im going for a yes, but hopefully, this will be his only one, i thought he was gonna do 1 after collison course, he looked so happy rapping wiv JZ, but, carousel and high voltage, are way up there with my fav lp songs so hopefully more of the same, and lets pray he doesnt use the words "nigga, pimp, bitch" on the album

I think that Mike's solo project will most definately help LP in the long run. For the longest time, critics and music elitists alike have labelled Linkin Park a "nu-metal" band, and compare them to the likes of Limp Bizkit whom has a totally different style of music. What they don't understand is that Linkin Park are a breed of their own, and don't really fit any certain label of music.

Hope I made sense o_o;;

linkin park == === === easily distungishble but hard to class into a music sterotype

i think it will help LP jus because its kinda different fro wot they're doin now and stuff lyk that

i think it will help alot, it will reach out to a broader fan base like CC and Reanimation did.

yes!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! everybody is for yees!!!!!! wooohoooo

not to seem like a bitch......

but i really don't care if mikes makes a solo album...

but i'm getting sick of tired of lp fans making these threads and making a big deal out of it geez its not like they re going to spilt for good just mike is doing this as a side project........so big deal he has a solo album this is just away to show his talant with out chester rob brad phoenix and joe so deal with and then making a big deal out of it.

sorry if i sound like a bitch....

u dont...its jus ur opinion

the Genere of LP is Linkin Park, but Mike likes rap too so let him do what he wants, if they said he couldn't it could have broke out in arguements or something so if he wants, he can

i totally agree

I think it is a big deal because of the fact that it's the first LP-related album, with all new songs, that has come out in the past 2 years...

yeah! it's a big deal because it's the first time that a LP member is coming out with a solo album

exactly, well said ^^^^^^ it is argublery the biggest thing lp have gone thru, these times are gonna be a big test on the bands will power, what with chester and sam etc etc, i hope they come thru this, i no they will

I have confidence that they get through this too.Because this will give them an idea for the next album. And as far as sam and chester, well, they'll work it out.I'm sure of it.

who's sam? i know who chester is, but there isn't anyone name sam in linkin park

Samantha, his wife

i think they will break up ...i hope this doesno happen

:thumbsup:

Don't worry, they will be together for a long time. the MTV news said that the band wishes the best of luck to mike on the solo album.

i knew samantha is chester's wife, but i didn't know that u guys can talk about her too

chester's wife, her and chester gettin divorced now, but thats in another thread

Sad but true

omg! but why?

i think it could benefit LP

if mike does well on his solo album

when he does the next LP album he may bring his separte fan base over to LP
making LP more popular

just a thought

According to Chester, samantha was thwarting his autority to nuture his son,Draven. It listed her as "estranged" meaning lost love. They were a great couple and it is really sad that they called it quits, but I'm sure that whatever they feel is best for their son is all that matters.

like i sed, differnt thread, this 1's about THE RISING TIDE this is my poll so plz stick to topic, i dnt want this shut down by admin, cheers

wtf? just telling to say sorry

I'm not sure if it will benefit LP or not...what I really want is new LP music!!! :)

i know! i can't wait for mikes album

the artists he's signed up are awsome, i love styles of beyond!! shuld rawk, any1 read the news that the realse date is being pushed back??

Yeah, I heard about that on the unofficial Fort Minor website. :'(

"hope are all well...i've been crazy busy with the fort minor stuff. things are moving a little slow, so the album will probably be out after summer. but the good news is that we hope to get music out to the world earlier than planned. anyway, more details coming soon."-Mike

There Seems To Be Some Confusion Over The " but the good news is that we hope to get music out to the world earlier than planned "

"WE" Meaning linkin park??? lets hope so.............

^hmmm, I think it means Linkin Park's new music will come out earlier. Wasn't it first posted in the LPU message board instead of the Fort Minor one? I'm not sure, but that's what it sounds like to me. :)

i don't care which album comes out first, no offense! i just want a new album

i want lp album 1st as its more important to me, but wouldnt complian if fm was 1st
