hip hop tends to be more cohesive, whereas most rap
exploited soley for commercial purposes

hip hop seems to be more about the instrumentation, IMO.

that makes no sense at all and i do hope you're kidding.
tolstoyed is right.

hiphop is the lifestyle/culture which is based on 4
elements, being:

- rap/mc-ing
- dj-ing
- breakdance
- graffiti

hiphop - music, style, culture

rap - singing manner

the difference between hip hop and rap is..
hip hop is the genre, or culture rather, and 'rap' is the
vocal style which is most used in the genre.. of course you
can have hip hop without rap, hip hop isnt just limited to
music, it encompasses graffiti art and breakdancing as well

some people seem to think that they are two separate
things..that 'rap' is the commercial version of hip hop or
something.. which isnt true.. yes, commercial hip hop
usually has rapping, because instrumental hip hop isnt
really made for the pop market

exactly. hip-hop is a way of life inclusive of "rap music,"
rapping is a vocal style.

rap music is just a part of hip-hop... hip-hop is the big
thing, rap is just one aspect of it...

now i'm confused. i've always thought rap was pop with r&b &
gangsta elements

rap means 'talk', i.e. the vocal part of a track.

hip-hop means stolen drumloop conjuring a rundown area of
new york. or something.

hip-hop contains graffiti, breakdance, rap, dj-ing,
lifestyle.. [map]
eurodance contains rap, dj-ing, lifestyle, and some girl
singing after the MCs tired.
I've heard there are some beats to, but I think they're
boring and can be ignored, just like in most cases of
hiphop.

wow this thread is so informative by now. it just helps so
much when people repeat things that were said already a few
dozen times.

people are so eager to make it obvious that they know stuff
so they reply without looking at the rest of the thread.
