Rza to me is one of those transcendent souls...just changed the game entirely. You can hear the respect he has for Rick in the way he speaks. Speaks volumes to who Rick Rubin is. We all feed off of and are influenced by each other in some way. Unity...that's the biz right there! 🌍🌎🌏✌🙌🤙🖖
Robert Diggs, aka " Bobby Diggs", RZA, is definitely, Without A Doubt, The Epitome Of The Fully Evolved Artist/Producer. His accomplishments are Impeccable.
I dont mean to be so off topic but does anyone know a way to get back into an instagram account? I was stupid forgot my password. I appreciate any tips you can give me
Best interview ever. I've never heard RZA speak like this on his creative evolution through his career, being really "on" creatively, then losing it, finding it again. Rick's power is just to be totally present and receptive and you see it working even in this interview, how total respect between two people brings out the god energy. Thanks for doing this
I am the dictator of my own creativity. Thank you RZA, my brotha!! I needed that! And rick.... Oh rick.... THANK YOU! You are, to me, as influential to hiphop as RZA. You give so much so freely. THANK YOU!!
Ricks produced so much music since the 80s he can't remember individual beats and drums..etc and Rza right about Rick Rubin dude been involved in hip hop since the beginning.
Not related to the video, but its in my heart and i wanted to share this.... I wish people would care more for themselves and each other. I think that people should try harder for the ones they care about.
Ruler Zigzagzig Allah is my Cancer brother and has been the most influential producer in the golden era of hip hop to get me off of my ass and create the sound of the culture at its purest form...that raw gutter basement music from the soul ✊🏽
Rza been such an influential figure on me (and countless others) and I’ve been reading listening to his interviews n trying to get a feel for the man’s thinking…and he’s just always evolving and being more and more complete. I feel like he’s really hit this stride as the fully realized and complete artist. The true guru.
RZA I don't know what to say but I've been rocking with you guys from the gate I'm from down south but I've lived on Staten island in Mansor Harbour the jungle. I know what it's like to be that you know .
If this is the official broken record podcast of Rick Rubin I don't know why this s*** doesn't have millions of subscribers and views!!! I just found my new favorite thing to listen to!!! This is exclusive and I don't care if nobody else watches it but me. O yeah...👐👐👐👐👐👐👐👐👐👐👐👐👐👐👐👐👐👐👐👐👐👐👐👐👐👐👐👐👐👐👐👐👐👐👐👐👐👐👐👐👐👐👐👐👐👐👐👐👐👐👐👐👐👐👐👐👐👐👐👐👐👐👐👐👐👐👐👐👐👐👐👐🐅🔪👐
I feel like I'm getting all of the wutang easter eggs when he mentioned DJ Skane!!! He shouted him out of the 36 chambers album. Up from the 36 chammmberrrsss..... It's a ghost.... DJ Skane ....better known as the ying and the yang
The same way Hip-Hop broke into music, the RZA broke into Hip-Hop. Every now and then, somebody new has to come in, fearlessly, and shake things up. Love it.
Rza isnt exactly my favorite Producer, but i defintately based my style on his more than anybody else, rs.. #Salute from #Philly this podcast is for real #PRODUCERS not just #BeatMAKERS them 12 Jewels were so deep i had to write them down. Great conversation 💯💯💯
It's so interesting how different but similar RZA's and Rick's pov's are. They both operate from a standpoint of entitlement. Rick's was given to him, RZA gave it to himself.
This is Incredible. Brilliance!! I bought the first Wu-Tang album week it came out on cassette and played it on my walkman. Around this time the BIG earphones started being more mainstream. New level of listening from wire earphones that had foam on them...
I love , ABSOLUTELY LOVE, the fact that Rza brings up the “black music” thing. Not because I’m white but because it’s not a race/color thing. It’s just your thing, if it’s your thing. I’m an Italian American who grew up in the inner city of South Philadelphia. My parents were only 17 years older then me and divorced by the time I was 4 , so as a youngin’ I would hear different music being played in the house. James Brown, Randy Crawford, Sly, The Manhattans, and so on. A wide range of music from Funk to Disco. I gravitated to my mom, who was young herself, playing these 45’s on a little record player. Hip hop starts and I start digging in the crates very interested in the samples I heard on these older records. I would try to scratch the record. Play them on different speeds. Create loops by needle dropping or (on a cassette deck hit “play” “ rewind” “ play” ) and rhyme over the beats. I knew then this music thing , this hip hop thing was in my blood. Break dancing, graffiti, the whole culture. I was writting and freestyling by 10, DJing by 12, and producing by 16. Still going strong today. I’m just saddened by the far turn hip hop has taken in the last 10-15 years but we will always have ... The Golden Era
That was a truly Awesome and inspirational interview! It sounded just like a conversation between two guys interested in the same subject and eager to learn each other’s experiences in and around that subject? I especially love how the two giants of the game are passionately interested in one another’s creative process and reflecting on past works and mind sets. Thanks guys this was truly a treat and I could have easily listened for another hour!
I feel like maybe Bobcat produced that? I know he did the scratches, and I know he became a producer at some point, I just don’t know for sure that he produced that track. But I’m pretty sure it wasn’t Rick.
Rza is definitely a phenomenal producer but I hope he uses this time to create some more rhymes..Rza always been a dope MC and I want to hear more in the future
Ace Tone was the company Mr K built before Roland, popularizing the pushbutton, organ-top preset beat machine. RZA’s mention of pressing 2 buttons to get a pattern was how Frankie Beverly came up with “Joy and Pain” on pre-MIDI Roland CR-78, the first box from that tradition that offered user programmability. While Prince latched onto Linn LM-1 early on, seemed DMX, SP-12 and MPC were Roland’s only real competition in urban beatmaking, as Yamaha, Korg and Kawai couldn’t get arrested in the genre.
It kills me. You start out doing it because you love it. Success makes you over think yourself. Now you're doing it to impress the most for money and when you don't, you don't feel validated. You're still dope. Get inspired again. Be a fan. Sometimes you have to tickle your creativity.
❤ Commenters vote: what would the world benefit more from : A RZA produced beat that samples the riff and drum breaks from “Tom Sawyer” or a complete video of RZA singing “Tom Sawyer” at Karaoke?
@20:00 the reference for “So I dropped a half a G on a rented SP 1200 Sampler, and a Yamaha Four-Track The bass from the lab used to blow the fuckin' door back” it’s dope to hear the real accounts of real raps.
these talks are the SHIT. how cool is it to hear RZA talking about a Friday night with Method Man,,,,? and how he was boyz with the one white dude who lived in the their projects. Amazing insight into the early days of Golden-Age rap shit. This is some higher-level podcasting yo. All Hail Bobby Digital and Mr. Rick Rubin,,,, founding fathers of modern rap. Immortals.
To be honest, The Enter the 36th Chambers Art Cover looked interesting i took a chance buying the album and did not know what was happening in connecticut.
I don't like his beats now, I think he fell off but what he did with those first 5 albums will always make him one of the best ever to do it. Swordsman is one of the best songs he ever did.

