ROCK VS. RAP, Which do you think is better and why? Options

[aforce65]

I personally like rap, i like it because it has more of rhytmetic beat to its better than all that loud rock, i mean alternative rock is ok, but i think rap is better, it brings out the gangster in everyone

[dahding]

both are good. depends on who raps or rocks out loud.

let's see...

rap. even tho it's not as let's say "musical" as rock because they don't include as much instrumentals such as drums/guitars, the lyrics are hardcore and very meaningful. it's got the beat behind it that drives it forward and depending on the song, it can range from "good god shoot the stereo" to "crank that shit up."

rock. some bands are just O___o;. some bands are awesome and u can't help but just love them. different bands appeal to different people. depends on the song too. some just make u feel mellow and u just feel like spacing out or getting high and chilling out. some songs just have the awesome rock hard drive behind it that makes u wanna rock out loud and just join a mosh pit.

different music for different people. s'all good.

haha lmao

I listen to rap more often than rock but you can find quality music and terrible music in both genres. However I really enjoy to see the both genres fused together hybrid style like "Jay Z & Linkin Park", "Gorillaz", and "RUN DMC and Aerosmith".

This however does not change my opinion on which genre I think is better. I don't judge a song by the genre, rather I judge a song on whether its good or not.

I guess I like rap better since I listen to it more. LOL
