JoJo releases new single 'Creature of Habit'

American superstar JoJo has released her new single ‘Creature of Habit’. Written by Grammy nominated songwriter Justin Tranter and singer-songwriter Sasha Sloan, the song is a delicious mix of pop, R&B soul and jazz and questions if a relationship is love or just a habit. “I'm a creature of habit / I want that dramatic / But my habit's you…I don't even really need ya / It's like I'm kinda scared to leave ya,” she sings.

“‘Creature of Habit’ is about someone who feels addicted to the habit of a relationship, even though they’re not truly happy in it,” JoJo says. “Having experienced my own cycles of habits allowed me to find aspects of myself in the lyrics. Walking away from what you’ve become so used to can be really daunting. Sometimes it just feels more comfortable to stay in the habit, rather than allowing yourself the discomfort of letting it go. Essentially, it’s the fear of the unknown that keeps us in the habit.”

The single is JoJo’s third release of 2021, following her collaboration with Parson James ‘Dirty Laundry’ and the stripped back, intimate, country tinged ‘American Mood’. JoJo recently finished in second place on the US version of The Masked Singer, saying “I am so grateful to everyone who helped me behind the scenes mentally and emotionally because there’s no way to know WHAT to expect when you sign up. It was fun becoming this character and singing for people every week with such amazing production around me. It allowed me to reclaim my passion for singing, writing, and even interpreting other people’s songs. The Masked Singer is an experience I’ll always be grateful for. I’ll lowkey miss the swan!”

More new music is expected from JoJo very soon, for now lose yourself in the sound of visuals of ‘Creature of Habit’.
