Rap = LETS HAVE SEX ALL DAY LONG SEX SEX SEX, CURSE CURSE CURSE, FUCK FUCK FUCK, KILL EVERYBODY DIE DIE DIE
Rock = Real issues relating to REAL people...not everybody is in the hood

Robert Plant singing about his cock and Valhalla relates to everyday people?Bon/Brian Johnston singing about thunder......and his cock?The rock songs that sing about "rock"?

.......most rock lyrics are just as empty,just that rappers are more blunt.

Real people don't live in ghettos,I'm well aware of that.

It's MUCH easier to find a rock song with meaningful lyrics than it is to find a rap song that even comes close to it.

You're mainly referring to older rock.. classic rock and such. Listen to bands like Smile Empty Soul, Evanescence, Nightwish... I'm sure you'll find that the lyrics are a hell of a lot more meaningful than such rubbish as "This is how we do" or "Don't fuck wit me I'm from da hood!"

all rap is about sex drugs and murder and money (thanks XXvickiXX)
all rock is about the singers' sexual fantasies and bullshit erotic non-sequiturs
all jazz is pretentious unlistenable shit
all metal is about devil-worshipping but you wouldnt know it because nobody understands the lyrics
all punk/hardcore is limited to two chords, four notes, one time signature and one voice (whiny screechy yelling)
all electronic is made by nazis and only marios and mr slicks listen to it
all ska is like simplistic jazz, still unlistenable still but even more untalented
all emo is pathetic whiny and obscure shit it would be better if it was called 'suicide rock' and lived up to its namesake instead of merely threatening to

add your own uneducated generalisations as you think of them

Rap doesn't even come close to rock. I really dislike most rap music, mainly because I find it to be very stupid and pointless. It seems like every song is about the same things: women, sex, drugs, and money. It gets rather annoying after about 2 minutes. Rock actually has some thought put into it.. you know, emotions. I think that almost anyone could be a rapper if they wanted to. I only like a few rap songs, and I like them because of the beat, definitely not the lyrics. People can actually relate to rock, unlike most rap. I'm also really sick of the arrogance that rappers show. All they talk about is how much money they have and how many records they've sold. Rock is just better, plain and simple.
