Just to see the reaction and LOOKS on everybody's face in the venue when he spittin the shyt, that introspective shyt he KNOWN for with the live instruments hittin.

It's an amazing music experience.

Yeah that was fire.

I'm thinking damn, how many people have as much staying power in the industry as Mike Dean? 1992, he's out there producing for all the Geto Boys and UGK. 2023, he's producing for Travis Scott and the Weeknd. I mean shyt, he's produced albums for rappers who weren't even born when he started.

Mike dean is definitely a music guru. Being able to evolve with the times is not an easy feat, let alone in music where it changes damn near daily.

The live element on this allowed face to shine in all his musical glory. Wish we had more rap shows curated to the strengths of an artist.

He need to do this live not run around on stage with a mic and dj.

50 years into hip hop I still have an issue with live shows from the genre. There needs to be a push to strengthen this part of the culture. I seen all the greats I could. My criticism is not hate.

Went to his last farewell show run back in 2021 back at HOBs here in Houston and it was just as amazing. Him playing the guitar and just making the show so intimate.
From about 7 years ago him on stage playing guitar.

Incredible. :whew:

Face be like :ohlawd::banderas::wow: when he is performing. He feels this sh*t. He didn't have to say it during the show, but by closing eyes while reciting his lyrics :ahh: and getting hyped hearing the band, you can tell he loves the music. As if he is performing it for the 1st time. :obama: After all these years, the joy and love for the art hasn't left him.

Good job leading the band too. Mike Dean, his anchor, in the cut too. :skip:

The lyrics are just.:whew: Shows you how timeless his art is, the quality of it all. Face doesn't rap like most rappers. He is in a lane of his own. It shows. Mike Dean said it best: "They ain't got soul like you".
