United States single #2 from "The Rising Tied." No adds date yet, but a potential multi-format smash with the right promotion.
It has a rap verse, a catchy pop hook, and music that could bring it to Hot AC. It's got a very familiar sample, but I won't say where it's from.
Easily top 20 pop, top 30 HAC, and top 40 RHY.

The first single didn't do anything, so I don't think this will either.

The first single didn't do anything, so I don't think this will either. It's gotten fair video play on Fuse and MTV2 (even a few spots on TRL), and had a station or two on pop, but even now, "Remember The Name" is getting more total weekly play. I don't think either ever went for adds though, if this does, I think it'd be a smash!

I've never even heard of them, what kind of music is this? Rock/Pop/Rap? Often described as "underground hip hop," it's Mike Shinoda from Linkin Park's solo project.

They're performing on Jimmy Kimmel Live in a couple of minutes. I think this is likely to be played (since they played two when LP was on there, I'm not familiar with the show, but don't they usually play two songs?)

I don't think allaccess ever even had a link for "Petrified" either, because I don't think it ever went for adds on any format.
Edit..there's a Petrified link on the alternative page, mms://66.186.0.101/allaccess/fortpetr.wma

Well guess what...they've passed it to slightly re-release "Remember The Name" coming up real soon. But the label (or reps) have said that "Believe Me" will follow RTN.
