O lendário produtor musical Rick Rubin é um mestre em ajudar artistas dos mais variados gêneros a se conectarem com a fonte de sua criatividade para descobrir quem são de verdade e o que de melhor têm a oferecer ao mundo. Ao longo de anos estimulando as pessoas a transcenderem suas limitações e resgatarem esse estado puro de inocência e inspiração dentro de si, Rubin compreendeu que ser artista não tem a ver com criar obras de arte; tem a ver, sim, com uma maneira peculiar de estar no mundo e de se relacionar com ele.
