Jazzie Young Is Giving Situationships a Middle Finger with “Mr. Casual”
Out everywhere on May 16th.
“keep you around, to let me down”
Indie-pop artist Jazzie Young is back with a fierce new anthem for the brokenhearted, boundary-setters, and anyone who's ever been strung along. Her latest single, “Mr. Casual,” dropping May 16, is a sonic middle finger to situationships and the emotional confusion they leave in their wake.
Drawing from personal experiences and the collective frustration of a generation navigating non-committal dating culture, “Mr. Casual” blends Jazzie’s signature dreamy vocals with biting lyricism and a moody, alternative-indie edge. It’s a breakup song with a backbone—empowering, unapologetic, and long overdue.
“This song is for anyone who’s ever felt like a placeholder,” Jazzie shares. “It’s about reclaiming your worth when someone refuses to define the relationship—but keeps you close enough to keep you hoping.”
“Mr. Casual” follows the buzz of Jazzie’s previous singles, “Miss You Already” and “Waiting On You,” whose cinematic music video earned critical acclaim with nominations at both the Pasadena International Film Festival and the Berlin Music Video Awards. With her storytelling gaining recognition on screens as well as in headphones, Jazzie continues to build momentum as a rising voice in indie music.
Balancing vintage soul with modern emotional edge, Jazzie’s music resonates with fans who crave vulnerability without the sugarcoating. “Mr. Casual” marks a bold evolution in her artistry—an anthem that says what so many have felt, but couldn’t quite put into words.
“Mr. Casual” will be available on all major streaming platforms on May 16.
For fans of HAIM, Clairo, and Wetleg, this is the anthem you’ll want on repeat every time you delete their number (again).
Recently named one of LADYGUNN'S 2025 Artists To Watch, LA-based indie darling Jazzie Young is stepping confidently into a breakout year as she prepares to release her debut full-length album. Her recent single and first release of 2025, “Waiting On You!”, has already been met with widespread critical acclaim, setting the tone for what promises to be her most introspective and sonically expansive work yet.
Her recent releases include harrowing indie ballad “Miss You Already” - a song that takes you through the phases of grief - and fan-favorite single “Lux”, inspired by Sofia Coppola’s The Virgin Suicides — dives deep into themes of emotional growth, romantic unraveling, nostalgia, and the bittersweet beauty of change. With lush instrumentation and raw, poetic lyrics, Jazzie offers a dreamy yet grounded exploration of how life, in all its messiness, can still feel meaningful.
Blending vintage pop sensibilities with modern alt-edge, her run of singles cements her place as a voice for the quietly complicated — a soundtrack for those learning to let go while holding onto themselves.
