Shultz talking about having taste while rocking that cut is crazy 😂
😂😂😂
Bro got that Hitler fade 😆
why didn't they finish the fade🤣
Looking like a Knot-See wearing 2016 Five Four Club hand me downs
4 people is too many to really get to interview the guest because of all the sidebars that keep cutting off the guest
But Schulz's point is more important
@@MrJesusdoesntsave his response to their point is important. Unless he’s asking another question that doubles down, he should let them answer what he asked then ask the next question. I’m here for Schulz, but also his guest
Flagrant does interviews? I thought they just fucked around for 2 hours.
Schulz could easy get rid of 2 of the 3 of these dudes but gotta respect the loyalty
ahaahah good one... @@MrJesusdoesntsave
Schulz do not compare yourself to Rick Rubin 💀
Right!? Schultz actually brings something to this world.
Rick Rubin is never seems to touch the art, but touches the artist. If the artist was a sculptor, he'd say, _"What is your objective? Is your chisel sharp enough? That mallet is too heavy for carving something that delicate. Leave that piece of stone intact. Carve that piece of stone away. Refine that piece of stone. That needs polishing. What do your instincts say? Don't forget the fundamentals of what made you."_ There are producers like Bob Rock, who pick up a mallet and chisel and work with the artist, which can alter the dynamics of the piece. And there's Rick Rubin, who is the muse, analyst, and critic, who observes from afar and watches the artists bring the sculpture come to life.
Beautifully stated
So he found a way to profit without actual work.
@@ohmyv3gatron So consultants don't work? That's news to them.
@@jdovma1 consultant is a broad term…across many fields. When I was a software developer one company called me a consultant abd would send me to clients to work on site for a month or so until their needs were met. It sounds like he’s just saying “keep this. Ditch that. Yeah that sounds cool” Of course I’m merely speculating
This is incredibly beautifully put
The good thing is that Rick Rubin doesn't care if people understand what he does. Because too many people clearly don't. All that matters is the artists he works with do. LL Cool J talks about how Rubin taught him song structure and picked which beats to go with and praises him to no end. Anthony Kiedis of Red Hot Chili Peppers said the lyrics to Under The Bridge was just a poem he scribbled at the back of a notebook and didn't think it was worth anything, and Rubin twisted his arm to read it to him and immediately told him that was his next hit and got the band to hear it and the rest is history. He's the reason behind Run DMC putting rock guitars in their beats, and ultimately collabing with Aerosmith. He's in the artists' ear saying go this way, go that way. He's a muse. And every artist knows what a muse is worth. If you don't, stop calling yourself an artist.
He’s basically a coach but for creatives. Psychologically, there is great benefits to a coach, so long as the coach has the right intentions, is asking the right questions, working towards the outcomes the coachee actually wants. It is quite clear that’s what Rick Rubin does, and that’s amazing. CEOs and sports stars commonly have coaches (not literal sports coaches, professional coaching for mindset, motivation, goals etc), I think it’s very reasonable to assume creatives can benefit similarly. I’m a psychologist and I completely understand the stigma surrounding “life coach” type people, but I think Rick Rubins track record is enough :)
LET HIM TALK MAN!
Exactly, too many people and too many wanting to show off and mayve a bit too much ego, and cant stay quiet.
Let's not forget that Rick Rubin hands on produced some of the biggest icons in rap: LL Cool J, Public Enemy, The Beastie Boys, etc. Also, people need to learn what a producer's job really is. Quincy Jones, George Martin (for the most part), Jimmy Iovine didn't make the music themselves, they guided projects.
They cutting Russ off everytime he tries to explain something...hectic
Could barely hear russ talk. Everyone talking at the same time.
Like always with andrews interviews
Andrew keeps cutting Russ off and over talking him. That shit is annoying
Rick Rubin is the knife sharpener. You may be able to cut a record but with Rick in the room that shit is gonna be sharp, edgy and clean.
Russ was one of my favorite artists to listen to us hs/college. I gotta keep up with dude again.
He’s only gotten better with time
The best analogy to use is that he's like an editor who has your best interest at heart. somethings not clear, make it clear, is this clear but not resonating, cut it out, somethings not being said that need to be said, say it, is this following an overall theme? no, cut it.
It’s very disappointing not hearing one thing about Rick Rubin’s rich hip hop history
Russ Made a perfect description of the role of Rick Rubin (Source/Pure/Authenticity/Great Taste)
I read his book: "The Creativ act" at the Moment . I could recommend it to every Artist and people who want to improve their creativity 💯💯💯
It’s an incredible read
@@emmanuelgarcia619 it encapsulates all the fleeting thoughts of the why I love the creative process. From the self doubt, the loss of time in the zone, the discovery, the over analysis, how to find new inspiration and assembles it in one creative bible.
