Remember the Name

About Remember the Name

"Remember the Name" is a rap song by Fort Minor, the side project of rock band Linkin Park's co-lead vocalist Mike Shinoda. It is the second single from his 2005 album The Rising Tied (2005) and features underground hip hop band Styles of Beyond. It was released alongside the album's first single, "Petrified". A music video for the song was released in 2005, directed by Kimo Proudfoot. The single initially failed to chart. However, in 2006, the single received moderate success due to its use in the media and possibly the success of "Where'd You Go", another Fort Minor single. Despite numerous low peaks in different charts, the song was used extensively in the media, particularly at sports events, and eventually received a Platinum certification by the RIAA in 2009 and a Silver certification by the BPI in 2017. more »
