Yeah that's true she is pregnant.....read this ----------------------------------------- Linkin Park front man Chester Bennington hosted another pool party at Cain, but the rest of his evening didn't go as swimmingly. The rocker blasted a Mansion nightclub bodyguard, alleging that the security man had shoved his pregnant girlfriend. "He was forcibly pushing her away with his arm and I had to get in between them," Bennington told us. "So I shoved him back." The singer, who says he may bring legal action against the club, spit on one of the bouncers as he stormed away from the party ----------------------------------------- I'm gonna keep my mouth shut …

U.K. MC Lady Sovereign freshens up hip-hop with a dose of grime. Enter nineteen year old London emcee Lady Sovereign. The five foot Caucasian girl was called to Def Jam offices to meet Jay after a recent New York show, and was subsequently signed. “We spoke for a little bit, then he asked me to do some lyrics. I was like 'Aarrgh!' That just freaked me out, but it was cool”, she said in a recent interview. It seems like Jay - Z has helped her produce an offerings of superstar producers for the record, saying the CD had already been recorded in the U.K., she now says she’s going to New York to work in the studio with Pharrell Williams, Chad Hugo, and Mike Shinoda of L…

Recent update from the band - LPU 5 is coming soon LOL, the date of The Rising Tied. Check it out... My Linkin Park People, How's it going? For me (and us), things are moving very well. We have taken about a year off and are now back into full work mode. What does a year off look like for Linkin Park? Surprisingly, it was a lot of work. During our "down time," we started Music For Relief, a non-profit organization working to mobilize musicians and their fans to aid in times of disaster. We also played Live 8, the largest show in our band's history. Mike, workaholic that he is, wrote, recorded, and promoted his own side project, Fort Minor. In case you are completely…

Here's a really decent and longish article on Fort minor with Mike Shinoda! He talks into detail about a couple of songs on the album. It's a good read: "After 12 years of studying piano, Linkin Park's Mike Shinoda could play classical compositions with his eyes closed. Finding someone to listen was the hard part. "Maybe it was just my group of friends, but you play them some Bach and they're like, 'That's boring,' " he recalls. "But you play them a Dr. Dre loop and they're like, 'Oh sh--! He can play the Dre loop!' You play 'Deep Cover' and all of a sudden it's a big deal. That realization essentially led Shinoda to the seat he's sitting in this morning, behind …

Linkin Park has sold millions of albums imitating a rap-rock formula established by a band that actually had something to say: Rage Against the Machine. So it's reasonable to ask why you should care that Linkin Park's MC and vocalist Mike Shinoda is releasing "The Rising Tied" on Tuesday, (Warner Bros.), essentially a solo album under the name Fort Minor. There are four reasons to care: Jay-Z, Common, John Legend and Black Thought. Jay-Z executive produced the record, and musicians Common, Legend and Black Thought (of the Roots) make guest appearances. Shinoda is an adequate lyricist and rapper, but he pushes beyond the usual rap-metal solipsism on "Kenji." The tune, a…

So I decided to get off my lazy ass and post some news! I've had these articles for a while but haven't posted them due to LPF having its issues >_< First article: Fort Minor are thankful to Jay-Z for his help on their album. Speaking as guests on today's TRL, Fort Minor – fronted by Mike Shinoda from Linkin Park - bigged-up the rap legend, who was the executive producer of their album. "People ask me if Jay wrote anything on the album," Mike told TRL's Dave Berry - also a rap legend in many people's eyes. "He didn't write any lyrics, he didn't write any of the music. "So it's like, 'what did he do?' Well I'm a pretty versatile writer, I write pop songs…

http://www.empathypromotion.com/fortminorint.html Interesting read, good info Mike gives. Check it out. He talks about what songs were finished when and the artwork on the album. Definetely one of my favorite interviews. http://www.libertytimes.com.tw/2005/new/nov/12/today-show15.htm It's in Japenese, but a translation: We had this interview with Mike, from Fort Minor, on the day after the concert in Yokohama. Married Mike didn’t give too much details about his private life, but he said that he wants sexy M.I.A. to be the leading lady in his music video. This is his first time doing a concert outside the States alone, and Mike thought he did very great performance.…
