His guitar solo on Kanye's Devil in a new dress is magical.

Kanye West's partnership with Mike Dean is one of the greatest partnerships in the history of entertainment, not just music. The material they put out is amazing.

I grew up out with Mike, I remember watching his garage bands at his house, he played very different music back then.

Dude is truely living the dream. Humble surroundings amidst stars, good tree, old and still rocking fitteds while jamming out to music all day. You can't ask for much more seriously. He's just chillin...

Throughout all the 90's I would see Mike Deen on Scarface's albums and I just thought he is so underrated and I also thought he was black. Anyhow he is a legend and I think better than Dre!
