Linkin Park

During the 2012 Rio+Social event, Linkin Park showcased their iconic song "Numb," which was part of their groundbreaking 2000 debut album, "Hybrid Theory." By 2012, the band was experiencing a significant evolution in their sound and artistic approach, having just released their fifth studio album, "Living Things," only weeks prior. This live performance captured their energy and connection with fans, blending their nu-metal roots with electronic influences. Interestingly, "Numb" has become one of their signature tracks and is often seen as an anthem for those grappling with feelings of inadequacy. The choice to perform at a conference focused on social change highlights Linkin Park's commitment to addressing deeper issues beyond just music, engaging with their audience on an emotional and social level.
