Kids are more creative because they have no baggage:
They have no belief system and don't know how things are supposed to work. They just see what is.
We learn what's right and what's wrong, and we imitate the people who made things we love. Both undermine the purity of the creative process.
Rubin started making music with no experience, so he didn't know what rules he was breaking. He just did what seemed right to him.