RR listens unbiasedly and gives very specific instructions on how to arrange the music so it works. It's just listening critically and getting the ego out of the way. He's also a character in hip hop so there's synergy in hanging out with him because he has a. long history of working with artists so it naturally inspires creativity.
LET RUSS TALK
😂😂
Rick Rubin is an actual wizard/warlock. He knows exactly how to manipulate sound and words to cast a spell/enchant/hypnotize the unsuspecting masses. That’s why no one knows what he’s doing, because most people don’t even understand the spiritual level this guy works on.
Yessssss!!! 💯
I guess if I could explain what Rubin is to hip hop in the boxing world is comparable to the hall of famer trainer Cus D’Amato. Cus has never fought professionally but understands boxing and understood how to get into his fighters psyche and make them the beast fighter they were. Cus taught/trained Mike Tyson and Floyd Patterson. Cus was able to develop Champions despite not have professional fighting experience. His insight was enough to pass that onto other fighters. That is what Rick Rubin is in the Hip Hop world.
If you really want to know who he is just search him up and you'll find out he was the co founder of Def Jam Recordings, and was also a former co president of Columbia Records. So yeah Schultz he actually has crazy credits
Questioning Rick Rubin credentials is asinine
My best musical project was a side project with my friend Brianna and she wasn’t a musician but she co produced my whole project so it was a duo, she had direction and a great set of ears so she helped me keep things in pocket. For that project. She didn’t play one thing but had input on everything
i dont understand whats so hard to understand about what Rick brings to the table and does lol
Petition to have an interruption counter added in top right corner
Rick Rubin’s resume is insane. Y’all are silly for even questioning that
When are you going to let him talk? This is aggravating. 😂
Rick Rubin started Def Jam records but it wasn’t mentioned… this is crazy!!! That’s what he’s most known for Duhhhhhhh!!!!
I love being an oldhead from Queens...not knowing Rick Rubin is wild to me.
I’m in that group, know Rick’s work well. But I u derstabd why people wouldn’t know. It ain’t rocket science. Dudes behind the scenes and we are in the age of overload of info. Folks don’t even know about the native tongues yet they rap for a living lol.
Right and it seems like Russ doesn’t know that Rick produced all the early Def Jam artists and that he started Def Jam Records in College
@@lowlowseesee say Word !
What does he do? Rick Rubin had to insist to convince Jonny Cash to sing Hurt from Nine Inch Nails. Go play that song.
Rick Rubin really explains what he “does” in his interview with Andrew Huberman
Andrew, is the type to miss an opportunity because of his skepticism. Gotta step outta yourself sometimes. Rick has been successful longer than he’s been alive and worked with artists who are no longer alive. Crazy he’d be skeptical.
Andrew bro, stop cutting off the damn guests. It’s really getting annoying.
I can't take it anymore.
😂😂
3:40 was the worst sidebar I've ever heard I was shocked how far off topic you guys got for absolutely no reason like bruh we're talking about the musician's perspective what does the Laker's championship success with their offence style have anything to do with that
She's an amazing songwriter "bith better have my money" LMAO
Amazing doesn't need to be eloquent, or bombast, but it needs to be authentic and needs to reach people and impact culture of the time
Look at Kendrick's line "We gon' be alright". Simple yet powerful, and it reaches everyone.
Standards are low nowadays.
You could start a song with “ I FORGOT TO TIE MY SHOES TODAY “ and some people would say “wow the depth..”
@@VTheGonk
Are you smoking something??
That's some low IQ s*** right there
@@heythere6983 🤣😂 - go on, cr8 a catchy melody with these exact words
@@heythere6983you can literally start something meaningful with that i swear 😂 that’s a great metaphorical line for a song
Andrew has a big ol head at this point. Thinks he knows more than everyone about everything. No wonder he love Charlamange the chump.
Bro doesnt know who RICK is... he said "WHATS HIS HUSTLE" lmao! 30 years of being around music my friend! lol
I don’t know how anyone who listens to hip hop, music in general, and not know who Rick Rubin is. He’s a legend
I heard of Rick Rubin...cant wait to meet him...when i get in the Industry....
1LOVE
Rick Rubin has an entire Wikipedia page for his discography which spans four and a half decades.
He was added to Times list of the “100 most influential people IN THE WORLD”! MTV called him “the most important producer of the last 20 years". He holds EIGHT Grammy awards for ‘album of the year’ and ‘producer of the year’.
I think these achievements speak for his talents.
Interesting using the term source. Like being in touch with source, access to pure creation energy. Clear connection, setting ego aside. In the pocket, in union..
Love how he mentioned SIA she truly is the goat
Who is Rick Rubin? You mean the guy who found and gave LL Cool J his first record deal, who produced for Beastie Boys and Run DMC…what’s his contribution?
I’m skeptical that Andrew Shultz is a real comedian
When outsider artist get advice from a real artist basically.
