#LoveJoJo received rave reviews from music critics. Sam Lansky from Time said that it sees JoJo "interpreting classic songs with inventive production and, as ever, chill-inducing vocals". He noted that JoJo's time away from the limelight, due to her constant label drama, has given her "the raw talent to rule 2014". In writing for Idolator, Christina Lee said that the EP "is respectful of R&B tradition and is tastefully modern at the same time". Joe Hopkins of UK online magazine Hit the Floor gave #LoveJo a 9/10 rating, writing: "JoJo's voice has clearly developed from her 'Leave (Get Out)' days but still remains light and delicate." In the review, Hopkins said, "The shifts between falsetto and the runs are exquisite. However, not to forget the production from Da Internz which is completely ingenious." Nylon magazine's Liza Darwin also went on to compare the EP to JoJo's early beginnings, stating "It's a far cry from 'Leave (Get Out)', but we're not mad about it... The bottom line? This girl is good, and we can't wait to hear what she's serving up next." ==Track listing==
