A solo project from Linkin Park's Mike Shinoda, Fort Minor's The RisingTide album was entirely written and produced by him, with executivebacking from his homie Jay-Z. While not as aggro as the stuff he does withhis primary crew, it still maintains that heavy sound, fusing rock-tingeddrums and guitar riffs with Timbaland/Neptune-style synth squiggles. Therecord also touches on unique issues; one song addresses Japaneseinternment camps during WWII, while another was inspired by a RobertAltman film.
