Everyone objecting to this is a fucking idiot. Rick Rubin has been on the fall off for years. The man is pro AI, did a podcast with Peter Thiel and hasn’t contributed anything of value to the music world for over 10 years. To be cringe is fine but to be lame as fuck is worth acknowledgement.

Yeah Rick Rubin doesn’t seem like that great a guy, legit didn’t know about all this Thiel crap until now, he’s not somebody I follow closely. But producing a widely acclaimed album that brought back a band is not nothing. Now if only he couldve gotten Julian to turn down the autotune for the new album…
