Rap music is more of a morden/evolution of Hip Hop music. Rap is more Pop than anything else. It's those songs and videos that you hear on T.V that are #1 on billboard all the time. A typical rap song is either about money, power, respect, women and occasionally "love". Where as Hip Hop music (R.I.P 1980 - 1992) was more of a cultural statement which the black people of that generation used to speak about the diversity and things that were happening in the world at that time. But that's not really a major difference. A noticable difference would be: In the 1980s the music of the songs that were played had a similar beat. You'll notice that two or three Artists or mabye the same Artist had a similar beat to a song you may of heard before. Where's today there're alot of creative beats and samples that varies from Artist to Artist. But Artists from both Hip Hop and Rap music have always sampled a beat from a hit song of the past.Hip Hop music is a re-generation of Reggae music.
