Beard Of The Week #1: Rick Rubin

Beard Of The Week is a column of life, music, people, and their beards. Each week Lachlan Fletcher of The Subplot and Unabridged will give you a great beard and shed some light on its significance, hopefully helping both the bearded and unbearded alike down the road to enlightenment.

Rick Rubin

Does Rick Rubin's beard make his music awesome? Who knows. It did probably have something to do with something sometime, though. Rick Rubin's beard got its start DJing for the Beastie Boys, and went on to produce many classic metal and hip-hop albums on Def Jam  (which he co-founded with Russell Simmons) and his own American Recordings.
