27日相關報導
　　本周中西流行音樂排行榜，周杰倫在華語雙榜的王座不動如山，但「娜姊」瑪丹娜（Madonna）上周g-music與五大西洋榜的雙料冠軍寶座沒坐熱，本周就硬生生被搖滾樂團「聯合公園」（Linkin Park）主唱麥克（Mike Shinoda）另組的「黑暗堡壘」（Fort Minor）樂團踢下。 娜姊新專輯才推出，已經在各大舞廳成為「國歌」，但本周銷售卻敗給黑暗堡壘。
　　為了與聯合公園有所區別，麥克以真正樂器演奏，取代電子合成樂，曲風也由新金屬樂轉化為嘻哈樂。在死忠聯合公園迷的護航下，限量三千張的預購版在發片前已搶購一空。麥克已得知在台的銷售反應，表示會盡最大所能來台會歌迷。【吳禮強、李子凡╱台北報導】

簡介
　　FORT MINOR，黑暗堡壘，乍聽之下像是個新團體，不過事實上卻是只有Mike一人獨挑大樑，不同的歌曲配合著不同的合作對象。Mike這次找了嘻哈界各赫赫有名的歌手、團體們一同合作激盪出不同於時下的音樂元素，包括Styles of Beyond、Black Thought、Holly Brook、Common和之前以合作多次的Jay-Z等。The Rising Tied，火線同盟，正是Mike與大夥們精心製作的巨大火花！

聲明
　　Mike雖然自組了一個新團，但是 LINKIN PARK（聯合公園）並沒有因此解散，Mike 也沒有退團，聯合公園≠黑暗堡壘！！

　17. Be Somebody (featuring Lupe Fiasco, Holly Brook and Tak of Styles of Beyond)

Ugh, M.S., Lupe
You know I'm a fan, man, I'm a real fan
Gonna be somebody
Feel real honored to be up in here, you know I'm saying?
Gonna be someone
They had to bring out the expensive mics for this one
Gonna be somebody
You know I'm saying the $7,000 headphones for this one here, know I'm sayin'?
Gonna be someone
Come on, talk to me

This is a story of them against us, win or lose
Forcing your feet into someone else's shoes
Everybody's got something to say
That we ought to live their way, what we're doing's not okay
In this world, everybody's got a chip
On both sides of the neck, got no respect, wait up a sec
You ever feel like the pressure's too much to take? Too much weight?
Ladies and gentlemen, if anybody can hear me right now, please shout back
We're not the only ones feeling so trapped in the dream of somebody else
In fact, they got their heads full of some overblown scheme
Opportunity they missed back when they were sixteen
And all they want to do is push you to be that
And all you want to do is scream back

Gonna be somebody
For anybody telling me I can't, yeah
Gonna be someone
For anyone who told me I had no chance
Gonna be somebody
I'm telling you the time has come, like that
Gonna be someone
And maybe you'll get it when I'm finally done

We don't sleep to dream, we sleep to build stamina
Energy to do our thing, get your camera
Cause this ride is about to begin
Sit down and buckle it in, let me say it again
In this world, everybody's got a chip
On both sides of the neck, got no respect, wait up a sec
When I was young, they said the odds of making it were slim to none
Ladies and--Fuck it, I'm tired of them saying the dream you have doesn't exist
Telling you you're worthless, saying you should quit
Basically telling you that you'll never be shit
Really, they're pissed cause they'll never acheive
Some opportunity they missed back when they were sixteen
And all they want to do is push you to be that
And all you want to do is scream back

Uh, did God think you're crazy mumbling to yourself in the basement all day
Uh, uh, uh and to yourself, my pops didn't dig it with shovelin it to myself
My boys used to get it, they dug it because they felt
My undertakin' took me, I was making in my stealth
A wealth of rhymes of crazy, I would chuckle to myself
Then they went into the mental rolodex
See I'm 'bout heart like my brain in my chest
And I took 'em to school where subjects were getting felt
Books under my seat, notebook layin on my desk
My teacher's like "Mr. Jacko?", "Yes?"
"With all that knowledge, you ain't trying to college?
Be a lawyer or a doctor, and get a whole lot of dollas?
Rather degrade woman and glorify violence?"
Well, work that works for me might not work for you
No homework? I got work to do

Gonna be somebody
For anybody telling me I can't, yeah
Gonna be someone
For anyone who told me I had no chance
Gonna be somebody
I'm telling you the time has come, like that
Gonna be someone
And maybe you'll get it when I'm finally done
I'm finally done

　18. There They Go (featuring Sixx John)

Yeah, ladies and gentlemen, pleased to meet you
I go by the name of Sixx John
Of course you know Mike Shinoda

