deem spencer is getting into the flow. The 27-year-old Queens native retraces his upbringing while wading towards a hopeful future on his fourth album adultSW!M.

On adultSW!M, deem's pensive mood hasn't left - it's evolved. deem showcases his evocative bars with collaborations alongside DRAM, MAVI, Orion Sun and additional production from MICHELLE's own Julian Kaufman, Pip & Stelios, Spenser Williams and others.

An ode to finding serenity after the storm, deem's approach to his most ambitious project yet is equally meditative."Love brought me to this place where I'm thinking about building something that lasts and making something of myself," said deem.

"It's started making me feel very mature in thinking about the future." "I wanted to create something intentional here; something that speaks to the future I am working to manifest and could live with me for years to come.

The album was inspired by hopeful, romantic thoughts that see me attaining great success, starting a family and being a great provider.

However, great nuance is provided as these thoughts are cautioned by fear and more morbid perceptions of the future.

All in all, I do hope to start a family, build my home and a great legacy. But I'll have to do it as the water levels rise and the world burns down."
