"Lee Interlude" was a live show interlude performed by Linkin Park during the Hybrid Theory touring cycle in 2001. The interlude first appeared on setlists as "Dialog: #31" in early January 2001 before it became "Lee Interlude" on the Street Soldiers Tour.
Background
The voiceover/sampled talking on the "Lee Interlude" is done by Frank "Lee" Cadena, the creator of Urban Network's Rapology series. Part of the same speech was sampled on the remake of "High Voltage" performed by Linkin Park in 2001.[1] Mike said, "He was the voice on the phone on High Voltage. Lee.... Joe actually worked for Lee for a while. There was a hip hop industry magazine called Urban Network and Lee was like the boss over there and Joe worked for Lee. Shout out to Lee. I haven't seen that guy in like forever."[2]
Lee Cadena died at his home on July 16, 2018 due to kidney failure. He was 55.[3]
Live
"Papercut" has been a staple in Linkin Park setlists since 2000 as it is one of the band's favorite songs. Throughout the first half of 2000, it served as the opening song, after a shortened version of "Cure For The Itch". After "A Place For My Head" took over as the show opener for the latter half of the year it moved down to a mid-set position. In 2001, the band added an interlude before the song, entitled the "LEE Interlude", which was performed until the George, Washington show of Ozzfest. At the show in East Troy, Wisconsin, "With You" was preceded by the "LEE Interlude" for the only time. At the band's late night performance at Rock im Park, "Points Of Authority" had some extensions added on to it: before the song, the "LEE Interlude" was performed - instead of coming before "Papercut". Mike also performed an extended beatbox intro before the song.
Lyrics
And like the rock and rap, you know what I mean?
People act like, you know, wow, that’s a new invention.
That shit ain’t new.
They always gotta try to put a label on it so they could package it, water it down, and sell that shit for their own purpose.
They can’t deal with something that doesn't have a label to it.
We’re constantly evolving, shit is constantly changing, man, we’re talking about change, you know what I mean?
Yo, focus, that’s what I’m talking about, focus, and what you focusing on, you’re focusing on a hybrid, man, because that’s what it’s all about (-bout, -bout)
