Chester Bennington
They are looking for a another vocalist and know about one guy
The musicians called Bennington and asked to send them their vocals on a demo cassette. Bennington, looking up from his birthday celebration, recorded a demo tape and gave it to the guys to listen to on the phone. His unique voice made a huge impression on the group. Chester flew to Los Angeles the next day.
a group appeared
The guys had a problem with a British electronic group called Hybrid and accuses them of plagiarism, so Chester Bennington came up with a new name for the group — Lincoln Park, because he constantly went to the studio through this park in Santa Monica
But the domain lincolnpark.com was busy. In English, the surname Lincoln is pronounced as Linkin, and the group was named Linkin Park, having received the domain linkinpark.com

Mike took part in the creation of almost all the covers
Mike formed a solo project called Fort Minor in 2003-2004. He explained the name of the project in an interview:
"Fort" symbolizes the more aggressive side of the music. "Minor" can mean several things: when talking about music theory, "Minor" means "dark" and the minor tone is lower. I wanted to name the album more than be proud of my name on the cover, I want people to pay more attention to the music than to me.

The Rising Tied
This series featured in Mike’s first public display of Diamonds Spades Hearts & Clubs art. In addition to the 10 Fort Minor paintings, the show also included 13 originals and 5 collaborations. The Diamonds Spades Hearts & Clubs exhibition opened at Gallery 1988 on November 19, 2006.

On 25th January 2018, Shinoda released the EP under his own name
It dedicated to his feelings after the death of his friend Chester Bennington, who committed suicide. It is because of the issues raised in the songs, Shinoda decided to publish the album under his own name, without using his previous Fort Minor alias
In early March, he unexpectedly announced that he was working on a solo album, inviting fans to meet him that same day in Los Angeles to hear the new song and join the music video. The fan invite event was documented and shown in the music video for "Crossing a Line"
“It's a journey out of grief and darkness, not into grief and darkness. If someone went through something like that, I hope you feel less alone. If it has not happened, I hope you feel grateful”
in 2021, Mike
posted the song
"Happy Endings"
online
And on December 3, 2021, he released the Ziggurats EP, on which the first NFT generative mixtape was released. It contained 5000 unique audio + visual NFTs on the Tezos network.
