Teletubby 136,681 Posted September 9, 2024 Share Posted September 9, 2024 Jaime Bennington, the son of late Linkin Park lead singer Chester Bennington, has criticized the band’s decision to bring in Emily Armstrong as their new vocalist. Armstrong, who co-founded the rock band Dead Sara, made her Linkin Park debut in a live performance Sept. 5 alongside new drummer Colin Brittain. Jaime voiced his disapproval via Instagram on Monday, writing in a Story post that Linkin Park co-founder Mike Shinoda had “quietly erased my father’s life and legacy in real time… during international suicide prevention month.” He authored multiple, lengthy paragraphs that highlighted Armstrong’s past, referencing her ties with the Church of Scientology as well as her support of Danny Masterson, who was convicted of raping two women and sentenced to 30 years to life in prison in 2023. Jaime added that Linkin Park has “failed to address the concerns of their diverse fan base” and that the music group’s recent actions “are not something people should acclimate to.” He added that the band had “betrayed the trust” of the fanbase who “trusted you to be the bigger better person. To be the change. Because you promised us that was your intention.” He concluded, “Now you’re just senile and tone deaf.” https://variety.com/2024/music/news/chester-bennington-son-slams-linkin-park-emily-armstrong-1236138222/ "A rat is a rat" 1 4 3 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

RAMROD 104,735 Posted September 10, 2024 Share Posted September 10, 2024 Well, it's sad it have to be this way. I guess Mike just feel that he have more right to the name since he founded it in the first place.
