With the first half of the 2020s behind us, Rubin has already produced 16 albums, from alternative rock artists like The Strokes and Red Hot Chili Peppers to pop stars like Kesha to rising country singer-songwriters like Tyler Childers. One of the things that sets Rubin apart as a producer is his willingness to work on seemingly anything. And while he\u2019s been hugely influential in certain genres, he can\u2019t be pinned down to just one.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">The Strokes, &#8220;Bad Decisions&#8221;<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-block-embed-youtube wp-embed-aspect-16-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"The Strokes - Bad Decisions (Official Video)\" width=\"500\" height=\"281\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/5fbZTnZDvPA?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe>\n<\/div><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Rubin&#8217;s first release of the 2020s was The Strokes&#8217; album <em>The New Abnormal<\/em>, the band&#8217;s first album in seven years. The track &#8220;Bad Decisions&#8221; uses elements of Billy Idol\u2019s hit &#8220;Dancing With Myself&#8221; and was released as its second single. It was the album\u2019s biggest hit, peaking at No. 5 on the Rock &amp; Alternative Airplay chart and No. 6 on Hot Rock &amp; Alternative Songs. The album itself was also a success, as it earned the band their first Grammy nomination for Best Rock Album. Naturally, they won.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Red Hot Chili Peppers, &#8220;Black Summer&#8221;<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-block-embed-youtube wp-embed-aspect-16-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"Red Hot Chili Peppers - Black Summer (Official Music Video)\" width=\"500\" height=\"281\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/OS8taasZl8k?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe>\n<\/div><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Rock band Red Hot Chili Peppers once again tapped Rubin for their 12th album, <em>Unlimited Love<\/em>, released in 2022. Rubin had worked as a producer on all but a few of the band&#8217;s previous albums. &#8220;Black Summer&#8221; was the album&#8217;s biggest hit. It reached No. 1 on the Rock &amp; Alternative Airplay chart and No. 10 on Hot Rock &amp; Alternative Songs. The track was also notable for being the band\u2019s first in 16 years to feature guitarist John Frusciante. He rejoined the band in 2019.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Imagine Dragons, &#8220;Follow You&#8221;<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-block-embed-youtube wp-embed-aspect-16-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"Imagine Dragons - Follow You (Lyric Video)\" width=\"500\" height=\"281\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/1DoI5WTjd3w?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe>\n<\/div><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>As one of the double lead singles from their album <em>Mercury &#8211; Act 1<\/em>, Imagine Dragons released &#8220;Follow You,&#8221; produced by Joel Little and Rubin.
