Jade LeMac – Prettier With Your Mask Off
Vancouver-based singer-songwriter Jade LeMac explores the complicated relationship between attraction and emotional control on “Prettier With Your Mask Off”, a pop single released on November 6, 2026, through Warner Music Canada and East West Records. The song takes the perspective of someone caught in an intense attachment, where fear and desire become difficult to separate.
Inspired by the concept of Stockholm syndrome, the track examines how attraction can develop even when a relationship involves manipulation and control. LeMac explained that the story focuses on the experience of becoming emotionally attached to someone as their true personality gradually comes into view. The subject gives the release a darker direction than some of her earlier singer-songwriter material.
The single is the first preview of her forthcoming EP, expected in early 2027, and arrived with an official visualizer filmed during her recent tour. Jason Van Poederooyen handled production, with LeMac also credited as a writer. The release signals her growing interest in combining darker R&B and hip-hop influences with her established pop songwriting.
LeMac gained wider recognition through her song “Constellations”, which appeared in the Netflix series My Life with the Walter Boys. Her EP It’s Always At Night further introduced listeners to songs including “Running Home”, “Pink Balloon” and “Sweet Dreams”. In 2026, she received recognition as Breakthrough Songwriter of the Year at the SOCAN Songwriting Awards, adding to a year that also included festival performances and a tour opening for Hilary Duff.

Quotable Lyrics:
Look me in my eyes, caught me by surprise
Took me in the night in your blacked-out ride, yeah
Where the hell are we going, where the hell are we going?
Now you’re in the back when the light’s gone out
Sirens down the street, said don’t make a sound, yeah
Where the hell are we going, where the hell are we going?
You consume me, spin me all around
And then seduce me, blindfold on my eyes
