Today we have part two of Rick Rubin’s conversation with proto-punk icon, Iggy Pop. If you didn’t catch part one last week where Iggy talked about his early days with the Stooges and the inspiration behind some of their most seminal songs, make sure you check that out.

You can hear a playlist of some of our favorite Stooges and Iggy Pop solo songs HERE.
