Now one of the year’s most well loved releases, Drake‘s smash hit ‘Marvin’s Room‘ saw a plethora of artists from all walks of creative life put their spin on the moody love song in homage to the Rapper.
However, according to the Young Money Prince one particular reworking of the song stood out to him far more than the others did.
Find out exactly what he had to say about Pop starlet JoJo‘s version of the number, below…
Speaking to Paper Magazine, he explained:
It was really shocking, I think, for her audience since throughout her career she’s been kind of stereotyped as this teen pop star and then she comes out with this different kind of substance.
Going onto reveal:
It’s very rare that people take your song and do it over like that.
Yupp. She’s a beast.
Yeaaaaa JOJO!!!! Honestly I think I like her version better than his……
Yes, her version is better than his!
Jojo smashed it. She is a great singer–a pop tart with a real soul.
I’ll echo the first poster,
Yupp. She’s a beast.
<3 that girl!
Of course he would say that.Her version is more popular than his and the only reason why Marvin’s Room is “one of the year’s most well loved releases” is because JoJo slayed it.Hell, it wouldn’t even be a “release” if JoJo hadn’t taken it to the next level.Drake would just leave it there as a viral song and his version underperformed heavily, so…
Her version>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>
Yes her version shits n is proof that she should be making some urban cuts
Hey if you liked jo jo verison your gonna love this Version http://youtu.be/Bk24VPMIZnE
First off, this song is hot just as Drake’s version is, it’s just the hott female spin on it. Good job JoJo. Second, to the hater before that said the only reason Drake’s version was hot is because of this, needs to stop lieing to themselves.
P.S.
JoJo done grown up yall!

Drake should have shot a remix video with her in it, since it got so much BUZZ.
LMFAO use ur head drake.. the song cudda shot higher on the charts and help put jojo back on the map
@CANDICE Stfu.I am no hater, I just watch the charts.There is a reason why Drake didn’t release it before JoJo got millions of views.And I’m not shading anybody, I’m just saying the truth.The song was out there before JoJo so if radios wanted to pick it up, they would, but they didn’t.
he should just remix it with her period…
Haha even drake like JoJos version the best. People were hating on JoJos version because she was white. JoJo killed that Sh*t, just admit it.
JOJO SLAYED AND YOU ALL KNOW IT..THAT IS ALL!
HE SAID EVERYTHING BUT WHETHER HE EVEN LIKED IT OR NOT.. I SENSED A LIL SHADE AS WELL BUT..”IT WAS SHOCKING FOR HER TYPE OF AUDIENCE”…CLEVER ANSWER THOUGH
@RHI RHI IS QUEEN yeah I also sense a shade
of course she had the best remake chris brown and teyana taylor needed to take several seats with their lackluster remakes
Amen
Jojo’s was amazing!
yeah…it was dope…but not better than Drake’s…stop that s***!

she is INCREDIBLE! 😀
i wasnt going to listen to this because idk who jojo is because i dont listen to pop but the positive comments made me listen whoever said Drake should remix this with her is right because her version is DOPE and i didn’t really care for the orginal version to begin with
DRAKE IS A LAME…IT WASNT THAT SUPRISING
YOU TALKING ABOUT A WHITE GIRL THAT CAN BLOW!!!HER ASS OFF
AND SUNG “SWV”
HE IS TRYING TOO TOO HARD
SHE DID REMAKE “SWV” SONG DIDNT SHE!!!!!!!
Jojo does extremely well with making songs her own, listen to her versions of “Rain” “Can’t Believe It” and “Beautiful Girls”, excluding “Rain” I like her versions better than the originals.
But shes been doing this for YEARS…..your just late Drake
JoJo Version sure did killed it!! Beast!
i said that the first time that i heard it my ear knows good music
I love both versions of the song.
Her version SLAYED His the END.
Jo Jo has been sAnging since she was younger and now that shes more mature she can sAng the hell outta most music out and still not only do it justice but sometimes out do the original artist. case in point her cover of marvins room slayed Drakes. His was good but hers was great!!!
i love it and love drake to
– I think jojo verson was better . i don’t really understand drakes part , but both were qood , but imma have to go with jojo <3 she killed that hoeee (;
