and today, we are gonna surprise some of my fans.

♪ (upbeat techno intro) ♪

- (React) By any chance, do you know what you all

have in common? - We are all people.

- (React) You are also all big Linkin Park fans.

- Aww. - (React) Mm-hmm.

And today, we've brought you in to react to some of their biggest hits

as well as some fun new music, which we're gonna get to

a little later. - I did a video with him years ago,

where Mike Shinoda made fun of me.

- It's an honor. - The highlight of your life. Wow.

- I insulted Mike Shinoda, and then he was like,

"This kid doesn't know what he's talking about."

- (past Daniel) Really simple drum beat in the background,

and I'm like... - (Mike) The guy in the Punisher hat

is being really rude. I have a love-hate relationship

with him, because he simultaneously really seems like he listens

to music passionately and he's very invested in music,

but also he's so opinionated. (laughs)

- Ah, the classic. - Oh yeah.

- (Rna) Classic. - ♪ It starts with one ♪

♪ But in the end, it doesn't even... ♪

- That style, though. - Sorry to bring it up so soon,

but right after Chester passed, Mike Shinoda performed this song

at a festival, and the entire audience did Chester's parts.

- (Mike) ♪ It will eventually be a memory of a time ♪

- (crowd) ♪ I tried so hard ♪ ♪ And got so far ♪

♪ Is be more like me ♪ - It's hard not to just want

to listen to the music. - I know. It's just fun

to sit and listen. I'm honestly absorbing

the music videos too, 'cause I haven't seen these videos

- ♪ When you fall, I'll take my turn ♪

- Oh, I'm getting so many memories right now. Wow.

- Guys, what's it like to look back on this little medley

that showcases their journey as a group?

- It's honestly pretty beautiful. I've hearted all the songs,

so it's on my shuffle. But more recently,

I picked up Beat Saber on the VR, and their albums are the only songs

I've paid for. - I also recently got Beat Saber...

- Nice! - ...and also recently bought

the Linkin Park pack.

And I just beat a song on hard for the first time.

And I was like, "Yes!" - Beautiful.

- (React) As you all probably know, Mike Shinoda is one

of the iconic voices behind the songs of Linkin Park,

but he's also become a successful solo artist.

So, we're gonna take a look at some of his solo stuff.

- ♪ Yo, this whole ass year was a [censored] show ♪

♪ Just finding out now what I didn't know ♪

- His voice is smooth as hell. - (others laugh)

- Damn. - ♪ Tell me what I should've said

and I'll pretend to know that ♪ ♪ Things come out my mouth

that I should probably... ♪ - Is that iann dior?

♪ Over and over, expecting a different result, yeah ♪

- ♪ Hey, at least in my mind ♪ ♪ I'm feeling like I'm ♪

♪ The hero that saves me ♪ ♪ There, I hold my head high ♪

- This melody is so catchy! - (Daniel) It is very catchy.

Mike Shinoda is still killing it. - That's his newest song, yeah.

- Wow. - What did you think?

- That was very good. I really liked that.

- I love it. - What's that one called?

- Happy Endings. - Happy Endings.

- ♪ To lock those doors ♪ ♪ I've seen the smoke

in the sky before ♪ - It's almost like...

- Oh, this one's really fun visually. - ...pop.

- ♪ When the morning comes ♪ ♪ 'Cause this fight we can't ignore ♪

- God, that bass tone is gnarly. - ♪ Seeing the sweat

filling up my eyes ♪ ♪ Tell every friend, enemy,

and flesh and blood ♪ ♪ To send out the battle cry ♪

- That last one was the most shocking to me.

And not in a bad way. It was the most surprising

coming from him. - I really liked it.

It was very different, but it seems like

a very natural evolution with sort of the way

the music industry is going right now and sort of-- 'cause I remember

he said that they try to predict what's gonna be popular

going forward, and they try to see how they can implement

their own influences to make something that people would like.

- He's making songs with collaboration artists,

you know, like iann dior, you know what I mean?

That's totally nail in the head of hitting what's popular

and what's going to be popular in the future,

you know what I mean? That's the front wave

of new music is that kind of stuff right there.

- (React) I think that it would be fun for each of you to try to do

his iconic voice real quick. - (laughs)

- (React) I feel like Adam wants to start.

- All right! Okay, the one I always go is,

♪ One thing, I don't know why ♪ ♪ It doesn't even matter

how hard you try ♪ ♪ I design this ♪

You know, is that pretty close? - (React) That was pretty--

that was-- I think you nailed it.

- I was going to do Fort Minor oddly enough, but I can't get past

two of the lyrics. I know it's like,

♪ 10 percent luck, 20 percent skill ♪ I don't know the rest of it, though.

- (Mike) They didn't get the percentages right

on Remember the Name. They could've--

I mean, 'cause it's 10 percent luck, 20 percent skill, 15 percent concen--

- Shut the [censored] up. - (reactors laugh)

- (Mike) It's 5 percent pleasure and 50 per--

- How would you know?! - (Mike) And 100 percent reason--

- (reactors exclaim) - Oh my god!

- How embarrassing!

- Dude, you guys were so funny! - But aren't you proud that I went

with a Fort Minor song?

- Rna said, "His voice is so smooth."

You said that! - It is!

- You said that just now! - Wow. And you said,

"How would you know?" - Yeah, no, 'cause I needed to know!

(laughs) - Oh my god. You guys, that was so--

you realize I watched the entire thing

you guys just did. - Oh!

- Oh. - Wow. This feels like

a very long time coming. It's been many years.

Wow! It's very-- I still have the T-shirt

you gave me, by the way. I still love it.

I would wear it here, but it reflects and ruins the camera.

- You were-- I did really give Daniel a very hard time when we did that

other React video, because he was so--

you were just-- - I was incredibly dismissive of it.

I was just like, "Forget this. Forget it all."

I didn't even think about what went into it.

- No, you were very confident. You had a point of view,

and you weren't-- it's an opinion,

so you weren't wrong. You just stayed in your opinion.

The entire time, you just said so many nice things,

and you're gonna love watching that back

and knowing that I heard you say those things.

- Well, as soon as he came on, I was like shaking immediately,

because I was like, "Oh my god!" - (React) Rna, you're the one

who said that it would be an honor to be roasted by Mike Shinoda.

- Roast me. Go for it! - (React) And that honor was--

that honor was already bestowed on you, because he roasted you

about your lyrics. What was that like? - Oh! Honestly, that was

totally nerves, 'cause if you play that song for me, I will definitely

sing the whole thing with it. (laughs)

- Isn't it funny how there's a difference

between singing along with a song on the radio