I love how RZA takes the opportunity to ask Rick about the drum programming on LL tracks
Yo Rick, please interview GZA! THE GENIUS!
Jilm M hell yea
Yes please 🙏
When RZA speaks, you can just FEEL how much he loves this music
Real shit!
He's so deep into it. He had questions about Rick's work that he just haaad to ask because they are things he's always wanted to know.
Rza to me is one of those transcendent souls...just changed the game entirely. You can hear the respect he has for Rick in the way he speaks. Speaks volumes to who Rick Rubin is. We all feed off of and are influenced by each other in some way. Unity...that's the biz right there! 🌍🌎🌏✌🙌🤙🖖
Robert Diggs, aka " Bobby Diggs", RZA, is definitely, Without A Doubt, The Epitome Of The Fully Evolved Artist/Producer. His accomplishments are Impeccable.
rza has an amazing mind,, R=This dude literally remembers so many details and knowledge. THE ABBOTT
I love Rza, a unique artist who loves what he does
Petar Stoiljkovic and he was the best at what he did 💯
RZa sounds so passionate Everytime he speaks. You can hear where his heart at
Only because he out maneuvered the rest of the clan members from owning a piece of
the Wu🙌Tang brand.
I dont mean to be so off topic but does anyone know a way to get back into an instagram account?
I was stupid forgot my password. I appreciate any tips you can give me
@Dariel Lian Instablaster =)
Thank you for this. Rick sounds like a professional interviewer. Impressed. Of course RZA is the greatest.
the word professional is an understatement .
I ADMIRE YOU RZA. THANK YOU VERY MUCH FOR THE INSPIRATION.
Rza is Definitely My Favorite Producer, Creatively Wise.
Best interview ever. I've never heard RZA speak like this on his creative evolution through his career, being really "on" creatively, then losing it, finding it again.

