Linkin Park didn’t work with many rappers like that, but the one and only JAY-Z did a whole remix album with the group at one point in their careers (see: Collision Course). With the untimely passing of Chester Bennington, Hov decided to pay tribute to the frontman at the V Festival in the UK by performing some classics.
As you can see below, Jay played “Numb (Encore)” to close out the show, asking the crowd to sing so he could hear them in heaven.
