JoJo began to battle with the label for not only keeping her album on hold, but also refusing to let her out of her seven-year contract. I had signed a seven-album deal, and I figured I could put out an album every year or two years," she recalled in a 2015 interview with Vulture. I wanted to keep making music with my family, so I didn't see it as a huge commitment. And I also believed through conversation and an understanding that if it wasn’t working out between us, it would be OK and we could go our separate ways.