Russ u can't level and have e real emotional conversation with these Bro Bags
Phil Jackson didn't create the triangle offense. JS
Andrew questioning Rick Rubin’s credibility and learning that he founded DefJam, gotta check facts before you critique
Rick is a music producer. simple as that.
(10:24 - 10:55) Schulz:"I'ma tell My wife this sh!t Bro... I just got taste". 😅😅😅
This dudes (Russ) vibe, voice, and demeanor...........he should do an EP collab with Scoop Deville. 100%
S/O BiBi definitely a star 🖤
at #andrewschulz - you are not skeptical of "Them." You are skeptical of the deeper parts in you that also possess this gift of "knowing." Drop in bro...
ookay shut up and let russ speak! why are you talking about sports when hes trying to tell you about music
Because they don’t really understand music and are trying to understand it through basketball which they likely know much better.
Best thing Rick Ruben got ... DANZIG!
Too much of cutting of the guest interview....4 people????
Reducing Rick Ruben to 99 problems is insane. Run DMC, Beastie Boys, Tom Petty...come on guys
Can't leave Jon Bellion out of the source category
Schulz saying the triangle offense was "novel and cool"... hahaha what an ignorant fool
Rick rubin comes into the studio for 4 seconds and says if it works and doesn't work some artists vibe with that and some artists find him to be a snake oil salesman.
Let the guest talk for christ sake!!
I only heard of him having interviews and talking about Nusrat fateh Ali khan
?
Let the man speak
Everyone wants to work with him? I thought people were screaming “fuck Russ”.
Love Rick and love Russ for his perspective on this
Rick Rubin has credentials
I wish they would shut up more and let the guests talk
the guy mixes records onvmute lol
Pretty woman mixed with broke back mountain
let the man talk, that's what we came here for!
An interview that would have been better without the interviewers - but I'm grateful nonetheless.
I do want the old Andrew back that wasn't a complete [fill in the blank here]
Schultz is right, people should be skeptical of Rick Ruben. Is he a good dude? Probably. Is here sincere? Possibly. He's not a Guru, and he's not majestic. He's a dude who decided to put rock guitar loops over bad drum machine tracks, back in the 1980's, to make rap desirable for the masses. Good move, but nothing more, nothing less. Ever since then, the industry has been calling upon him to help cultivate a hit or two from specific bands/groups/rappers. My mom would be more integral and honest towards my art production than anyone else.
how is B better have my money Incredible writing???
Trying to hear russ out wtf
I’m a big fan of Russ’s music, but at this point it just feels like he’s always blaming his lack of success on industry plants and industry organizations that are meant to tear down the artist, rather than just except the fact that he will never have as big of a platform as most rappersif you even want to call Russ rapper at this point
Taste, enough said!
That's Camila Cabello
Shut up and let him talk.
Why would Jay-Z work with some Zz top looking guy if he didn't have the juice? Some of this shit these guys say is flat out dumb. Did we really have to interrupt the topic with a discussion about Phil Jackson?
The tangents are annoying
This is maybe a bit ridiculous, but Andrew’s hair is kind of a good example of his taste. It was ridiculous, and objectively still is. But shit he pulls it off now and it’s kinda grown on me.
Rick Rubin is not just hip hop. He may have started with def jam but even then his style had a rock vibe as you can hear in beastie boys run dmc n LL. Also jays 99 problems. Then the Johnny cash albums. Dude is a musical genius
Beyonce is not a source, but performer !!
Rick Rubin is there for the labels to ensure they make the most money and have their desired influences upon the artists finished product, no?
Would you not send the most qualified person to oversee the most successful artists of all time?
Maybe this is falling on Deaf Jammed Ears?
Tastes like ...heaven?
Lmfao dood lost me at tomy roberts... Wtf...
Whose tomy Roberts?
Mad disrespect 😅
Yeah why invite a guest if your
Not gunna let him talk smh lol honestly
TASTE
Andrew thinks far too much of himself. So much opinion without any research.
Schulz is skeptical of Rick Rubin? Gtfo here bro
Yoo many ppl on this this ain’t Pat mcfee
rick a shame!
Schultz is out of touch with everything 🤡. As a student of life i can never learn shit from Andrew
Schulz come on... You're so ignorant
duude with the moustache is so annoying bro. stfu and let the guest talk geezus christ. was actually thinking about watching this whole episode but i can't stand this duude always talking over someone. worst host.
Rick rubin never got caught, i mean wheres Russell Simmons right now? Ricky never went to any parties.
Get a fade man t f is that , razor
Anybody - and I mean ANYBODY - can sit in the corner of the room bearded and barefoot giving unaccredited criticism during production the way Rick Rubin does. He’s just been lucky enough to be in the room with multiple people far more creative then he ever could be for decades and decades on end.
Don't tell my baby mama but im gay af
She knows, big dawg
More than taste, Mr. Rubin simply goes immediately with his natural istincts whereas most of us have barriers that we have built in our minds (partly due to the nature of society) and we question our instincts. 😊
