I decided to wrote about it here as a potentional wrong information, because it is a wrong information but I can see why someone did it. you can see the album version on both vinyls: https://lpcatalog.com/content/items/fortminor/2005petrified-rtn/0093624281900-us_3.jpg https://lpcatalog.com/content/items/fortminor/2005petrified-rtn/0093624281900-us_4.jpg the problem is that, there was never album version on both of those tracks on any physical release. Both the "radio edit" and what they call it "album version" were single versions, they didn't have transitions to other songs. I think the person who was writing it, when was thinking about not censored version, decided to write is as "album version" instead "explicit". The digital release of the single had the single versions of all tracks too and at some point the explicit versions on it also had 'album version'. But the label was doing a big update in late 2012 and since then the single now contains the album versions of those songs. Like month ago I updated the Petrified / Remember The Name songs pages on Linkinpedia over this information, and I did make a separate version for each track with annotation.

When the band will be on tour with a lot of people from LP Team, is there will be enough people necessary that can do some preparations for potential 20 release of MTM in that time?

Linkin Park's 2025 From Zero World Tour concludes with stops in Curitiba, São Paulo, Brasília, and Mexico City. The band stops by Formula One’s São Paulo Grand Prix before their final show at Corona Capital.

One more thing. https://i.ibb.co/gbHyKn1Q/3455767.jpg The 4K upgrade has more video on the sides; for example, you can see that there is more shadow and the OG version is more cropped on the sides. So, just based on that, can we assume that the video was likely cropped on the top and bottom instead of zooming in? The screen of the frame original was taken from the DVD rip, but I also compared it and it is exactly the same as a frame of the iTunes video (with just worse quality).

Oh... now I understand For some reason I was too much thinking about the original version and that those "additional parts" in it are zoomed in and I was trying to prove they are not (wtf). Sorry my bad.

Both versions have basically full video, but the one that you have seen on iTunes contains additional video, which consist of the main video. Just small part of video from the bottom was added above the main video and, small part of the video from the top was added below the main video. Those are exact same video parts, there is no zoom or anything like that: https://ibb.co/8ns9Zk0C Also, here's a comparison of the exact same frame, you can see that the shadow of Mike's head in the original is full, while in the 4K version is not because it was cropped: https://ibb.co/fzbdhhHF

So that's it? I was hoping for an 20 minute video with interview and that he will play a song he never played. No offense but LP already published the video of him doing drums for TEM and that was long time ago.

I was saying on the chat the other day that the version before the upgrade also was not having those effects because the video was cropped. And I thought that video on youtube was edited by a fan who uploaded it and then the label in order to upgrade it had to edit it the same way (just cropped it), because youtube will not accept it. So maybe that was the reason? You can watch 30 seconds preview of the original version with those effects on iTunes here. and you will see what kind of those effects were.

With today's upgrade "Believe Me" is now 4K, "Petrified" is now full HD. Added both to main post.

https://linkinpedia.com/wiki/Remember_The_Name#Music_Video Well sometimes is good to look on Linkinpedia, everything is described there. You guys spoted everything except Linkin Park poster. Also, there is somewhere in the video (I'm hinting) a huge, huge SOB "Megadef" album cover/poster.

The previous version of RTN, which was shown on TV and released everywhere on iTunes/Apple Music and other digital platforms and included on Fort Minor Militia DVD was alternate version containing the censored version of the song, and contained additional effects that are not present in that new 4K upgraded! Is it mean that they treat this new 4K explicit version of the music video as the final version and the previous was some kind of directors cut version?

Happy to writing it - they are doing it! The label started to upgrade Fort Minor's music videos. Currently "Remember The Name" is 4K and "Where'd You Go" is full HD. EDIT: 12/16 "Believe Me" is now 4K, "Petrified" full HD

It would be even easier if they would export the song from stems and just master it. Stems likely never contains transitions. Transitions usually are made after the song is already mixed/mastered. So you editing the already mastered files to make the transitions from them and at the same time you can keep the already mastered non-transitions version of all songs for later if you want to release the single version of any of them. It's hard to say why they did how they did. Maybe they couldn't find the stems? Or maybe they have the stems but they were not mixed, so like making the same mix will be a bit difficult. Or maybe a decision from the beginning was made that they will edit them, without even searching for the stems?

Ap was mentioning Mike a few times in the interviews, Mike was in one of his videos, he mentioned him on the "Get Busy Commettee - Uzi Does It", and I have thoughts about it, but after seeing this video, I'm not sure anymore if my thoughts are correct. It kind of feels like he changed a bit what he was thinking about Mike. Or maybe I'm wrong about it.

Yeah, too bad that to remove transition they also remove portion of intro/outro of some songs. That sucks. But it is what it is. Shame. Also, not sure about it but if they use the CD source, I mean if they use the 16-bit lossless that they have and then export it to 24-bit/96.0kHz then it is out of sense too in that case.
