"Jasmine" (sometimes referred to as "Jasmine (Demo)") is a song by Jai Paul, first released in 2012 as a digital download.[2]
Release
[edit]"Jasmine" was first released on SoundCloud on 30 March 2012.[3] It was later re-released on Paul's debut album Leak 04-13 (Bait Ones) (2019),[4] an unofficial version of which was leaked in 2013.[5] Paul also released a version of the track on Bandcamp in 2013.[6]
As of January 2020[update], a special edition vinyl release of "Jasmine" was expected.[7] Jai Paul announced that the record—which was to be scented with jasmine—would contain a remix of the single.[7] A website launched with Jai Paul's 2019 single "He"/"Do You Love Her Now" also allowed users to stream a version of "Jasmine".[8]
Reception
[edit]Fitzmaurice, naming "Jasmine" a best new track in a review for Pitchfork, described it as "echo-pop" and compared it to Daft Punk's 2003 single "Something About Us".[9] Cragg noted similarities with the work of D'Angelo and Prince.[10] Caramanica, who also compared "Jasmine" to Prince's work, described the song as a "whispery caress".[11] Morpurgo, observing that the single's synthesizer loop resembles the work of Chromatics, classified "Jasmine" as R&B,[12] as did Singh;[13] while Rindner compares it to Off the Wall–era Michael Jackson.[14] Bassil describes the song's "obscured" mixing as a hallmark of Jai Paul's style.[15]
Covers
[edit]Ed Sheeran and Octavian have released cover versions of "Jasmine".[15] And on 7 November 2023, Arlo Parks released a cover of the song as the lead single for the deluxe edition of her album My Soft Machine.[16]
