I'd bet $5.75 that Rick Rubin is only
credited with producing Baby Got Back. Mix has been producing himself since 1985, and this track sounds waaaay to close in technic to Mix's 1988 track Rippin' (as well as Kid Sensation and Tony Lorenzo tracks). There's a chance I could be wrong, but in the Red Bull Academy interview, Mix talks in depth about how he came up with certain aspects of the production on that song. Then again, he denies sampling Technocolor, which its 100% fucking clear that it was sampled. The snare during the loop (and lack of when the loop is absent is a dead give away).
Rubin has never made any Miami Bass songs - only proto-bass ala Rock the Bells. Being the 1st release of Mix's on (Def) American, the story tells itself. Another label owner crediting himself to secure extra publishing.
Best Run DMC is easily the debut album. Shit not only changed my life, but, uh, all Hip-Hop. The non-Disco/non-Electro Hip-Hop sound begins with the Sucker MC's/It's Like That single.

tie, but i think there is more stuff in baker's catalog that i'm curious about. problem is that when i find it, i'm usually not so thrilled. "i.o.u." and "confusion" are massively classic though. in the other corner, run-dmc left an indelible impression on me and then there's
reign in blood and "99 problems" (oh that video). so, etc etc what vahid said although it seems like baker has less forced street cred.
