  Linkin parks Mike Shinoda and the other asian dude from LP and some other randoms make a band under the label Machine Shop.... first album out 22 november 2005 "the rising tied"  site www.fortminor.com QUOTE Linkin Park, and in particular their resident emcee Mike Shinoda, have always expressed a keen interest in hip hop and have oft pledged their devotion to the old school ways of doing it. Now, Mr. Shinoda himself has unveiled hip-hop side project, Fort Minor. In the past, Shinoda has had a brief fling with hip-hop outfit The X-ecutioners and Linkin Park have teamed up with Jay-Z for the mash-up album "Collision Course", so Fort Minor was only a natural progression. Debut album, "The Rising Tide", was co-produced by Jay-Z and features collaborations with the cream of contemporary hip-hop, including Common, John Legend, Kenna, Black Thought, Linkin Park's Joe Hahn and new Machine Shop artists Styles of Beyond and Holly Brook. It will also provide Shinoda with some time to shine - he wrote every track and plays practically every instrument under the Fort Minor name. "The Fort Minor record is all about getting back to basics in hip-hop, both sonically and for me personally," says Shinoda. "And working with Jay-Z again has been phenomenal. We can't wait for people to hear the final product." "The Rising Tide" will released on the 22nd of November, with first single - double A-side "Petrified/Remember The Name" - available for download on October 4th. GOGOGOGO! theyve released "remember the name" and "petrified" on the net already... pretty effing good... his myspace www.myspace.com/fortminor  |

i expect great things from this album, beat-wise, since Jay-Z produced it, and lyrically, because Mike Shinoda seems a good lyricist. I liked Remember the Name. :]

I like Fort Minor, especially the songs Cigarettes, Kenji, Remember the Name, and Where'd You Go. Some others too. Those just stick out to me.

I have been playing 'Where'd You Go?' for like 1 hour already. God, I love this song so much. It reminds me of a lot... Singing to other songs on their Myspace, 'Remember The Name' is good too

Fort Minor is one of my favorite bands.
If anyone really likes "Remember the Name," theres a remix contest for that song going on at ccmixter right now. A lot of people have come up with some pretty sweet remixes. |

 Wow, i dont know whats going on... Group: Member Posts: 1,439 Joined: Apr 2004 Member No: 10,977 |
How is remember the name a good song? It's so god damn pointless. It's about him trying to tell people about him and to respect him. Im sure he could have done a better job then, "10 percent skill, 20 percent gay, 40 percent bullshit and 30 percent just plain stupid." Or whatever the hell he said.
I'm not saying anything about Mike or Fort Minor, I just think this song sucks. The only times I listen to it, is when I want to hear something funny, laugh or if I'm bored as hell. He sound make a comedy album, and this song would be the first track in it. |
