JoJo thought that it was more experimental than her album because she "was able to explore the full spectrum of things that interest me and inspire me musically", which resulted in a broad range of sounds, such as pop, hip-hop and soulful records. The mixtape's recording took place over one year.

The video's release was then delayed because JoJo wanted to make sure that the timing was right, as its direction was so different than anything that she had done before. In January 2010, JoJo shot a viral video for a track called "In the Dark". In late 2009, JoJo stated that she would be working on her first mixtape with producers Clinton Sparks and Chester French. To prepare for the release of All I Want Is Everything, then retitled Jumping Trains and now untitled without a release date, JoJo decided to release a mixtape in 2010. JoJo won the case, and her label Blackground Records reached a deal with Interscope Records for distribution. Eventually, JoJo decided to sue the label in order to be released from her contract. However, the album's release was delayed due to issues with her record label, Da Family Entertainment, which had encountered financial difficulties. In mid-2008, JoJo revealed that the album, previously titled All I Want Is Everything, was scheduled for a fourth quarter release that year, to coincide with her eighteenth birthday in December. Following the release of " Anything"-the final single from her second album The High Road-in late 2007, JoJo stated that she had been writing and working with producers for her third studio album, but would not go into the studio until early 2008.
