Legendary producer Rick Rubin has been working on tracks for the Clipse’s long-awaited third album this month, the rap duo’s camp tells EW. Rubin, who signed the Clipse to Columbia Records shortly after taking over as the label’s cochairman in 2007, has completed one tune with them so far in a Malibu studio; they plan to work with him on one to two more in the coming weeks. Though Rubin began his career in the ’80s working with acts like Run-D.M.C., LL Cool J, and the Beastie Boys, he’s more recently focused on producing rock and pop bands like Red Hot Chili Peppers and Weezer — along with occasional high-profile forays into hip-hop like Jay-Z’s "99 Problems" in 2003. Needless to say, the thought of the bearded studio wizard crafting tracks for critical darlings the Clipse is enough to make many rap fans salivate.
The Clipse is currently aiming for a late-summer release for Til the Casket Drops, which will feature contributions from a wide range of beatsmiths. First single "Kinda Like a Big Deal," produced by DJ Khalil and featuring Kanye West, is set to drop March 9.
Can’t wait for this!!! Produced by The New Royales and Hastings Set members, DJ Khalil and Chin Injeti
Clipse! Such a below-the-radar rap group. This duo should be waaay more popular than say a Soulja Boy, y’know? Anywho, this album’s gonna be sick. Rick Rubin? What? That’s a genius move.
Best news I’ve heard all day!!!
This may be the album that blows them up.
Man what do you mean? The Lord Willin’ and Hell Hath No Fury were pretty big albums. I think they already have blown up, but they have just been screwed around on the business side. I think a lot of people who don’t keep up with them may have forgotten about them, I hope this album reminds people of how dope they really are.
