Shinoda is half the vocal firepower of the multi-platinum, Grammy
Award-winning band Linkin Park, trading diaphragmatic diatribes with singer
Chester Bennington and infusing the searing alternative rock with equally
intense hip-hop. In collaboration with Jay-Z they also released six tracks on a
groundbreaking EP, "Collision Course," which garnered rave reviews.

The variety of
themes, styles and moods he creates makes this side project likely to do
much more than simply satisfy existing Linkin Park fans; it threatens to
expose Shinoda as a rap devotee who is as at home in hip-hop as he is in
the cross -genre hybrid of Linkin Park. Each beam is capable of delivering up to 80 channels of
high quality digital audio and multimedia programming directly to WorldSpace
Satellite Radios anytime and virtually anywhere.