A conversation between the greatest hiphop producers of all time.
Rick Rubin sounds very professional and RZA is consistent with his euthusiasm🎤EVERYTIME I HEAR HIM!!!
Rza a master and a student at the same time.
Like all truly great artists.
I could listen to these two converse all day long.
Talented, creative, pioneers.
Their music changed my life, and in many ways, saved my life.
This interview was so much better than when he was on Rogan's podcast x 10000000!!!
RZA is the best to ever do it love to see this G.O.A.T talk with Rick
RZA is one of the most smartest and most talented producers in the rap game ever. Such a blessing to have him drop so many jewels in this interview.
RZA and Rick Rubin, both LEGENDS. Great insight, great conversation. Loved this!
In the age of the short of attention span
Its great to see long form interview/podcast being enjoyed
Agreed. Well put
We’ve always been around: those who enjoy lfip. Flip 😎🤪
This was amazing i could listen rza talk for hours.
yes him and MF Doom
Rza is Awesome at his craft but still a humble being enough to ask Rick questions like a student. These cats are amazing!
Bobby Digital is one of my favorite albums. It's RZA's Yeezus
Listening to these two legends has inspired me to go in on this underground hip hop shit. Thanks yo
Nodoubt fam
A lot of Jewels dropped on this! Pay attention and listen! Respect!
Yeah man, for me 36 Chambers was the album made me want to sample and my stage name is homage to Abbot
Lol he, Early 90s Boot Camp and Mobb Deep is the reason why I make beats.
Ricks produced so much music since the 80s he can't remember individual beats and drums..etc and Rza right about Rick Rubin dude been involved in hip hop since the beginning.
Only after finding Broken Record. Rza a God. Rubin a God. Great episode

Beautiful words! I love hearing RZA talk
rick used the same ac/dc stab on "rock the bells", "it's the new style", and "slow & low".

I feel like I'm getting all of the wutang easter eggs when he mentioned DJ Skane!!! He shouted him out of the 36 chambers album.
Up from the 36 chammmberrrsss.....
It's a ghost....
DJ Skane ....better known as the ying and the yang
Carlton Manoxide Love the post Carlton but he refers to someone else as the “Ying and the Yang.” Sounds like “Mr. Yezakiah.”
That's true. You are correct. I see I'm not the only first hard wutang fan lol
The same way Hip-Hop broke into music, the RZA broke into Hip-Hop. Every now and then, somebody new has to come in, fearlessly, and shake things up. Love it.
Love to hear how ODB usually is part of RZAs ol hip hop history.
Been Reppin WU for like 80 CD's and my Nickname is Rick Rubin JR. This was an interview I've been waiting for.
It on ya 🧠
👐
Phenomenal listening to two legends, innovators and masters of the art of beatmaking and music production just shoot the breeze.
I always felt blessed to be coming up during the golden age of the
Wu -Tang. Nothing was better than the early 90s of rap.
So much passion when RZA recollects his upbringing.
Rza isnt exactly my favorite Producer, but i defintately based my style on his more than anybody else, rs.. #Salute from #Philly this podcast is for real #PRODUCERS not just #BeatMAKERS them 12 Jewels were so deep i had to write them down. Great conversation 💯💯💯
It's so interesting how different but similar RZA's and Rick's pov's are. They both operate from a standpoint of entitlement. Rick's was given to him, RZA gave it to himself.
Everybody's interpretation of what hip hop could be!!! What made hip hop special
This is Incredible. Brilliance!! I bought the first Wu-Tang album week it came out on cassette and played it on my walkman. Around this time the BIG earphones started being more mainstream. New level of listening from wire earphones that had foam on them...
Broken Record Podcast is a Wu's Wu of legendary legends.
Its beautiful to hear 2 geniuses go back and forth for an hour +
His resume in the beginning is nothing short of legendary.
Sober Rza making Enter the 36 Chambers . wow. And yet we get FD up to it . just shows u don't need it as much as we think
I love , ABSOLUTELY LOVE, the fact that Rza brings up the “black music” thing. Not because I’m white but because it’s not a race/color thing. It’s just your thing, if it’s your thing.

