Mike Shinoda Interlude 1
[Mike Shinoda]
People always ask me “Do I consider myself more rock or more hip-hop?”
That’s a tough question to answer because, you know, I started listening to hip-hop when I was real young, and then, eventually I was listening to more rock, and then, it kinda went back and forth, then I listen to all the different types of music, and it’s like most people… the most important thing is that you’re true to where you come from and who you are… ya know I’m not… I don’t come from the same place as Public Enеmy or NWA or Led Zeppelin, but I makе music based on who I am and where I’m from
For any artist, as long as you’re doing that, you stay true to yourself
Y-you’re putting your time and you’ve got the skills, then you can hopefully make some music that inspires people
