Talk:Rick Rubin

message: He's never been married. There are straight bachelors like David Souter and Philip Seymour Hoffman. Still, I do wonder if there's a reason behind his never having been married. Just curious. jcm 6/12/8 —Preceding unsigned comment added by 143.228.129.9 (talk) 15:20, 12 June 2008 (UTC)

message: Rubin may have executive produced the original Public Enemy recording of "Bring The Noise", but he had absolutely nothing to do with the Anthrax/Public Enemy collaborative version done in 1991. I replaced that incorrect "fact" with a cover version that he did indeed produce. --CJ Marsicano 21:43, 8 February 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: Alright, you may be right. I got that "fact" from this page of the MTV feature, which gives the impression that the collaboration was his idea. Korny O'Near 16:25, 9 February 2006 (UTC)

message: "audio compression" is not necessarily a characteristic of Rubin's production. This happens at the mastering level, where the waveform is levelled and maximised, and "valleys" are eliminated, resulting in a "squashed", over-loud, sound. Rubin has no input at this level; mastering engineers work for the label, not the artists and producers. Blood Sugar Sex Magic was mastered beautifully, as was the original South of Heaven CD in 1988 (mastered by Barry Diament). Many, many artists' CDs are maximised and very loud, but the "produced by..." doesn't have much to do with this. Rubin-produced Stadium Arcadia is coming out on limited edition vinyl, mastered by Steve Hoffman. --D. Kapusta 18:23, 12 July 2006 (UTC)

message: Can anyone provide a valid source of confirmation that Rick Rubin is indeed producing The Faint's next album? I could not personally find factual statements in which either Rubin, The Faint, or Saddle Creek Records has confirmed this. Any type of citation would be appreciated. --Felixir 13:57, 9 July 2006 (UTC)
thread_title:  "The Faint" 

message: He currently is best known for producing every Red Hot Chili Peppers album since the groundbreaking Blood Sugar Sex Magik.
really? i came here looking for info on his colaboration w/ johnny cash... did someone just throw that in there b/c they love the chili peppers, or because this is really taken to be his biggest work?

message: He did not produce this record; it was produced by Michael Beinhorn. I think several other items on the list are suspect as well... -Daniel Villalobos 20:48, 2 August 2006 (UTC)

message: The Production Trademarks section is highly opinionated. I don't know Rick Rubin's history well enough to change much, but I am going to try to rewrite some of the wording to be less subjective.

This year's photos show him *much* thinner. Should get a thinner photo in here. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 173.56.108.186 (talk) 04:22, 1 August 2010 (UTC)
thread_title: we need a picture of this guy

message: That list is insanely long and I guarantee that no GA or FA has a list like that. We could leave a few of the more notable albums in prose and then reference the list somewhere, like See also, or main article . . . Its just too darn long. What does everyone think?

thread_title: Fair use rationale for Image:Rick rubin.jpg

message: Apart from stating that he has Jewish roots, and a very brief mention of his parents professions, there is nothing on the article about his family. It is not even stated if his parents are dead or alive, nor if he has any siblings. There is also nothing about his personal relationships, past or present. Facts about his family and relationships should be included in a biographical article. Werdnawerdna (talk) 04:40, 5 October 2008 (UTC)
