Is Pharrell number one for longevity as a top producer in the game?

You said longevity. The songs on TLOP are 32 years since Rick Tubin started and those songs he was a part of were the bangers. Pharell don't got 32 years of producing so the answer is still Rick Rubin.

You're right. He don't got 32 years. He's got 33 years. He's got credits on this.

Rick Rubin has never programmed a damn drum hit or anything in his life. I hope you know this when you and many others keep mentioning him behind legends like Pharrell

That goof curates the recording experience he's a studio coach. And people still continue to glaze him.



I expect much more from a rap subforum. No he is not the answer unless the question is what does white privilege look like

Rick Rubin is a curator.

One rock band said they hired him for big money and he laid down on a sofa closing his eyes for a couple hours, opened them and said “take that sound out” then went home.

You can put a different spin on it all you want but Rick Rubin is a producer similar to P Diddy. When Nirvana hired Steve Albini to "produce" In Utero him being labeled a "producer" wasn't dissected like you are doing now. If we don't do that to Steve Albini we not all of a sudden changing the rules and doing it to Rick Rubin. The thread title says "producer" not beat maker.

Ahh yes, hip hop legends The Red Hot Chili Peppers and Imagine Dragons

Pharrell produced for pop legends Britney Spears and Justine Timberlake. Notice how you didn't speak on Pharell doing music outside of Hip Hop when OP suggested his name but you here doing it for Rick and think you have merit in your words.

Rick Rubin was on Lil Uzi Verts 'Pink Tape' which dropped last year.

In the 2010's he was on:

Kanye West – Yeezus
Eminem – The Marshall Mathers LP 2
Wu-Tang Clan – A Better Tomorrow
GoldLink – And After That, We Didn't Talk
Kanye West – The Life of Pablo
Eminem – Revival


The answer is Rick Rubin.

A few of those albums sucked and he was a big part of the reason why

He don’t? Bro was legit making songs w/ Teddy Riley

You're right. He don't got 32 years. He's got 33 years. He's got credits on this.

I knew it was only a matter of time before history rewriters would come in here and bring up Rump Shaker and Teddy Riley. Pharell wrote on Rump Shaker. He didn't produce anything on that song. Thread title says "producer" not "song writer." Like I said, Pharrell don't got 32 years in the game like Rick Rubin.
