Mike Dean's arguably one of the most pivotal producers in hip hop right now. His resumé dates back to the early 90's when he was working with UGK, Scarface, Geto Boys and many other important artists. For the past several years, he's been working on some of the most important albums of our generation with the likes of Jay-Z, Kanye West, Beyonce, Madonne and Kid Cudi. It's safe to say that he's proven to be one of the most important producers in hip hop. While he's been in the game for over 25 years, creating quality music still seems to be driving him on a day to day basis.
Mike Dean hit Instagram today to reveal some of the projects he's been working on this year and they're definitely some of the ones we've been waiting for. In the photo he posted of some folders on his computer, he reveals that he's been working on new music with Kanye West, Travis Scott's Astroworld, Desiigner's highly anticipated project as well as Quavo and Travis Scott's joint album. Along with those, there's a folder for Grace Carter, Jay-Z's mother as well as the first signee to M.W.A, Dice SoHo. While there's yet to be a release date for any of those projects, Dean's definitely hard at work trying to get all of those projects ready.
Just last week, Travis Scott and Quavo confirmed that their joint album was shipped off to mixing. While Travis Scott's previously worked heavily with Mike Dean, it's unsure whether Dean will be strictly mixing the project or if he also contributed production to it.
