I prefer rock, but I like rap. As it's been said, neither one is better than the other. But, think about this: Both genres have similar themes if you really listen to the lyrics. Isolation, hate, pain, sex... Rap and rock may sound different, but they're the same in spirit. [/b][/quote] If you're talking about the Rap you hear on the radio and the rap you se on TV then I really don't agree that Rap and Rock are "the same in spirit". :wth:

Rock, definitely... I don't listen to straight hip-hop and rap cuz I don't like it... But I like the mesh between rap and rock (LOL )... My favorite styles of music are new rock/alternative, new/thrash/gothic metal, grunge, emo, hardcore, industrial and punk/punk rock... I also listen to some pop and some electro rock... But I can't stand death and black metal...