I feel like maybe Bobcat produced that? I know he did the scratches, and I know he became a producer at some point, I just don’t know for sure that he produced that track. But I’m pretty sure it wasn’t Rick.
Saw him live in UK nottingham rock city with public enemy and eric b and rakim.
Two great minds having a discussion. Love it
Amazing two of the best producers just building love it ✊🏽
RZA as a MC just as dope as a producer
Fusion of the five elements, searchin for higher intelligence.....
...understanding makes truth crystal clear.
Rick Rubin is a damn legend in the game.
Rza is definitely a phenomenal producer but I hope he uses this time to create some more rhymes..Rza always been a dope MC and I want to hear more in the future
Father of the hip hop Renaissance
Just listened to the Forever album again and RZA killed every verse had some of the most stand out Bars to me 🔥 🔥 🔥
👐 Me and The RZA connect. 👐
blow a fuse, you lose, half ass fools get demolished and bruised!
Ahhh... only some will catch that
@@icebergslim1874 define the fuse or you live to confuse
People need to do more interviews about Poetic The Grym Reaper cause he doesn't get mentioned as much and he was one of the Greatest MCs Of All Time
Icons of the culture. Greats!!!
Great interview, very good details in the roots of Wu and hip hop
Rza. When will we be getting The Cure ?!
thank you for this podcast.
Golden Age of Hip Hop, Respect It!
31:53 now the same thing is starting to happen more and more here in the US as well! Crazy
Brilliant interview. Brilliant vibe throughout.
Love rza man, wu tang is legendary. Legendary beats.
Loved this interview! So psyched to find out Killamry had a new album after he mention 9th Prince his little brother. Forgot about those dudes.

Fucking respect of music. God damn great souls. This inspires me. Conversations every musician needs to hear.
Great conversation between Masters.
In my world RZA the producer Goat.
WUTANGWURLDWIDE
GOD FIRST Y'ALL
enter the 36 chambers is my favorite production from RZA, i hope they can return to that essence in the future.
I guess you haven’t listened to griselda then
Thanks a lot! 👍👍
Holy fuck Rza respecting Neil. God damnit man. What a beautiful fucking composer
❤
Commenters vote: what would the world benefit more from : A RZA produced beat that samples the riff and drum breaks from “Tom Sawyer” or a complete video of RZA singing “Tom Sawyer” at Karaoke?
The outer pleasures are much more temporary than inner wisdom - Rick Rubin
Inspiration❤💛💚
A true Artist and great mind.
@20:00 the reference for “So I dropped a half a G on a rented SP
1200 Sampler, and a Yamaha Four-Track
The bass from the lab used to blow the fuckin' door back” it’s dope to hear the real accounts of real raps.

Peace! Bong Bong!!!

Made me see the brooklyn zoo video
Beautiful

Awesome podcast!
To be honest, The Enter the 36th Chambers Art Cover looked interesting i took a chance buying the album and did not know what was happening in connecticut.
RZA y'all music is off the chain with the wu would bring a new album out..
Any chance of it
Lets not forget, RZA just colabed with Good Humor on a new Ice Cream Truck Melody. The original one had racist roots.
RZA always says the W in sWords. Sharp like Swword.
its the new york accent lol
I don't like his beats now, I think he fell off but what he did with those first 5 albums will always make him one of the best ever to do it. Swordsman is one of the best songs he ever did.
