Mike Shinoda? - Why You Had To Die

[TheJoel109]

Did he say march 9 1997

[TheJoel109]

not mike because mike was influenced by dr dre not 2pac

[maeaeck]

Rythm and Melody from The Booda Velvets - Staring at the Sun

[dannyboiiLP14]

Mike doesn't even write these type of lyrics. But whoever this is. They're really good

[strideson1243]

dude! yes it was mike shinoda. it sounds like him to. go to linkin park.com and search it. and also you can hear chester in in the song to when mike stopped rapping. like espeacially at the end. mike shinoda is too awesome to not write that. and he says he loves hip hop and rap. that explains his voice in the songe singing for 2 pac and biggie smalls. i thin thats how you spell it. but you know what i mean.

[8976What]

@LokyMusik stop yelling at him/her that their opinion so stop whoever is saying bad shit about them: go fuck ur selves jeez!

[strideson1243]

whoa who was that for?

[strideson1243]

forget i said that

[Hybrid9Of1Rap1]

This is a close call..I'ma say no, this isn't Mike, for two things. One, Mike is a MUCH more creative lyricist, [btw Mike's voice is easily higher pitched and more adult-sounding] and Linkin Park never made this song. I also doubt this is by 2Pac, but Idc. This ain't Mike.

[LokyMusik]

In my opionion theres no doubt.. its LP !

[15fabregas4]

@LokyMusik you dumb?

[LokyMusik]

@15fabregas4

What a question... new qeustion... La li lu lei lo ?

[15fabregas4]

@LokyMusik this is by city clay, fuck head. and what the fuck is la li lu lei lo? suck on your mum tits if you don't know how to speak properly.

[LokyMusik]

@15fabregas4 Lol u stupid fuck, i thought u had brain cells, but that answer ... roflmao .. u made my day

Eat a fly and u had more brain in your stomach as less in your brain haha

To the track, we'll thats your opinion if it is so ok, but in my ears it definitly sounds like Mike, if u cant understand my opinion go get yourself a hobby u Internetgoblin !

[15fabregas4]

@LokyMusik to a person who cant spell question correctly? seriously, internet goblin? go listen properly to fort minor and come back, you don't know hip hop, i bet you are just a 15 year old trying to impress girls with your stupid comment, wake up, will you, won't happen.

[LokyMusik]

@15fabregas4 Lol u stupid i did hiphop for 10 years... i probably heared more hiphop songs than u had contact to rap... Onyx, Sticky Fingaz, Rugged, Jurassic 5... sounds like unknown artists to you i guess... get yourself a life and stop writin that bullshit you emberassin yourself crackwhore

[15fabregas4]

@LokyMusik why showing off your wide variety, when you cannot even differentiate mike shinoda and city clay? embarrassed? and 'i did hip hop'? you fucking serious?

[15fabregas4]

@LokyMusik whats the point of naming so many artist when you cannot recognize mike's voice? do everyone a favor, its not 'doing' hip hop you cunt, stop saying that.10years, yet have not learn much.

[XxRyan41xX]

@LokyMusik It's your opinion that this sounds like Mike? No doubt it's LP? Those are the kind of things somebody would say if they just fell 100 stories and smashed their head on concrete!

[familyguyLPfan934]

This is not Mike Shinoda. Sounds nothing like him.

[Amiemcadams]

this is MIKE. i know his voice. LOVEyou mike <3

[lordkryss17]

@Amiemcadams this is not mike, he sings way better than this...

[Amiemcadams]

@lordkryss17 sorry, but this is good. this is mike.. go to google... ^^

[lordkryss17]

@Amiemcadams i searched, and there is nothing official about this. This song is attributed to emimen too...

[strideson1243]

@Amiemcadams i know i did cuz i went to linkin park.com and searched for it and it is LP i even registured to.

[Amiemcadams]

@strideson1243 toldya!

[Fifazocker91]

this is not Mike ...but it sounds like Epic Mazur from Crazy Town

[lpf173]

I love this song, never heard it before, dont think it lp though.

[SolidShinoda]

This is a tribute by a band called City Clay, it is not LP, nor Mike, and it is not on lp.com.

[TheMonsterman97]

best song ever!!!

[streetz3540]

this is not mike shinoda

[Oman397]

For everyone saying its not mike, it is you just can barely tell cause they edited his voice so much and i think its fort minor not linkin park

[farxadd1]

This is Mike...this song is a tribute to 2pac.........from LP

[aznp2pro4u]

it is mike

its on linkin park.com

[iStylix]

Sounds more like the lead from krazy town?

[JungKathi]

haha i think it sounds like him :D

[rubiksman333]

doesn't even sound like mike

[Fallenwings27]

confused.com

[TwiceTaylor]

this is not mike and this is not linkin park xD don´t know who it is. but not mike or linkin park...

