My favorite album as well.

The production is amazing.. I like RiB, but I do not like the way it is produced at times, one thing I hate about pretty much everything Rick Rubin touches is the fact he doesn't use reverb in the mix.

I won't lie, I think Rick Rubin is not that great, I know some people like to treat him like a god or what not, but I find his production with metal to sound kinda sterile. He is better suited to guys like Johnny Cash or Neil Diamond, they stuff he did with those guys was great, but most of his rap and metal stuff I find that they are nothing special production wise.
