"When the Fort Minor record was being made Mike only wanted to work with his personal friends because he didn't want any big hip hop names to collaborate with so that the album would sell."

I saw him saying in a interview that he felt sad about the fact that Jay-Z didnt have time to spit a verse for his record.

"So Mike was basicly doing hip hop music before Linkin Park evan took off."

That doesnt make him a good Mc. I agree that he is a good producer, and that he's able to make some good records, and I also think that he realy is Hip Hop. But he's not a such a good Mc. His flow often sounds forced. He's not bad, but nothing special. Some other guys of his group, Styles Of Beyond, are way better Mc's.
