Did anyone know that mike shinoda is working on a solo album

[lp_151999]

isn't chester going solo too??

[SNiPeRViRuS]

Not a wise move on their part. Linkin Park is hopefully not that brainless. However, if they do break uo, which is now a 40% possibility, I hope they know how much of an impact they have had and how much more it could have been.

All these breaking up rumours are driving me crazy. I just want to know, one way or the other. But the guys are such good friends. Even if LP did split I can't see them just walking away from each other.

 

Besides, come on guys, even if they do split it's not the end. We can still listen to the songs, watch Frat Party, discuss them, write fanfiction, etc etc. I know it's not the same, but it doesn't have to end.

The fact they have basically already announced an album for 2006, and the fact that mike has done solo projects serperatly from the band already im not too worried.

 

The solo career could do good for Linkin Park and bring a whole new audience to the genre and you never know, you might see the rest of Linkin Park featuring on Mike Shinodas album.

And amongst other things, Linkin Park now have a record label (sub label) and also have done recent things such as starting Music For Relif and will be apperaring on a Benefit Concert for it with Jay Z amomngst other artists. This dosent sound like a group that is splitting up, I think Mike has planned to do a solo album for a long time now and there is nothing to worry about, it can fill up the 2005 void till 2006 when the new album is rumoured to be released.

 

I dont want to bring it up though but Destiney Child reformed(not to my happiness of course) despite Beyonce being such a hit.

poeple poeple calm down.....

dont say its a bad idea or the're gonna split up

i mean we still didnt see the new solo album....

also we're not sure.....

oh and by the way some fans started to critsize Colliesion Course

..and when they bought it they loved it...

.so i think we should give this album a chance..

and i know alot of poeple who liked 'step up' and it was only mike's rap..although these poeple are rapper haterz...

[Crawling]

thats not kool

[rock star]

GUYS u know what!!

i loved the idea ....!!

like why NOT???

[Crawling]

i didn't maybe kuz i dun like rap (and 4 that i didn't hear collision course) i prefer to hear chester with mike or chester only

[Friðbjörn]

i dunno whether i should laugh or cry. first of all, is he in fact making a solo album? if he is, let him work his magic, bands have worked although one member has done a solo or side project. bands like depeche mode, destiny's child, g-unit, blur, oasis, d-12, lp, korn, limp bizkit and QOTSA are still working despite of various solo projects and other stuff.

lp have announced a new album, they're all good friends, why the fuck should they break up? they know for a fact that they have a huge number of fans, even a huge number of official fans who love them and support them and want more stuff from them. they might be a little tired of each other, that's why they've been working with other artists. they'll come back even stronger.

and give them a break they're all adults, it's not up to us to decide what they'll do.

[Crawling]

lp is unique but when mike make a solo ... i duno there are loads of rappers there

it's the way that lp make chaz and mike one thing

[Hybrid-Heart]

i saw that article on a site and i like the idea of mike making a solo album

and the band won't split up..at least i believe in them...

they have lots of fans and i don't think they give that up so easly

[Stenners]

Just because u dontl like rap dosent mean mike shouldnt do this album 'Crawling'

[shirakawa_otori]

Mike's a good emcee and I'm not a rapper hater, I like good rap a lot. So, I don't have a problem with Mike making a solo album. I'm sure it'd be good and I'd buy it. What I'm worried about is if this will influence a break up. There's just so many rumors coming out now a days, it's weird :\ It's perfectly understandable that the guys are a little tired and that they want to make their own things, but I don't know if they'll be able to do that and LP at the same time. I'm just not sure what to think anymore.

[Crawling]

Just because u dontl like rap dosent mean mike shouldnt do this album 'Crawling'

allright and also that may devide the lp team.. i won't like to see chester make his own album..it'd be gr8 okay but LP is better that chestr only or mike only

[gabi_lp]

isn't chester going solo too??

 

I've heard about it too. It could be great, cause he has an awsumm voice. But he could improve his voice by making new LP songs, I mean, not alone.

[LPGotLinkinPark]

I still don't like the idea of a Mike solo album.

[FadedBlue]

1st step to a band breaking up is someone making a solo album..

im just sayin..

 

Seriously, i mean what ever happened to Nsync?

I hope LP doesnt..break up. THAT WOULD BE THE END OF ME!

 

I just, SERIOUSLY, want a new album from LP, not mike, not chester, not brad..(..dont ask), but from LINKIN PARK!

 

I'm getting a little bit unpatient( i still love LP,and they are the greatest band alive). Its been 2 years since the last album (with new lyrics).

Im happy for Mike, but..I seriously want a new album from LP.

Preach it! LOL That's what I've been thinking this whole time, too.

[i_love_mike_shinoda2]

Reading through all these posts have given me some thoughts..

 

Like some you said.. they might end up like Destiny's Child.. make a few albums and go big, one leave and make an album and go big, and then they come back even bigger than ever. Maybe thats what LP is trying to do, I would probably do the same.

 

Mike is an awesome rapper. I love all kinds of rap and I love Mike's the most cuz his actually means something. When you add Chester is awesome and when you add the rest of them, it just blows you away. I had a feeling once I became a fan of them, that one of them would do something that screwed up the band and they would be awesome and then they work things out and start something new. They probably just wanna surpise us with something big. Like with Reanimation.. when I heard Enth E End on the radio, it totally surpised me and I loved it. Then Meteora came out and once again it surpised me. LP loves surpising people and I just have a strong feeling thats what they are trying to do. They probably got together and convinced Mike to make a solo album so then they could surpise some fans and see how it sells. I have a feeling that the band will be with the album, just only Mike singing and maybe even have Chester play his guitar! Then when 2006 comes around, they would have came up with ideas for new songs while on the road and then their new album comes out and we are all surpised again!

 

Wow that was a bit long but like Im saying.. they may split but come back.

"Like some you said.. they might end up like Destiny's Child.. make a few albums and go big, one leave and make an album and go big, and then they come back even bigger than ever. Maybe thats what LP is trying to do, I would probably do the same."

 

I heard that destiny's child is breaking up, for good this time.

 

 

Well..i_love_mike_shinoda2, you sort of do have a good point, LP does love to suprise us. But i just cant wait another year for a new album!! Can't LP do an album together, then do solo after?

 

Who am I to complain though? Im, kinda, sorta, looking forward to this solo album, but i would prefer a new album alot more:D

[Rae Rae]

a Mikey album?!?!? FUCK YES! but if they break up I will seriously fucking cry...I wanna cry just thinking about them breaking up

[Clogz]

I second this motion.

Yes, they may be trying to superise us, but if this forum represents Linkin Park fans across the spectrum (which it does), the feeling seems to be more anxious and cautious then actual happiness. I really LP would say something about this or the next album...a statement of some sort, just to keep all us Linkin Park freaks from knawing our fingers to the bone in nervous anxiety.

But yeah, I agree with Faded Blue. It has been two years and I want Linkin Park.

Give me my new album!!!

[misery]

its just not a good idea for anyone from lp to make a solo album or temporarily split from the group. i dont really see a big upside. like people have been saying, lp fans seem more angry/worried than happy.

[Mike_is_mine]

dude... cool

[shahfire]

mike solo album, its gonna be good!!!!!

lp is not gonna spilt up. even if they do, they r gonna come back together again..i believe in that.
