Jace Mastra isn’t trying to be anyone else. Sure, he pulls energy from big names like Juice WRLD, Post Malone, Eminem, and Chris Brown, but what he’s doing with Home, Heart & Soul is personal. It’s raw. It’s emotional. And most importantly, it’s real.
Dropped on May 6th, 2025, this debut EP feels like cracking open a handwritten diary that lives somewhere between heartbreak and healing, loneliness and loyalty. There’s no big-budget studio flash here — just a guy with a mic, some real-life scars, and a vision.
Jace doesn’t shy away from the messiness of life. The standout tracks — “Text Me When You Get Home” and “Stuck in a Daze” — feel like late-night thoughts turned into melodies. They’ve got that vulnerable Juice WRLD-style openness, but Jace brings his own flavor: a mix of soulful melodies, introspective bars, and that “I recorded this in my bedroom and meant every word” kind of energy.
Where some artists polish their pain until it’s unrecognizable, Jace leans into it. He lets the imperfections ride, which makes the project feel real — like a conversation with a friend who's finally telling you everything they’ve been bottling up.
It’s not just some off-the-cuff SoundCloud drop — it’s carefully chaotic. You can tell each song came from somewhere real. And helping shape the final sound? His best friend, Mir, who plays the role of co-pilot — handling editing, offering feedback, and keeping the vibe right. That creative trust between them? It’s baked into every track.
“Text Me When You Get Home” hits different. It’s that—I care about you even if we’re not okay—kind of song. Feels like a voicemail you wish you had saved from someone you lost too soon. Emotional, melodic, and grounded in reality.
“Stuck in a Daze” is a moody, floaty, semi-trippy track that captures what it’s like to feel mentally lost — halfway between numbness and overthinking. It’s relatable for anyone who's dealt with anxiety, heartbreak, or just... being human.

Jace isn’t trying to out-rap Eminem bar-for-bar. That’s not the goal here. His lyrics are about feeling over flexing. He’s got an accessible, conversational writing style — like he’s just thinking out loud but set to beats. That’s where the Juice WRLD influence comes through the strongest: it’s confessional, emotional, and sometimes messy in a way that feels genuine.
No live shows yet, but Jace is clearly grinding. He’s dropped visualizers alongside the EP, and there’s a music video in the works, too. As an indie artist, he’s doing everything he can to build a presence — not just through music, but through visuals, branding, and keeping things moving with limited resources.
And his motto? AAF — Always and Forever. More than just a catchy tag — it feels like a promise. A dedication to staying loyal to his art, his people, and his story. Expect to see more content soon — he's not stopping here.
Home, Heart & Soul isn’t here to be perfect — it’s here to be felt. It’s the type of project that makes you want to pick up the phone, check on your people, and maybe even start writing your own story. Jace isn’t trying to go viral. He’s trying to be heard. And he deserves to be.
If you’re into artists who keep it honest and unfiltered — who create from the gut, not the algorithm — then keep your eyes on Jace Mastra. He’s got the passion, the voice, and most importantly, the heart.
