Rick Rubin TOP 5 Studio Moments 

0:37 99 Problems 5:09 Give It Away 6:35 Black Sabbath - 13 9:37 Dixie Chicks 12:09 System of a Down

I'm so fascinated by Rick Rubin. This man produced a giant handful of the best metal AND the best rap, AND the best pop albums of all time, back when those worlds didn't interact. His ability to produce hit tracks in seemingly any genre is just amazing

He is so chill. Rick gets it. He doesn’t force art. He relaxes and let the universe speak and find the way.

the more I learn about Rick Rubin the more I respect the man

This should be called "The 5 Times Rick was on video in The Studio"

I love Jay-Z's energy in the studio. Very relaxed and appreciative of all the work the producers are doing

That Black Album session never gets old....

I love how we're witnessing these landmark seminal moments in music history and the narrator sounds bored shitless 😂

Regardless if u like him or nah Rick Rubin is one of the most amazing producers in the industry. His success speaks for itself. He’s doing something right to be this legendary right?!

fact that Mike D was just there hanging out

My top 5 Rick Rubin Studio Moments: 1) RUNDMC/Aerosmith "Walk This Way" the first time 2 genres from different ends of the spectrum, Rock&Roll & HipHop came together on a major scale, this hit the masses big time. (note: The Beastie Boys first record "Rock Hard" in 1984/85 was the Beasties rapping over sampled AC/DC's "Back In Black". Also on the flip side of this record "Momentum" had Rick acting also as their DJ DoubleRR, where he scratched different genres of records by Led Zeppelin (hey hey mama), etc... 2) BeastieBoys "Licensed to Ill" the entire album. Ricks use of different rock records and old school soul & hiphop samples catapulted the Beasties with their entire own sound. 3) JOHNNY CASH "Hurt" The Re-flip of Nine Inch Nails song "Hurt" sang by Johnny Cash at the end of his career and after suffering some major losses, was a very unique and special, yet eerily brilliant record. 4) Tom Petty "Wildflowers" the entire album This album was an instant classic once Rick & Tom got together and recorded some monumental material, still on heavy heavy rotation by millions. 5) Adele. What he did with Adele & her album, was well, fucking BRILLIANT. Now, I've got more of what I think was some Top Studio moments of Rick Rubin, but these come to mind first. Rick is definitely in my Top 5 favorite producers of all time. Thanks, Raytona $ickWid'It Records. @Raytona500 (IG, Twitter, etc...)

I must say that "Hurt" by Johnny Cash should have been on top of this list. Rick Ruben is an inovator he is able to hear and or create abosuletly amazing tracks and direction.

Impossible to pick a top 5 of his best because there are so many, but for me...... Slayer - Reign in Blood The Cult - Electric Beastie Boys - Licensed to Ill Trouble - Trouble Johnny Cash - American IV: The Man Comes Around

You missed probably the most significant moment- Slayer. Not only the first non rap band he put on Def Jam but there sound on Reign in Blood was phenomenal compared to there previous albums. That was the beginning of what solidified them as Metal Gods

Rage, Audioslave and Black Sabbath. Brad is so good.

*Not too notie* -best advice ever, that not all musicians would listen to. Also, making a Sabbath album after their "glory days" must be such a difficult challenge.

"The architects....." Facts, bro!!! 💚

I was a year ahead of Rick in high school. I wonder if he’d remember me. I was a musician and the first into punk and did the look. I’d sure remember me, but he’s lived a lot of life. It’s nice to have a connection to someone so successful and I appreciate and respect his work. I remember where he hung out in the cafeteria (our school was cool), I remember he liked to wear black, but I honestly never saw it coming! Then, one day I was walking on the boardwalk and saw a Beastie Boys video being filmed. We lived in a great place.

Rick Rubin is a gift from God, like the bands music he helped shape. Without music how much duller would life be, for me, it's almost unthinkable. Music is as essential as breathing

Brad Wilk on the drum set for Black Sabbath!! I had no idea

Love these videos. Nicely put together.

love you bro for this content really appreciated

I honestly would have never called myself a Jay Z fan but then I listened to Rick Rubins podcast with Joe Rogan a few days ago and the way he described Jay Zs creative process floored me.. So there I am listening to Jay Z now (not in this video, obviously the algorithm got me)

Suggesting NIN's Hurt to Johnny Cash...

Crazy that Mike D was there to witness history.

Rick laying down producing!

Love Brad Wilk man. Freakin kick ass drummer.

99 problem is Ice-T creative work !

The definition of a visionary. Rick Rubin.

