Rubin soll Executive Producer sein. Hier ist mehr darüber zu lesen, u.a.:
Just two days before the album was supposed to be turned in, five songs still needed vocals. „Don’t worry, I will score 40 points for you in the fourth quarter,“ Kanye allegedly told Rubin. „In the two hours before he had to run to catch the plane [to Milan], he did exactly that: finished all lyrics and performed them with gusto,“ Rubin said.
Rubin, who’s been credited as Yeezus‘ executive producer, said he also helped take the songs to different places than they began. „When he first played [„Bound“] for me, it was a more middle of the road R&B song, done in adult contemporary style,“ he said. „I removed all of the R&B elements leaving only a single note baseline in the hook which we processed to have a punk edge in the Suicide tradition.“
