Night-blooming Jasmin is one of several alternative names of cestrum nocturnum, a plant in the potato family. It is also, with slightly different spelling and punctuation, the name of a song by UK underground rapper fakemink, that has been stuck in my head for the past few days. It has a lo-fi feel to it and doesn’t feel very in your face, more like mumbling out loud. I am not a huge connaisseur of the genre, but this is how I like my hip hop. “Ayy, night, bloom Jasmine, second name Yasmin / Th-they wanna eat me alive, can’t stop them”.
