Nobody argued that he was the vocalist before passing, but was the promotion for Amends really necessary? the way they did it? Idk man.. glad you enjoy it and worship it tho

Labels do not only push potentially big songs, they seek revenue for whatever is published

I mean, did Mike use chester vocals for PT or the music in hif nft's? sounds like you guys are laughing cuz u ran out of excuses

Not anything they release is a cashgrab, but if they use Chesters image, vocals, legacy, etc for the sake of making money; then sorry but those guys are assholes (lets not forget how they milked the LPA lol) Mike NFT's are pieces of art (that i personally wouldnt buy lol) that he can sell. Is a Picasso painting a cashgrab? to put an exagerated example. Mike is using his own image and name to sell, GD are using Chester's and LP's. Thats why in this forum people kind of dislike GD

Do you happen to know how the music business works. Do you think all the interviews he is doing now are because he seeks them? do you think the video, the instastories, the promotion, is stuff he comes up with and not the record label. We are old enough to know the basics of the industry by now

Thats what happens when you are under a label

PT was not about Chesters death, it was about the process of recovering after a traumatic event. GD straight up has Chester on it. They milked it, they milked the LPA, they laughed at LP fans, at Mike and kind of, at Chester.

People working for money what a surprise. Considering you probably saying this due to the saltiness caused by GD's cashgrab let me point out a difference. GD is milking Chester's legacy, MS is doing work that has nothing to do with LP or Chester

Those would be good ways. PT was an excellent start with songs like Over Again, IOU, Promises or Running from my Shadow

Chester Bennington, Mike Shinoda and Brad Delson, to name 3

So what do you really expect him to come out with? this could be a good topic to talk about

We He is capable of a lot more but remember that HT and Meteora are not really much more difficult to make than PT or HE. ATS would be more difficult, but i doubt thats what he would enjoy making right now

At 15 its normal to think HT and Meteora are dope and LT and THP are cringy. Then one grows up and starts to cringe with HT and Meteora and enjoy calmly what came after, which is what happened to the band

LP at its peak, cd full of bangers (except hit the floor, what were they thinking lol)

I mean, Shinoda on LP has a sound, and Shinoda alone has a different one. If this is what he enjoys doing, why not? Id rather have this music than him talking bout gangs, guns, drugs, cash, sluts or whatever

Problem is Mike experimentation goes on the HE way, instead of ATS experimental, to say one example. Mike solo does not have the strenght that LP has, and he can not release things for the sake of pleasing fans due to label restrictions. Therefore, i think its quite obvious hes gonna put out stuff only if there is demand (as there was for PT)

The point is its not the same to release a debut album or a follow-up album. I highly doubt ATS would have had the same commercial and popular success if it was the bands first album

I really dont think this album has anything to do with PT. PT was his take on the feelings of Chester passing, shared with the closest fans so they could get closure He belongs to a label, he needs to justify the investments. He is not in a place where he can just put out music freely for masses to share without a profit for him/the label Debut albums have nothing to do with the following ones. On a debut album the artist shows a first glimpse of its sound, not completely defined, that can portray in which direction the music of the artist can go. Would LP be where they are if their first release was ATS?

I think its easier than that. He did not want HE to even come out. People insisted so he put it out. Mike is a smart guy, he doesnt want to publish an album that would flop, giving him bad press and rep with the label. Therefore, smartly enough, he will put out an album if the numbers justify the risk. Hey, thats exactly what companies do before launching a product

PT has nothing to do with this but ok

Everybody knows why, he prefers underground upcoming artists.an

Classic video that you would see in the screens of HM or Forever 21. With that said, if he only cared about popularity he would comfortably make a song with Eillish or similar, instead he chooses upcoming artists. Good for him, hes having fun

I dont think CoronaJams are serious enough to keep track of all of them. Its not like its singles, its literally him teaching people how to make beats.

About NFT's

It would be a flop if he wanted to make bare money out of it. He didn't even wanna publish the song lol whatever comes is gonna be a success
