Jastin Martin, the minimalist trap-soul singer-songwriter, producer and emerging soulful voice from Houston, Texas, responds to the multitude of fans who have rallied behind her debut album Miss Me Yet?, with the release of MISS ME YET…NOW? DELUXE EDITION.

Jastin’s original 10-song album, Miss Me Yet?, which included the breakout title track single “Miss Me Yet?” has now been expanded with a bevy of new material. In addition to “Mean Well,” bonus tracks include “Miss Me Yet” featuring Eric Bellinger; “Up” featuring Sammie; “Do Right” featuring Raheem Devaughn; and “Running From Love.” (Please see track listing below.)

Jastin was featured in the first episode of 2024, of the New York Times Popcast podcast, hosted by Jon Caramanica and Joe Coscarelli. Jon mentions “…it’s low fi… it feels very rhythmic…very minimal…She has a really beautiful voice, she spaces out her words in a way that I find really satisfying…I heard someone doing something so out of character from everything around it, it was hard not to pay attention…and then to add to the fact that I think she’s good. Obviously really exciting.”

Miss Me Yet?, released August 2023, gathered millions of streams, and reams of tastemaker applause. Her hometown Houston Life featured Jastin and praised how “she showcases her vulnerability and versatility as a singer, instrumentalist, and producer.” YouKnowIGotSoul described the album as “ten tracks that demonstrate the unparalleled intimacy of her approach.” AllHipHop put it best, “Clocking in at 10 tracks, the project perfectly showcases her minimalist approach, giving fans a front row seat into her world over evocative instrumentation.”

Critical acclaim was also heaped on “Miss Me Yet?” the title track single. Rated R&B wrote, “Against a twinkling production, Martin sings about being romantically misled after a promising suitor didn’t keep up their end of the deal with doing right by her heart.” CHRON. proclaimed, “Her sound is intimate and minimalist, fusing the vulnerability of rhythm and blues with the smoky cadence of neo soul, the urgent pathos of trap music, and the syncopated rhythms of Afrobeats.” YouKnowIGotSoul hailed the track as “positive and breezy.”
