    In a recent interview with Rolling Stone Magazine, Busta Rhymes has revealed that Linkin Park will be featured on a new track of his titled "It Looks Like We Made It" off of his highly anticipated new album, "Back On My BS" currently scheduled for a December 4th release.

    “It feels like Rocky won the fight or something,”
    he says of the triumphant track. “It reminds the people who are successful to go and help those that haven’t been so successful, and represent the unity between people. This song speaks volumes to the globe — it ain’t just about the ‘hood, it ain’t just about the suburbs, it’s about everybody. This is one of those songs that can’t be described better than touching the souls of the common people.”'

    As of this time it is unknown as to whether or not the whole band will make an appearance, or just Mike and Chester, but we will be sure to let you know as more information becomes available.

    Thanks to flipboards19 for the news!

    Not really too excited...I'm kind of afraid it'll just be another 'FM-sounding' song...Not that that's bad...but I would kind of be hoping for LP to go a little more...metal.

    I'm not going to be comparing this to anything we've heard in the past because it would most likely be flat out wrong. Hopefully it will be a dope track. I can't wait to hear it. :)

    THAT I could be excited about, too.

    But I mean...FM has a different sound than LP...even LP's stuff where just mike sings / raps...I don't know...like HHH...it just didn't sound like a LP track to me...more like FM...which is why I'm hoping you can actually hear it's LP like.

    I really love Busta Rhymes...but old school Busta.

    Seeing as he is claiming to return to that on this new album, this could be one very insane track :D.

    Really? Metal? I've never understood this whole metal LP thing, I know they use a LOT of its influences in their music, but why do so many fans want the band to be something they're not? They'll never be a real 'heavy metal' band, so why keep asking for it?

    As for this track, I think it could be really cool. I hope all members of the band worked on it, especially Joe, the guy probably can't remember how to work a turn table after his lack of stuff on MTM haha (Yes I know he recorded stuff that was dropped, just making a joke, don't stress out! :p)

    Haha yea I get the joke....but really....did you happen to see him at their PR tour? I don't know if he did it on every set list, but at the show I went too....They played setlist C and right after the break for the encore, Joe came out with an insane mix on his turntable...I don't think he's lost anything ;)

    Here's my prediction using evident lyrical arrangements and some form of dialect. The lyrics will be much deeper probably.

    It looks
    like we made it (chester sings)
    flabba blah bah flabba jah (Busta)
    It looks
    like we made it (chester sings)
    flabba blah bah flabba jah (Busta)
    It looks
    like we made it (chester sings)
    flabba blah bah flabba jah (Busta)
    blaaaaaaa blaa bla (chester sings)

    guitar solo. \m/

    thats how i think it will sound like. maybe like a radio-friendly little things with rap. I love that busta song with the orange and the rap about the ass on fire - that vid is so awesome.

    It won't be the entire band , thats impossible. It will probably be Mike or Chester.

    You say this as if you have some way of proving it, which you don't. Full bands have collaborated with other artists many times before (see: Aerosmith/Run DMC, Anthrax/Public Enemy).
