Jazmine Flowers - 'i'm DONE'
Ever wondered what a dystopian club would sound like? Check out Jazmine Flowers’ new track ‘i’m DONE’.
Bringing together a hybrid of r’n’b vibes with alternative dark pop sounds, Jazmine has certainly caught our attention. Early tracks such as ‘awkward’ and ‘detached’have inspired comparisons to the likes of FKA twigs, Jhené Aiko, Kehlani and Banks, while her ascent has been boosted by airplay at Radio 1 and 1Xtra as well as shows with Becky Hill and Dylan.
Both instantly accessible and full of creative production flourishes which gives her dark pop / alternative R&B hybrid an engaging edge, ‘i’m DONE’ is a high impact statement from Jazmine. While it was inspired by a moment of vulnerability - feeling child-like after moving back home with her mum during lockdown - it’s a song full of swaggering self-confidence as Jazmine affirms her independence with a voice that balances velveteen beauty with a precisely enunciated rhythmic quality.
Jazmine says, “‘i'm DONE’ is, without question, my favourite song I've made to date. Although it sounds pretty dark it has a funny element to it and a beautiful vulnerability too. I expect a lot of young people will have had similar experiences. I hope they can relate and know that it's a very universal feeling! No hate to my Mum though, I love her to pieces and I'm sure I annoy her just as much, if not more!"
