It was tough to decide, but ... I think my favourite rap verse by Shinoda is his verse in "Feel Like Home" off "The Rising Tied". :/ The verses on "High Voltage" are a close second, though
Spit drips from the jaw of the witless witness Cryptic colloquialism shifts your midriff Dark all I do embark the shadows Involved with my thought catalog, analogue, rap catalog Keep my distance, and fear resistance, hurt by persistence The twisted web of tangled lies Strangles my hope to waste and numbs the taste And I'm forced to face these hate crimes Against the state of being Feeling the weightlessness pressed between the ceiling Reeling around room, riding a bubble of sound proof It's the frequency making you sha-shake with every boom Involuntary muscle contraction Ignoring and drinking musical gas fueled euphoria The sound pounds to make the dead flush To have you a head rush with red thoughts and said stuff
Favourites: In The End (Demo), Enth E Nd, From The Inside, Figure. 09, Behind Your Lies/QWERTY, Frgt/10 Least Favourite: Numb
Fav: And One, Dedicated, In The End, Papercut, WTCFM, Step Up, High Voltage (LPU2 Live ver.) Least: Don't have any
Fave: anything after 2007 Least: anything before 2007 that isn't Faint On the real though... Fave: I Have Not Begun Least: It's a tie between everything on Meteora that isn't Faint
Honestly my favourite has to be Bleed It Out. He just sounds like he's having fun rather than spitting out rhymes for the sake of making a song. And the Burn It Down rap has really grown on me too. Least favourite has gotta be the cheesy stuff from the HT/Meteora days.
Fav: In The End and QWERTY Least: Petrified Cheesy? You may not like old LP or like it less than new LP but there is no Mike's rapping back then was cheesy whatsoever. If you don't like the rapping back then, thats fine but it is not cheesy at all.
Favorite: Hands Held High Least Favorite: Hard to choose, but probably Waiting For The End. I think the whole song should have been sung by Chester only.
