“Over The Gumshoe Strut’s soul-jazz infused backdrop, Chadio blends expressive flows, insightful bars and wit…” – Word Is Bond
Word Is Bond has provided a review of Chadio & The Gumshoe Strut’s “Bring It Back”, the second single from their upcoming album, Root Sellers.
New single from Chadio & The Gumshoe Strut, the second from their upcoming collab album, Root Sellers.
Now based in Kamloops, BC, veteran MC Chadio returns with “Bring It Back”, the second single from his forthcoming album, Root Sellers. Dropping this summer via Hand’Solo Records, the project marks a new chapter — rooted in experience, sharpened by time, and driven by purpose. Over gritty, soul-infused production from acclaimed beatmaker The Gumshoe Strut, Chadio blends clever wordplay, lived-in perspective, and a deep respect for the craft. It’s a boom-bap burner that feels equally at home on dusty speakers or in fresh playlists. Already known to many through his “Sunday Bars” live rap sessions on Instagram, Chadio continues to carve out space for thoughtful, grounded hip-hop that hits hard without shouting.
Written and performed by Chadio
Produced by The Gumshoe Strut