[corruptthefaith]

WAIT A MINUTE JUST WAIT A guy with the name unforgettable sound tells you its not Shinoda and you dont believeXD WTF

[corruptthefaith]

This doesnt sound like Mike all AT ALL and I fucking love the Shinoda this is not him I listen to Linkin Park religiously

[carinha12321]

its not mike but ive heard this voice before...

[juniorstc2020]

you guys that dont think this is mike r fuckin idiots if u wur true fans you wud kno that its his side project fort minor idiots i aint even a big linkin park fan and even i kno this

[BigDog22808]

not mike, but cool song

[HuMiL1At0r]

Nah that ain't Mike i always recognise him

[DropHugsNotBombs]

This is city clay

[Trent7224]

Ya it's not really mikes style but if it is him it's a group thing. It kinda sounds like chester in the background softly half way through the song. Linkin park does do alot of new sounds constinately though

[COOPxx93]

@Trent7224 you're actually right. this is Linkin Park and the song is called "Tupac and Biggie Tribute"...

[crxpunkb16]

hey i like the mix good job!

[Syltan00b]

far from mike

[GoGirlfriendKylie]

I've been a fan of LP since their 90's work. I know all of his Fort Minor, collabs, projects, mixtapes, and podcasts work. Mike's voice hasn't really changed. This song doesn't show it's his style. He wouldn't use the word "dogg" for of all. Mike has only mentioned Tupac in 1 song: The Handsome Boy Modeling School's 'Spell It Out' as Pac. The lowest flow his voice has gone is in Cigarettes. Also, Mike would mention any doubts and projects in his blog.

[LinkinParkKanenite]

Nah not Shinoda

[ksillapoet]

quien canta esta cancion es muy bueno

[duyet]

no way it can be Mike

[TiFFerzZehNiNjA]

noooooooo this sounds like the guy from thousand foot krutch -_-; or possibly p.o.d.

[dutchberg]

Such a great song, the texte is good and the beat is good.

It could be a song from Mike but its not him :)

The singer is City Clay, also a good rapper.

Enjoy the song because its awesome :)

Mike Shinoda 4 life !

[madnessgodman]

What's the artist's name?

[madnessgodman]

@madnessgodman The real artist's name?

[theartbook35]

All right, for the all the people fighting over whether or not this is Mike Shinoda, do us all a favor: Look up the Fort Minor song "Remember the Name", and listen to the first verse. Then try to come back and tell me if this guy here sounds like Mike. Secondly, these are okay lyrics, but Mike writes much more creative things than this.

[abadeefun2]

its soooo not mike!!!!!!!!!!! i know mike literally know him ive met linkin park

[tashabumming]

@abadeefun2 sorry but I rofled at your comment hun, having met someone once doesnt mean you "KNOW" them

[david000009]

@abadeefun2 You don't 'literally know him' you're just acquainted with him.

[abadeefun2]

@david000009 my dad knows mikes dad really well

[lpxminor]

this aint mike its called city clay by 2pac

[MrPigeon08]

@lpxminor its not 2pac is it ?!? doesnt sound anything like him

[MrKawiman94]

@MrPigeon08 no, the band IS City Clay

[alfonso6191]

@lpxminor im sure you read the description by now

[StephRockA7X]

its tribal ink man not mike

[elitexero]

If you're so sure I'm wrong, post some proof. If this was an unreleased Mike Shinoda track wouldn't you think it would be a little more widespread than 2 youtube videos and some random lyrics sites. This is not Mike Shinoda. Again, for the 5th time - this sounds nothing like Mike, this sounds like some so-cal white rapper, in fact he sounds more like the rapper from Crazy Town than Mike.

Oh and nail in the coffin - this track is called City Clay - Tupac & Biggie Tribute

Look it up.

[huckerby846]

this was a tribute by Mike Shinoda to notorious BIG.

[Aervu]

Hahaha, it's like Mike, but that's not The Glue! :D

[Ddogg2014]

u guys dont know too much about music studios do u

[gambla153]

this is not even close to being mike. this is crap

[1337Palkia]

@gambla153 no You are crap...

[elitexero]

This isn't Mike Shinoda.

This voice is way too low to begin with, but if you'll notice that before Meteora, Mike's rapping voice wasn't as low as it had become at that point.

Just because someone said it's Mike doesn't mean it's Mike. Sounds nothing like him.

[huckerby846]

@elitexero it IS mike

[elitexero]

@huckerby846 No, it's not. This is not Mike. Believe me, I know what I'm talking about when it comes to Mike Shinoda and Linkin Park

[huckerby846]

well im guessing you dont know as much as you think. This IS mike shinoda, i'd bet my house on it, it was a tribute that mike done for the late notorious BIG, and tupac. I am also a huge fan of linkin park and fort minor, so i also know what i am talking about

[elitexero]

@huckerby846 This is not Mike :)

Do a search for Mike Shinoda on the BMI repetoire catalogue. I know what I'm talking about. I've been a fan since 2001, I hold one of the world's biggest collections of LP merch and I've heard LP material you will probably not and will never hear.

