Information about Jojo Hailey’s early life and education is unknown, except that he grew up with his older brother Cedric in his hometown, raised by his parents Cliff and Anita Hailey.
Jojo’s musical career began in 1996, when he co-founded the r’n’b duo called K-Ci & JoJo together with his brother Cedric ‘K-Ci’ Hailey. Their first music venture came when they released the song “How Could You” for the 1996 film “Bulletproof”. Later that year, they collaborated with hip hop musician 2Pac on his single entitled “How Do You Want It”, which topped the Billboard Hot 100; these two projects marked the beginning of his net worth.
In the following year, the duo released their debut studio album entitled “Love Always”, with the hit single “All My Life” which soon became their hallmark. The album proved to be a huge accomplishment, as it was immediately certified gold and then four times platinum, and reached No. 2 on the Top R&B/Hip-Hop Albums and No. 6 on the Billboard 200 charts, which added a considerable amount to Jojo’s net worth. In 1999 their second album “It’s Real” was released and achieved platinum certification too. During the same year, they also released two songs for film titles – “Money Can’t Buy You Love” for “The Players Club”, and “Life” for the film of the same title. In the following year out came the duo’s third studio album entitled “X” with the hit single “Crazy”, which reached No. 3 on the Billboard Hot 100. In the new millennium, the duo released two more albums – “Emotional” (2003) and “My Brother’s Keeper” (2013), but neither of which achieved commercial success. However, thanks to their overall accomplishments in the music industry, the duo won Favorite R&B Band/Duo/Group award at the 1999 American Music Awards, and Best Group – R&B award at the Blockbuster Awards in the same year.
To speak further about Jojo’s musical career, he is also a member of Jodeci – an r’n’b band – together with his brother and the DeGrate brothers – Dalvin and Donald. They have released four studio albums – “Forever My Lady” (1991), “Diary Of A Mad Band” (1993), “The Show, The After Party, The Hotel” (1995) and “The Past, The Present, The Future” (2015) – all of which have increased his net worth.
If to talk about Jojo Hailey’s personal life, there is no information in the media about it. It is known that he was addicted to drugs and alcohol, as was his brother, so they created their own reality TV show, entitled “K-Ci & JoJo Come Clean” in 2010.
