JoJo‘s tale of tragedy and triumph has been so well-documented over the years her loyal fans probably think they know all there is to know about it.  However, a recent interview with our friends at UPROXX suggests that couldn’t be further from the truth.

Strolling down memory lane to reflect on her humble Foxborough beginnings to being a chart champion with early hits ‘Leave (Get Out),’ ‘Too Little, Too Late,’ and more, the 29-year-old broke down discussing her failed relationship with her first label, Blackground Records, the loss of hundreds of recorded songs, and the lengthy legal battle waged against the imprint to control her own likeness and voice.

The war with the defunct, Barry Hankerson-owned company led her to dizzying heights of depression, substance abuse, and more.

Now, before moving forward with her new album (the recently announced ‘Good to Know’), Jo is putting a period on that dark chapter by shedding light on it in an inspirational tell-all interview.

Having already shown off the power of their tag team via K’s ‘Raising Hell’ (click here to see), the duo reunite for the Dance-Pop number and recently trumpeted its arrival with a technicolor visual.

In a statement released with the track, Freedia referred to the tune as a ‘love anthem’ and said:

“It’s about how love will always conquer fear and hate. I’ve always been about celebrating who you are— no matter what anyone tries to tell you—and this song is meant to inspire people to chase their dreams, no matter what obstacles they face.”
