ABOUT PLAYBOI CARTI
In just a few short years, rapper Playboi Carti has amassed over 19 billion streams worldwide, with a global appeal that has steadily placed him within the upper echelon of new stars. Carti has been unstoppable since the release of his 2017 single “Magnolia,” as its meteoric rise garnered cosigns from Beyoncé and features on series like Atlanta. His self-titled album has accumulated nearly 7.8 billion streams to date after debuting at #12 on the Billboard 200 chart where it spent 63 weeks. The following year, Carti dropped his album Die Lit, debuting at Number 3 on the Billboard 200, boasting collaborations like Lil Uzi Vert on “Shoota,” “Poke It Out” with Nicki Minaj, “Love Hurts” with Travis Scott and many more.

ABOUT MIKE DEAN

Renowned for providing the secret sauce to the world’s biggest artists, Mike Dean is the go-to when they need a veteran producer's touch, a keen ear for engineering and mixing, or even a searing guitar solo. His career began in the early ‘90s with legacy-making work for southern rap icons—and fellow Texas natives—Scarface, UGK, and Devin the Dude. Since then, Mike Dean has evolved to blend hip-hop, pop, experimental rock, and soul into a potent concoction that’s both malleable and uniquely his own. “Producers should never get stuck in time. They should always be time travelers living in the future,” he said.

Throughout the 2010s, Mike Dean played a crucial role in the realization of seminal albums such as Kanye West’s My Beautiful Dark Twisted Fantasy and Watch the Throne, Frank Ocean’s Blonde, Beyoncé’s Lemonade, and Travis Scott’s Astroworld. He also produced on Metro and Future's albums *We Don’t Trust You* and We Still Don’t Trust You, both reaching #1 on the Billboard charts. Mike Dean has described himself as “the finisher” for his ability to collaborate and expand on the work of other producers and artists, bringing a shared vision to life. He’s also helped craft some of the decade’s biggest singles like “Sicko Mode,” “N*ggas in Paris,” and “Mercy.”

His debut album, 4:20, showcased his talents as an arranger, synth player, and guitarist. The songs are textured and psychedelic, filled with surprising sonic twists that rarely keep the listener in one place for long. It’s a well-earned moment in the spotlight for one of popular music’s most pivotal behind-the-scenes figures. As a solo artist, Mike Dean has sold out two headline shows at the Echoplex in Los Angeles, and sold out the Wiltern Theatre, bringing the best production the venue ever saw. He toured with The Weeknd as an opening act on the sold-out After Hours Till Dawn stadium tour in the USA, where he added synths and guitars and his signature sound to the headline show.

He was the opener on The Weeknd’s sold-out After Hours Til Dawn stadium tour in Europe and South America, and also performed keys, guitar, and sax during The Weeknd's set. Mike Dean also scored the entirety of HBO's The Idol alongside Abel Tesfaye and Sam Levinson, and stars as himself in the series.
