What in your opinion is the difference between rap and hiphop?Rap to me is stories told... lines with matching meter, rhyme, and bunches of elements of poetry.Hiphop is pretty much everything else. Songs that are made to make money and make people dance. Most people dont know the lyrics to "hiphop" because they are just grooving to the beat and could give a hell what the "artist" is saying except for the hook.For example NY state of mind by Nas has no hook, he just goes and goes.... main stream stuff on the radio plays the hook millions of times over and over... it require way less skill and effort to create hiphop as it does rap. IMO.</blockquote>
