| Mike
Shinoda & Friends |
antiMusic reports: For his latest MorleyView,
antiMusic's Morley Seaver spoke with Linkin Park frontman Mike Shinoda
about his new solo release (Fort Minor). Here is a little bit of that interview
where Mike discusses some of the special guests on the album.
antiMusic: Tell us about the special guests
on the record? Why did you include them and how did they come to be on
their respective cuts?
Shinoda: As you can imagine, I could have
gotten together with all the big names, like the Neptunes or Timbaland,
and made the album that way, put "Mike Shinoda of Linkin Park" on the cover,
with a big photo of me. But I didn't want to do that. As I was making the
songs, I felt like I wanted to include my friends. If you look at all the
artists on the album-Black Thought, Common, John Legend, Styles of Beyond,
Holly Brook, Kenna, Jonah-I think there is a lot of diversity there. I
basically looked at each song and thought about what would make it better.
I respect these people musically, and I knew that if I asked them to work
on a song, they would understand my vision for it.[see full story for the
