Difference between Rap and Hiphop
« on: June 16, 2004, 01:14:43 PM »
is there a difference between those two words? or are they just two terms for the same thing? and what's the point of making up two words?

Rap is a part of HipHop.
Rap is music and HipHop is a lifestyle.
Don't forget about Dj-ing, Graffity or Breakdancing. They all belong the HipHop as well as MC-ing.
Some evil tongues also say Rap is ruining HipHop because ppl more and more think Rap=HipHop and therefore forget about what it's really meant to be.
Oh well.

7even hit the nail on the head.  

People on award shows are stupid...

Just like when they announce D12 as 'D12 with Eminem'