Uh oh, let's go
One time
For my Machine Shop crew
And then it's two times
S.O.B. and L.P. too
And then it's three times
It's Mike and Sixx on the track
And then four times
When we come in through the back they're saying

Oh no, close the door
Shut the lights and start the show
Better let everybody know
Get on the mic and there they go
Oh no, close the door
Shut the lights and start the show
Better let everybody know
Get on the mic and there they go

Dangerous bitch, ya can't really hang with us and this
Everybody's so afraid of us, shit
Makes me wanna hang it up and quit
Forget about all the things you heard before
'Bout time that we're kicking down your door
Everybody's gonna hit the fuckin' floor
Please Mike don't hurt me anymore
I don't gotta have a secret lie or an alibi
Everybody knows why I'm here
Not just for some crack, get a bottle
Let's crack you over the head with a bottle of beer
So just listen up there powder-puff
Better believe that I'm not playing
You can love it, you can hate
But don't mistake it, everybody's saying

Oh no, close the door
Shut the lights and start the show
Better let everybody know
Get on the mic and there they go
Oh no, close the door
Shut the lights and start the show
Better let everybody know
Get on the mic and there they go

What you really wanna do is this
Just make believe that I don't exist
But you won't cause everytime you go to spit [Yo, check this]
I talk over you just like this [Shit]
It's annoying just for you
You could scream all day 'til your face is blue
I'm getting in your head and you know it too
And that's just me you don't know my crew [Machine Shop]
My man Sixx John understand though
The way that he flows, you can call him Rambo
Never missed a shot, never run outta ammo
Come out wit' heat like a goddamned commando
And add in S.O.B., Ryu, Tak, Vin Skully
Cheapshot and now you see, fuck with me? Nah! Sixx!

Oh no, uh oh, whatever you get when you see that door closed
I'm a bail through the back straight to the bar so I can act a fool
I figured you guys would get a little surprise
Your eyes wide when it's me and Mike Shinod
I'm just plain ol Sixx John from the Nam district
This is not supposed, I still talk with awkward speech
I'm like a dog that's off his leash
Step out with a Fort Minor patch on a black tee
Niggas scared to walk these streets, I ain't trippin homie
Talk is cheap, acapellla or we can walk on a beat
And if that ain't enough action
I got seventeen pages in this little magazine I keep

We got this place rocking beat knocking, non stoppin'
If ya'll all with it let me hear it now, yeah, yo
We got this place rocking beat knocking, non stoppin'
If ya'll all with it let me hear it now, yeah, yo

One time
For my Machine Shop crew
And then it's two times
S.O.B. and L.P. too
And then it's three times
It's Mike and Sixx on the track
And then four times
We do it like that, like that, like that, like that

Fort Minor, Shinoda, Machine Shop, Green Lantern
Better be ridiculous, how sick is this?

　19. The Hard Way (featuring Kenna)

Mike :
Come with me / let me walk you thru the world that i currently stay in
You can take a look around and tell me if I'm mistaken
You can meet and talk to / everybody that I live with
Maybe you can tell me why everybody's so distant
Is it me or maybe / when I look around daily
I don't even know the people I can put my trust in lately
People that I used to hang with / now they're acting so different
I'm still the same person why doesn't anybody listen
Can somebody please / just explain to me
What happened to the why that we away said we'd be
Right now I don't know why i pushed through the pain that I got through
And I'm losing hope

Kenna :
Deafening voices / that frequency inside my head
That says / I'm going at it the hard way
I focus / get everything inside out of my brain
That claims / I'm going at it the hard way

Mike :
Come with me / let me walk you thru the world that I currently live in
Not a things is forgotten / not a thingis forgiven
Nobody can hold their own underneath the weight but
Nobody can take the blame for their own mistakes so
What do you do when somebody lets you down
And you wanna say something but you can't cause they're not around
Inside you think they know the extent of the pain
But they won't even admit that they were the one to blame
Can somebody please / just explain to me
What happened to the why that we away said we'd be
'Cause right now I don't know why I pushed through the pain that I got through
And I'm losing hope

Kenna :
Deafening voices / that frequency inside my head
That says / I'm going at it the hard way
I focus / get everything inside out of my brain
That claims / I'm going at it the hard way

Mike :
Can somebody please / just explain to me
What happened to the why that we away said we'd be
Right now I don't know why i pushed through the pain that I got through
And I'm losing hope
Give me one reason not to

Kenna :
Deafening voices / that frequency inside my head
That says / I'm going at it the hard way
I focus / get everything inside out of my brain
That claims / I'm going at it the hard way
