Good to Know is the fourth studio album by American singer-songwriter JoJo. The album was released on May 1, 2020, marking JoJo's first release since leaving Atlantic Records and launching her own record label imprint Clover Music through a joint venture with Warner Records. The album's first single "Man" was released on March 13, 2020, along with the song's accompanying music video. An acoustic version of the album was released on July 10, 2020, assisted by the release of the acoustic version of "Think About You", and later, JoJo would release a deluxe edition of the album on August 28, 2020. The deluxe edition was preceded by the release of a new single, "What U Need".

Concept and title

On February 21, 2020, JoJo revealed that the album, titled Good to Know, was scheduled for a second quarter release in spring that year. "I called the album good to know because of everything I've learned in the past few years – every piece of feedback, criticism (internal or external), whatever it is – it's all just information. And it's all good! I've been lucky to have the space to reflect on my own journey up to now, and I hope people can take comfort in the fact that I am not anywhere near perfect, and I will never sugarcoat anything. We are all constantly living and learning, and that's what makes this life so fun."{{cite web |url=https://www.rap-up.com/2020/02/21/jojo-good-to-know-album-tour/ |title=JoJo Announces 'good to know' Album & Tour |website=Rap-Up |access-date=March 13, 2020 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20200313171424/https://www.rap-up.com/2020/02/21/jojo-good-to-know-album-tour/ |archive-date=March 13, 2020 |url-status=live }}

Songs

“So Bad" is a "silken, spacy track", containing "aquatic keyboards" and "thud-knocking beats" and introduces the album's themes of control and command. "Pedialyte" is a "gritty song", with "talk-like verses" and "relaxed vocals with a truly unforgettably catchy chorus" that we just know we’re going to have stuck in our heads for the rest of the day. The ending of this track includes an outro. "Gold" is an old-school R&B, love track with extreme sultriness.{{Cite web |url=https://celebmix.com/track-by-track-album-review-jojo-good-to-know/ |title=Track-By-Track Album Review: JoJo – good to know |author=Currinn, Jonathan |date=May 7, 2020 |website=CelebMix |access-date=May 8, 2020 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20200520171308/https://celebmix.com/track-by-track-album-review-jojo-good-to-know/ |archive-date=May 20, 2020 |url-status=live }}

Writing for Variety, A.D. Amorosi highlighted the singer's maturity "it's the album where all of her tics – of rushing too many breathy rap-sung syllables into one phrase, overly dreamy production and voluminous multi-tracked harmonies – have become agreeable signatures. JoJo sounds right on time: she's grown into herself." He still added the album comes across like an update of Janet Jackson's Control in a weird way, especially its simmering, slow closer "Funny How Time Flies (When You're Having Fun) "from its cultured chord changes and hushed emotive vocals to its clicking rhythms and orchestrated synths" Mike Wass from Idolator said the album is elevated by JoJo's growth as a vocalist "in much the same way that Mariah Carey purposely dialed it back a notch in the ’90s to focus on agility and delivery, there isn't an unnecessary note on this album. It's one thing to be able to sing well, it's another to make people feel it. And that's exactly what JoJo does on Good To Know."{{Cite web |url=https://www.idolator.com/7910104/album-review-jojos-sleek-soulful-good-to-know |title=Album Review: JoJo's Sleek & Soulful 'Good To Know' |date=May 4, 2020 |website=idolator}}

Writing for This Is R&B, Dai Poole praised JoJo's growth as a vocalist and storyteller "each ad-lib and melisma feels deliberate [...] Each song on this album could stand on its own, but collectively they create an experience. If Good To Know is a snapshot of JoJo’s life these past few years, we can’t wait for our next musical conversation with the talented star.{{Cite web|url=https://thisisrnb.com/2020/05/album-review-jojo-good-to-know/|title=ALBUM REVIEW: JOJO- "GOOD TO KNOW"|date=May 8, 2020|website=This Is R&B|access-date=May 25, 2020|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20200518150915/https://thisisrnb.com/2020/05/album-review-jojo-good-to-know/|archive-date=May 18, 2020|url-status=live}} Sean Maunier from Metro Weekly said the album finds JoJo sounding relaxed, at ease with herself, and its assured tone nicely complements its self-love vibes "it may be a one-note album, but it delivers plenty of good feelings packaged with low synths, slick R&B production and some truly head-turning vocals."{{Cite web|url=https://www.metroweekly.com/2020/05/album-review-jojos-good-to-know-offers-moments-of-real-vulnerability/|title=Album Review: JoJo's Good to Know offers moments of real vulnerability|date=May 8, 2020|website=Metro Weekly|access-date=May 25, 2020|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20200526070848/https://www.metroweekly.com/2020/05/album-review-jojos-good-to-know-offers-moments-of-real-vulnerability/|archive-date=May 26, 2020|url-status=live}}

Writing for The Irish News, Edd Dracott said the album feels both classic to her style and an evolution of her work at different moments "there is a depth and reflective mood as well, with her nimble voice celebrated in the lighter-raising Small Things and matched with booming bass and samples in Think About You. This is R&B with style and thought.".{{Cite web |url=https://www.irishnews.com/arts/2020/05/01/news/album-reviews-ghostpoet-jojo-caleb-landry-jones-damien-jurado-wendy-james-1920290/|title=Album reviews: Ghostpoet, JoJo, Caleb Landry Jones, Damien Jurado, Wendy James|date=May 1, 2020 |website=The Irish News}} Nick Smith from MusicOMH noted how JoJo has matured both musically and vocally "some of the raw lyrics here will sledgehammer that point home, even if they detract from the material a little. The underlying message here appears to be one of self-acceptance being possible through the unravelling of toxic relationships. Some brilliant sonic touches coupled with canny and self-assured slams add up to a sound and credible return".{{Cite web |url=https://www.musicomh.com/reviews/albums/jojo-good-to-know |title=JoJo – good to know | Album Reviews |date=April 30, 2020 |access-date=May 6, 2020 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20200513005521/https://www.musicomh.com/reviews/albums/jojo-good-to-know |archive-date=May 13, 2020 |url-status=live }}

Aimee Cliff from The Guardian said with its themes of independence and self-knowledge, the album carries with it a sense that she has finally arrived as the kind of artist she was always meant to be, "slowed down to a treacle pace and layered in indulgent harmonies, these bass-rich songs are the most mature JoJo has ever recorded. It's a hangover album (one spacious, swirling song is named Pedialyte, for the rehydration drink), all about making clear-eyed assessments of past bad decisions in the light of day. Her voice, always impressive, is now an intimidating muscle, and while her message occasionally brushes against empowerment-pop cliché, the naked passion in her vocal sells every line."{{Cite news |url=https://www.theguardian.com/music/2020/may/01/jojo-good-to-know-review-clover-music |title=JoJo: Good to Know review – mature pop from a clear-eyed star |first=Aimee |last=Cliff |newspaper=The Guardian |date=May 1, 2020 |via=www.theguardian.com |access-date=May 6, 2020 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20200506200141/https://www.theguardian.com/music/2020/may/01/jojo-good-to-know-review-clover-music |archive-date=May 6, 2020 |url-status=live }}
