Note:

Debuts:

• This is the first time that Mike rapped any form of Dedicated "live". The first time he did it at a Linkin Park show did not come until August 2009 in Taipei, Taiwan.

Other Notes:

• Mike and Rakaa from the Dilated Peoples went on The Wake Up Show to give interviews and rap. The DJ asked Mike to do a battle with Rakaa and Mike rapped verses 1 and 2 of Dedicated and part of an unreleased song. On the Fort Minor forums in 2005, Mike said it was from a verse he had written "years ago", which might refer to even pre-Xero. He also posted the lyrics:
  • Me and Rakka haven't begun to hit you yet
  • when i get you open / your insides will make you wet
  • you bet / hostile when i'm rapping to you
  • got you asking God how he let this happen to you
  • bringing on the fat lady / and the fat man too
  • and shoot em both out of a cannon over Kathmandu
  • if ya sleepin / i'm knocking out the sandman too
  • i'll beat the yellow out of you until you're black and blue
  • laugh at you / and any MC who wants to scuffle
  • turn a Challenger emcee into Challenger space shuttle
  • got Emcees so mixed-up, their bones are pulling muscles
  • And their bladders are leaking out and down their leg into a puddle
  • what's that / laying you flat survival tatic-ly
  • you wanna battle me you better start thinkin practicly
  • line after line casually rapping this rapidly
  • and ending this / you never get a chance to bust back at me
