The Rising Tied, the debut album of Fort Minor, was released in November 2005.
Robert Hales directed its first video "Petrified", which was released the previous month.
Jay-Z, who had previously collaborated with Linkin Park on the 2004 album Collision Course, was the executive producer for The Rising Tied.
Shinoda told Corey Moss of MTV News that he imposed on himself a requirement to play all the instruments and write all the lyrics to the album except for the strings, percussion, or choir parts.
"Where'd You Go", its fourth single, peaked at No.
