“Give It Away” serves as the high-octane lead single from the 1991 masterpiece ‘Blood Sugar Sex Magik’, marking the start of Red Hot Chili Peppers’s iconic six-album partnership with producer Rick Rubin. Recorded at “The Mansion,” the track is famous for Chad Smith’s natural, punchy drum sound and the altruistic lyrical refrain inspired by Anthony Kiedis’s time with Nina Hagen. The song earned the band their first number-one single on the Billboard Modern Rock Tracks and a Grammy for Best Hard Rock Performance, solidifying their status as global rock heavyweights.