Great to see how humble Jay Z is at a young age. Great kid

How is nobody talking abt rick rubin laying on the bed like a teenage girl kicking his lil feet. All time favorite rubin clip

great video. To see the footage like that makes it easier to dream it up!! yeah

Awesome Channel, Subscribed.

Any track from the Beastie Boys Licensed to ill album needs to be there.

I had no fuckin idea he had a part in “give it away”!!! No wonder it’s such a good song & one of my favorite songs til this day

DANZIG

Telling Flea to pull back a bit on give it away was fucking genius.

Great compilation!

Damn. I did not know Brad Wilk did some work with Sabbath. Interesting to know!

You need more subscribers man, love the videos keep them coming !!! - Toronto

I love when A.I. tries to sounds A.I....haha so funny. Cool video

you mean studio moments on tape… there is a lot of other amazing work of him… slayer, johnny cash, mars volta, beastie boys, masters of reality… and on and on… the list is endless… fantastic rick rubin studiomoments.

Thanks for finding such epic content 🔥

Video starts at 0:40

Tom Petty "Wildflowers" and Kanye West "Yeezus" would have made the list for me

Would love to see any footage if they had a camera around during the recording of Reign in Blood

Rubin's advice to the Dixie Chicks "rewrite your lyrics" LOL

I just heard Rubin on Rogan explaining how Jay Z came up with the lyrics at the studio in 20-30 mins.. just humming and listening the beat. and didn't write a single thing on paper.

Jay-Z rhyming over Fugazi's Closed Captioned = Pure Fire

Rick rubin is not to be trifled with, the range and variety are baffling

Chillest man alive

The Sabbath one where rik is just chilling on a window box ! That is just sensible that how normal people would be listening to that record !

is it just me is there explanation on all of these except the last one?

Master at work

he is THE MAN.

Wow. No Slayer!? IMO he is tied to them and they helped each other progress IMO.

Missing the mars volta-deloused in the comatorium!!

Wow. Greatest job in the world, I want to help artists like this

Ozzy and the beard of Rick Rubin,funny picture 🤣

geniuuussss!

System of a down 🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘 That's my favorite Black Sabbath god's

"A hit is a hit"

thought this was going to be five videos of Rick laying down on a couch while a band works really hard on a record!

"Musicians" don't understand that they need help...but they really fucking do. Love Rick for that.

Is that the guy from Gotye

About The Chicks, band #4, his suggestion to “rewrite all the words” was entirely dismissed by them.

Judging by the System segment . . . He took a nap to cash a check . . . And they were happy about it.

Awesome video. Subbed.

In the first clip with jay-z, who is the other producer Rick is working with?

Whats that song from System of a Down?? Never heard it!! Pleaseeee

great vid homie

The Johnny cash sessions should be here.

I'm surprised there isn't a section (or sections) on 1985/1986. He worked with Slayer and Beastie Boys simultaneously. Used Kerry King from Slayer at least one (possibly two) Beastie Boys track(s).

excelente video saludos

1rst SOAD album was so raw.

It’s my goal to get my songs good enough in which point Rick will listen and want to help make them what they should be

Danzig + Slayer🤘🏻🤘🏻🤘🏻

Biggest takeaway: "don't go too notey."

Top five you got to be kidding me

I love that Mike D is there !!!!

there is no such thing as top studio moments for rick rubin, because every rick rubin moment on top)

Where's Slayer/Reign in Blood ?

Awesome !!! Anything from Van Halen with Andy Johns ?

Pretty weird to include this SOAD thing at the end where Rubin literally doesn't say or do anything. No Johnny Cash? No Tom Petty? No Rage, Run the Jewels, Slayer, etc? I just don't get it.

they had brad wilk on drums for 13 thats cool

So he basically just tells you what sounds good to him and that's it lol

This should have been a countdown from number 4.

I was hoping for Slayer.

Oh look it's Rick Rubin not knowing how to work a soundboard sitting at the soundboard pressing the right buttons😂

At least the first 3 were also mixed by Andrew Scheps which also have a great hairstyle lol

whats the system song??

whats that system of a down track called?

the real top moments are not even recorded

Why does it never get mentioned that 99 Problems is a cover of an Ice T track?

The Mike stands for money and the D is for diamonds!

99 Problems is possibly Jay and Rick's best song. Everything about that song is perfect.

What is the System of a Down song? So good!

When Geezer laughed, I thought it was John McAfee for a second. 🧐

Slayer Reign in Blood is number 1

I like the footage. Would be curious as to what Rick thinks.
