Chase Murphy & Gio Dee pay homage to the city of Boston with inspiring new single “Poison”.
Boston’s very-own Chase Murphy is back again with another banger. First of all, we LOVE a good “hometown hero” record. Much respect to the artists that pay homage to their city. Murphy and Massachusetts big-timer Gio Dee teamed up to bring us lustrous bars and an even more epic music video for their latest single “Poison.” I want to highlight how impressive it was to see the historical landmarks of Boston displayed throughout the video.
From the John Hancock Tower to the iconic Red Sox Carl Yastrzemski statue outside of Fenway Park, Chase Murphy appreciatively captures the essence and culture of his city while respectfully poppin’ his shh…
“And I can’t get no love, girl you know it’s poison. So it’s best I avoid it, ima go pop my sh*t, you seen what I’ve done, girl I’m braggadocious.”
Quite seasoned in the game, Gio Dee savvily leads the track and sets the tone for Murphy to follow up and smoothly close out the chorus.
“I’m staying focused, pop a bottle for the toast. Y’all gotta switch up approaches.”
Behind the enamoring visual concept is a heartfelt yet motivational message; an ode to the city that made them if you will. Without a doubt, “Poison,” is set to be an anthem for Boston, especially with such a monumental promotional video. Shot and edited by Chase Murphy’s visual media group Happy Belated Media, the team has a pretty extensive and gifted video production catalog; “Poison,” is the newest addition.

More From Chase Murphy
On January 18th, the emerging artist out of Boston released his latest project on the 15th anniversary of his mother’s tragic passing. While our condolences are definitely with Chase, it seems like each one of the fifteen years that passed have made Murphy that much more resilient and intentional with his approach to music. He describes this project as “a new beginning” for a new stage of enlightenment.
He found ways to articulate his deepest thoughts that include feelings of frustration and extreme pessimism. Today, he see’s the glass “half full” as he approaches every decision with the utmost confidence. The six song project features stories of Chase Murphy’s life experiences over carefully chosen instrumentals. His style of music may remind you of Joey Badass, Mac Miller or Russ, but Chase remains in a league of his own finding slick ways to tell his story. [Full Post]
