend leaving, and September 11th. Another great thing about this band is how
positive they are towards giving the message of living your life positively and in your own way. I highly recommend buying
the album.

The only thing I can really tell you about New Found Glory's new album "Catalyst" is the release date.
It will be released May 18th, 2004. Please, if you are a NFG fan go pick up the album. Besides the tracks, which
I know will be awesome, the CD is enhanced meaning there is tons of footage you can watch. Also, when the CD is put into your
computer, you can go on-line and unlock even more awesome extras.
New Found Glory has definitely changed, look wise. They look more mature and of course there are tons
more tattoos. They have released their first single called "All Downhill from Here". The video is in rotation on MTV. I'm
not sure if FUSE has picked it up, but keep an eye out for it.