But just for fun, because I know you won't find any proof aside from a couple of mislabeled youtube videos and some low grade lyric sites, find some proof.

[huckerby846]

look, it was never OFFICIALLY released, so there wont be anything on the BMI! i dont care if you live next door to shinoda, you are wrong.

[huckerby846]

and what do you think you have heard that i aint?? i have heard all the stuff hybrid theory done as well

[huckerby846]

and i own the reanimation album

[BgBlackGeer]

mike rocks!

[fristi1994]

this is Mike shinoda. listen to it very good, hes rapping at a lower tone, thats all.

[Joeyy1992]

y is it so hard for ppl to unstand it is mike and chester way before they were big its a rare track i heard this song a long time ago maybe 5 years ago

[ahmedkossay]

no its mike's voice people

[0melon1992]

unfortunetly... fake! :(

[3l1tehayAbusa]

This is NOT Mike Shinoda. Or Chester.

[Homicide17]

This ain't Mike!

[maeaeck]

Chesters Voice is much higher as the one at 2:08. It can't be chesters voice!! I think it is the singers voice...

[diablito58]

Okay Umm.. Who Is Saying "This Song Is Dedicated To Tupac Shakur and Biggie Smalls"?

[theSVRTV]

this is tribal ink!

[tylerwwev2]

Chester voice at 2:08

[maeaeck]

Is this really mike shinoda singing?

It doesn't sound like him singing in "no roads left but one"...???

[diablito58]

In "No Roads Left" It Is Mike Shinoda

[emopunk923]

[ksillapoet]

[WhitandDavi]

[CCtjehh]

maybe it's chester at the background who's singing BUT it's defently NOT MIKE SHINODA who raps this! it sounds a bit like the hypodroniks but I have no idea who raps this, anyways not mike.

[15stevieg]

lol...mate...this is mike shinoda and chester benington is only featured in it...mike shinoda is a RAPPER he raps he knows rappers thats why he RAPS for linkin park...mike shinoda is very close friends to chester bennington so hes featured in this song

[15stevieg]

[mikeshinodalovesme]

[JustSDT]

[LPfun92]

Yep i am pretty sure too, that is Chester voice at 2:08

[JessSHEEP]

This is linkin park, eminem and 50 cent n sum others tht made this song for tupac n biggie smalls as a tribute

[OfficialDjBruno30xD]

its sounds like tribal lnk or something like this..

[UnforgettableSound2]

This isn't Mike Shinoda nor Linkin Park.

If it was, wouldn't they have said something about it on their website by now?

[OfficialDjBruno30xD]

agree with you man !

[Baby1Obito]

wow , unforgettablesound , im a big fan :|

[Ddogg2014]

@UnforgettableSound2 r u kidding me? that is too Mike Shinoda

[ECWUSA1995]

nice song sorta sad though.

[Kangaroo9398]

defenly not mike

[diablito58]

Listen To It At 2:09 Tell Me Who It Is

[Kangaroo9398]

u can check CMs at previous pages

[xXxExfactor]

This is Linkin Park. Search up "Tupac and Biggie Tribute by Linkin Park".

Doesn't really sound like LP but it is I guess.

[mikesin0da]

I Know this song... there are various artists.... Linkin Park featuring....music is from LP.. brad is playing the guitar, rob the drums, etc...... also chester does back vocal at 3:32(i think).. check it out.... this song was written for 2 PAC!!!!

[15fabregas4]

sound alike i gotto say

[koolness100]

nope not mike shinoda dude no it isn't

[lostagne]

it's not mike.. i had a CD with this track on and it was made by someone else.. ill try to find it out

[CCtjehh]

it defenly doesn't sound like Mike so I'm sure you're right ;]

[BlancoStarz]

Look i now belive this is NOT mike's song. Maybe some parts are from him or whatever but since i listen to this music on youtube (about a year) things have been ADDED to it near the end (wtf?)

Or maybe am crazy cause am a pothead but am sure mike dint say st-clair and chester wasnt signing like that near 3:45 to 4:00

[ScOoOm]

you should download the song

[PlankSCO]

This is Mike.

[happyflip500]

2:09 is mike .

This song was made by mike.

[PsykeSoldier]

Okay 2:09 actually does sound quite similar to Mike.

100% certain that this is not Mike, certain parts of the song have "Shinoda's flow"

Shinoda's tracks seem to have more bass behind them though... This one has a lot of crash cymbals, Mike's solo music doesn't really have much of that...

And this as some one says does sound wannabe-ish, it seems they're tryin to hard... Mike doesn't try to sound black, I mean listen to his FM stuff, he doesn't force a deep voice out

Long story short=Not Mike

[Twilightsong1021]

It's not mike, but i still like it

[Synnergy08]

That's not Mike Shinoda xD

[eleckson]

sounds like a mexican

[LPkeykey2010]

[blitzryzarmy619]

[Zung92]

[lizzimisery]

[FracturedCrest13]
