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.

Rubin demolished
Death Magnetic but did a great job on
A Thousand Suns
most of his Def Jam work is alright, in fact, the stuff he touched actually don't sound as dated as other rap from the same era
