#Unsocialaes Studio Session EP 3
The #unsocialaes studio session series was created to help the artists who needs help creating an environment that assists with putting together not only timeless amazing records but a network that is helping the future of the Chicago music scene/industry. Led by legendary producers and engineers DJ Hustlenomics of the Hustlenomics Empire & Solar Five of OnGaud productions, this series will highlight some of the very best that are coming from the city and leading the new Chicago wave..
CantBuyDeem is helping lead the new Chicago wave for many reasons. Some of the most important ones truly show his ability to stay dedicated to his artistry while at the same time reaching new creative levels many just haven’t thought of yet. Seriously, it’s not a lot this artist can’t do. This artist just put out a rock album this year that consists of some his most powerful records, right after his classic “Reality Raps” album and movie release from last year that received many recognitions and awards. Both releases have some amazing merchandise drops that are super reflective of Deem’s want to bring together community through his love for music or his love for fashion and art overall. Deem’s ability to adapt on any beat he chooses however is what makes him an artist that is focused on uplifting the communities he is from. Each project he has carries powerful bar play and features from some of the most consistent artists also coming from the music scene..
But it’s Deem’s want to have some amazing collaborations on his albums that sets him apart. Because of this Deem has become someone the scene/industry knows will get you connected with the many music genres that lives here. It’s what makes CantBuyDeem a true representation of the Chicago New Wave. He has always been about collaboration and he knows just how powerful unity can be for the future of the city. What will be realized soon is just how knowledgeable CantBuyDeem is about the hip-hop history in his city. Again his 2023 “Reality Raps” release is really bringing together so many amazing artists and producers that make up the music scene/industry from the past eight years even. From the legendary Ongaud production drop being heard again, to having legendary artists feature like Mfn Melo, Rufis Sims, Tierra de Shane, Calez and so many others. Deem has always been about connecting the scene/industry in his own creative ways. From his amazing entrepreneurship to his ability to show up for community. CantBuyDeem is one of those artists that is helping shape the future of the Chicago music scene/industry one amazing statement at a time..
Deem’s presence has always been very visible since the blog era and if you hear his music it shows. Being apart of the Higher Learning collective that consisted of artists like Black Ralphy L, AJ Peace, Jinx Tha Natural, Roy French and others is only a small glance into the different communities that Deem is apart of. Him having collaborated with amazing community orgs like Englewood Branded, Healthy Hood, Crimedrought and others is just another small example of how much of a pillar Deem is to the community..
Lately Deem has been focused on getting more of the details together for his next album release “CD’s, DVD’s, & Loose Squares vol 2”. Each record is completely different from the other and it’s the next chapter to the previous release from 2022. Even more importantly this new album is a collaboration between Deem and the legendary drill music pioneer DJ Hustlenomics. Since both of these artists have locked in there has been nothing but phenomenal creating and building on what will be one of CantBuyDeem’s most anticipated releases..
With features coming from Joel Q, Stock Marley, JEFF K%NZ, Call me SY!, King Crybby, Hayward, Chris Crack, Rizzi Konway and more we are super excited for this next body of work coming from CantBuyDeem. This studio session consisted of mixing down three records and building with well known fashion model Carl Veney who has appeared on Latin X, Surround Sound fashion show, Chicago fashion week and more. The conversation between them was about album rollout ideas and Veney being one of the models for the album back cover. There was also a celebration for Deem releasing the “Dilla” record, which is the first single from the upcoming album. So there was a lot of planning for album rollout and just overall getting folks to be in tune with the album when it drops..
While we wait for the album release get more in tune with this artist by listening to the rest of his music and see more photos of the studio session below..
