Tuhia he haere tonu mo tenei whitianga - I te Hanuere 28, 2018, i whakautu a Shinoda ki tetahi tweet mai i tetahi kaiwhaiwhai e paatai ana mo tona heke mai me Linkin Park, me te tuhi "Kei te hiahia tonu ahau ki te haere tonu me LP, me nga taangata ano hoki. He nui ngā mahi hei hanga anō, me ngā pātai hei whakautu, nō reira ka roa te wā". I te Poutu-te-rangi 29, i kii a Shinoda kaore ia i te tino mohio mo te heke mai o Linkin Park i a ia e uiui ana ki a "Vulture". I te Paenga-whāwhā 17, i whakaingoatia a Linkin Park mō ngā tohu e toru i te 2018 Billboard Music Awards
, engari kihai i riro tetahi o ratou. I whakawhiwhia te roopu ki te Tohu George me Ira Gershwin mo te Whanaketanga Waiata o te Ao i UCLA i te Mei 18.
