Rock was the gateway to Rap. If it wasn't for aerosmith, rap wouldn't of been as popular as it is today. Well...that is comming from music critics. In the song Walk This Way by Aerosmith/Run DMC when Aerosmith smashes the wall between them in the video...critics say this is when Rap finally hit it big, and that video basically symbolizes that rock let rap in. I like rock better than rap, probably because I live in a small town where everybody listens to rock, but I enjoy hip hop. All mainstream shit is gay, Gay Unit and all are just terrible. I listen to stuff like...Sage Francis, Atmosphere, Slug, Necro, Tonedeff...etc. I unno...

^ says the small-minded individual that probably believes only white people listen to rock...

anyway...as was said above, it's about preference, not which is better or worse...Linkin Park is da shit, if you listen to their lyrics, they talk about some deep shit, they REAL as HELL and you can't deny that whether you like their "music" or not they're great lyricists...Evanescence iz dat shyt too...I'm into peeps like that...Maroon 5 is muh shyt too man...I love all kinds of music and don't really limit myself to a genre cuz well, the bottom line pretty much is that GOOD MUSIC IS GOOD MUSIC...

^ you'll never make great music if you're that one-sided and don't listen to anything but one genre..a great artist/musician appreciates all types of music, not just one...you'll never reach your fullest potential limitting yourself like that...open your mind to different things...only kinda music I don't listen to is country music and things like it, and hard rock shit like Korn and NIN..like I said, you'll never be great at what you do until you have an appreciation for what someone else does, though it's different from what YOU do...

well, both have their highlights....people nowadays tend to generalize rock into the category of "heavy metal", where the singer gets on the mic and screams with no indication of lyrics at all......but if you are a musician, alot of that shit has some very unique guitaring, drums, whatever.....every kind of music has some good points......im not into "heavy" shit, but i do enjoy rock better.....mainly because i listen to more of the oldies now, like hendrix, trooper, springsteen, aerosmith (just to name a few)....70's 80's stuff, but i do feel that some rap is enjoyable to listen to, just not the shit where you gotta swear more times than actual lyrics or talking about gettin 'fucked up' on some shit and banging hoes the whole time, shit gets boring, some of it is cool, but alot of it is the same shit being said, but with different beats......but like i said, i find rock to be better, but thats just an opinion and what i've grown accustomed to, but i listen to pretty much everything.............the people who say one type is greater than the other, though, are idiots.......i think
