Adam Gubman

Adam Gubman’s name tends to pop up in places you don’t even realize, but once you notice, you can’t unsee it. The guy’s got his fingerprints all over some pretty big movies—think The Greatest Showman, Ride Along, and Baywatch. Seriously, who manages to float between a circus musical, a buddy cop comedy, and a lifeguard action flick like it’s just another Tuesday? That’s some range right there. The Greatest Showman isn’t your average musical; it’s got that over-the-top, bombastic energy, and Adam’s music is a big chunk of what makes it so infectious. Like, those songs burrow into your brain and refuse to leave for weeks. Then you jump over to Ride Along, and it’s a totally different vibe—fast-paced, punchy, with music that keeps you on your toes while Kevin Hart and Ice Cube are doing their thing. And Baywatch? Don’t even get me started. Half the fun of that movie is the way the soundtrack keeps winking at you, like it’s in on the joke. What’s wild is how Adam manages to adapt his style for whatever the movie needs. He’s not just recycling the same old sounds—he actually pays attention to the tone, the pacing, the whole mood. You listen close, and you can tell there’s real thought behind every track. It’s not just background noise, it’s part of the story. Makes you wonder what project he’ll pop up in next, honestly.
