Rick Rubin Prepares Takeover Of Entire Music Industry
The undated email, published below, was sent over the weekend to Sony Music head Rob Stringer; we cannot vouch for its authenticity:
rob–
toodles. talked to [REDACTED], sounds like we’re in the clear. everything’s signed. announce it however you want.
i know we spoke about this already, but im really sorry about danzig calling. he can be a sensitive little bear at times. he feels bad, and promises to rsscue your soul from the third chamber of devilspawn. i really thats just a sports metaphor anyway.
anyway, a few ideas below. a lot of “maybe we can get your friends to be with my friends and do this every weekend” stuff: i will just throw the ideas out there and hope you can choose the right projects using your inner light. or assistants. whatever:
-dixies/wolfsbane duet: natalie’s into it; as for song, lots of ideas, but rr partial to “lifes a lemon, i want my money back,” only less show-offy
-“petty covers petty” album. still think this could work; never been done before. how amazing would it would be to hear tom petty, with a full backing band, play songs like “american girl” or “free fallin'”?
-Limahl–any word? will he meet?
-“blood sugar sax magick” – johnny colla’s not returning rr’s call-as.
-something something ray combs.
thats it for now. let me know when that expense thing comes through for the office, i have two makos here and rr def. needs his makos to have all-saltwater, all the time
toodles,
rr
