I don't know why people have to categorize things in music under music. It's music and it's music and it's music. When you start putting genres on things, I think it's completely ridiculous, and I hate that.
If you're a fan of hurting others, talking down to, or trying to bring others down, then never call yourself a fan of mine.
If you have enough strength to help yourself, you have enough strength to help those in need. Never pass up an opportunity.
LOVE WHAT YOU DO! Whatever that is, put your entire heart & soul into it, or don't do it at all.
People can say what they want but it doesn't stop me from doing what I'm crazy about doing.

Be your own person because no one can take that away from you.

Wake up and create a purpose for yourself. Don't ask the meaning of life, ask yourself the meaning of each given day.
Your uniqueness is your strength. Remember that. Don't mold yourself to others or to what others think. You're an individual. You're special.
You have many options in life, never make giving up one of them
What I think of when I think of nu-metal: structured, heavy music that has a point. It's angry just like all the other music, but the bigger parts are bigger and the powerful parts are more powerful and the slow parts slower.
We'll have a part and it's clearing up, so you think something is going to happen and it totally stops and does something completely different and then the part you thought was going to happen comes out of completely nowhere.
I had actually hurt my neck, and because I went a while without getting it taken care of - it was pushing up against the back of my heart - and because I have heart issues, they thought it was this whole big deal. So I spent a good three days in the hospital, two nights in the ICU.
Linkin Park has been a band for such a long time, for me, in my eyes. I was 16 years old when I first heard them. I heard 'Hybrid Theory,' and I was floored at what I was listening to. It was angry yet melodic, it had hip-hop and it had - it was just different, good. Good songwriting.
