“Double Up” – Exclusively Out Now On Bandcamp: odario02.bandcamp.com/album/the-situation

Wide release October 17, 2025

Building on the momentum of his acclaimed single “The Situation” with Mad Professor and Yolanda Sargeant, hip-hop storyteller, broadcaster, and curator Odario unveils his next chapter with “Double Up.” The track marks the latest collaboration with UK dub legend Mad Professor and Toronto producer Chaix, blending the raw poetics of hip-hop with the deep textures of dub for a striking sound rooted in authenticity and evolution.

With his upcoming album Good Things Take Time set for release in the new year, Odario positions himself at the intersection of two musical worlds that have shaped him from childhood. Produced by Chaix, mixed by longtime collaborator Tim Abraham, and mastered by João Carvalho, “Double Up” arrives as a bold declaration of Odario’s place within Canada’s hip-hop landscape, while reinforcing his connection to dub culture.

The worlds of hip-hop, dub, and soul collide in mesmerizing fashion on Odario’s latest single, The Situation—a deep, hypnotic groove that brings together UK dub pioneer Mad Professor and Canadian soul singer Yolanda Sargeant. This genre-blurring track, recorded at Mad Professor’s legendary Ariwa Studios in South London, is a lush blend of analog warmth, beat poetry, and sonic innovation.
