Shinoda constitue la moitié de la puissance vocale de Linkin Park, formation couronnée d’un Grammy Award et certifiée multi-platine outre-Atlantique, celui-là même qui échange des diatribes diaphragmatiques avec le chanteur Chester Bennington et insuffle une bonne dose de hip hop sur une scène rock alternative bouillonnante.
Shinoda a effectivement toujours dû - jusqu’à présent - partager ses racines rap avec d’autres influences.
Si Shinoda a choisi ce nom de Fort Minor (= fort mineur) pour illustrer une dynamique entre deux contraires - quelque chose de grand et de fort contre quelque chose de petit et fluet (ou de sombre musicalement) - le titre de l’album est aussi un jeu de mots.
