Rick Rubin's amazing, by the way. I just need to say that.
Unfortunately, like, homework and school wasn't the thing that I was obsessing over. It was, you know, music and making music and how to like - and drum machines. And we met Rick Rubin, and Rick Rubin had a drum machine. So I would just cut school and go to his house - his dorm room.
I met Rick Rubin through Cat Collins, a DJ friend of mine that had worked for Rubin at American Recordings.
It was Rick's Rubin idea to have the 'Brooklyn' verse repeat. It already was a story, but having that made it a folk song. Instead of this rambling march of verses, Rick understands that music needs hooks. You need that repeated chorus, that everyone can sing along to.
Rick Rubin's undulating face hair is just as famous as his body of work. In homage to the yogis he read about as a boy on Long Island, Rubin hasn't shaved since he was 23. It's long been his registered trademark.
Rick Rubin eats no cheese.
You know what, if Rick Rubin would produce another Geto Boys album I'd do it.
Dave Fortman really helped me appreciate Rick Rubin as a producer.
The biggest thing Rick Rubin taught me is that you don't get any extra credit by doing everything yourself.
I'll make a song with Rick Rubin, a song with Beyonce, a song with Lenny Kravitz. I just believe in making good music. I'm not trying to section myself off into just making hard-core rap music.
Rick Rubin is interesting. He doesn't wear shoes, I think? No wait, he wears shoes.
I was writing before I met Rick and actually I created the band before Rick Finch. Basically, the first album, I wrote. Who's to say what would've happened? Rick was very talented too.
What I said, what are you [Rick Rubin] going to do with me that nobody else has been able to do to sell records with me?
Rick Rubin is super intriguing to me because he has become this god producer in completely drastically different genres, which very few people have done.
If you're working with a producer like Rick Rubin or whatever, you sing each line probably 30 different ways. Each time they're like, "Can you try it this way, can you try it that way?" That's each line in the song, for each song.

You can really walk around a song and completely, if it's a good song, look at it from a lot of different angles. Johnny Cash with Rick Rubin illustrated that perfectly.
