Rick Rubin has lost his golden touch.

Yeezus.

Magna Carta Holy Grail

Rap God (the beat)
Survival, the Monster (the "vibe")
Berzerk (the shitiness)

people in rock are hating his "louder is better" mantra. I don't trust his Yoda touch no more. (not that i ever did, i took the artists word for it).

Hail Punch president of TDE.

RICK RUBIN FELL OFF YO QUIT MAKING MUSIC RICK GAWD

Rick is still a legend.

The dude has been responsible for some of the best albums of all time.
Even since the 80s hes been putting out epic albums.

Yes. maybe he did fuck up a few times, Death Magnetic is an example, well, I don't think it's a bad album, but, a lot of people complained about the loudness, but, you can't get it right all the time. Besides, I think he crafted Berserk quite well for what he had to work with.
I have a feeling that MMLP2 will be a huge shock, because tracks like Bad Guy and such will be so fucking epic.

Rick is just a man, he makes mistakes, yes, but, whatever he sets in stone stays like that.
You can love it or hate it.

I've known he is overrated for a long time. His addition as an "exectutive producer" on this album is nothing but a fancy sticker to go on this destined-to-be piece of crap poptart packaged product. Just like the blonde hair, just like calling the album MMLP2, just like having a COD soundtrack in there and just like having an absolutely abysmal ultra poppy "radio smash" (yaaaaay!) like The Monster on there, the addition of Rubin is merely a shallow, arbitrary move in order to generate more sales for a now clueless 41yr old Marshall Mathers.

Sad, but true.

Hate me, bitches.

No sane person will hate you over an opinion.

I actually sorta agree with a few things in this thread, but, come on...
