| | Country and rap dominate 25 top albums of the year |
 | | The dominance of country and rap on the charts could be seen partly as a reaction to consumers being spoon-fed manufactured boy bands for years. | | | Although it could be argued that much of what passes for country is virtually indistinguishable from generic pop, country music still represents a more specific aesthetic, national identity and, at least in today's music, upwardly mobile lifestyle than other forms of manufactured pop. | | | Genre: Coming-of-Age Pop R&B. Take: A little bit of Lauryn Hill, a little bit of TLC and, for listeners with attention-deficit disorder, one-word song titles and an introduction that samples songs on which she has sung in the past. |

| | Beastie Boys - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia |
| | In the UK, alleged insults supposedly aimed at leukemia victims almost resulted in the band being kicked out of the country, although the Beastie Boys maintain that the incident was a beat up of the band politely declining to sign an autograph. | | | Licensed to Ill was the first rap album to reach #1 on the Billboard 200 charts, and together with the success of Run-DMC's Raising Hell album in 1986, marked a breakthrough for rap music. | | | Their rock and punk influenced rap has influenced artists both in and outside of the hip-hop scene, as illustrated by music channel VH1's list of greatest hip hop artists, where the Beastie Boys are ranked in eleventh place. |

| | SOHH.com Global Forum - Korea's rap 'n' roll phenomenon |
| | Try to dismiss K-pop as K-rap, though, and you overlook the most remarkable aspect of the phenomenon, the fast-spreading popularity of this pop form to China, the communist giant that seems to welcome the invasion as long as it is pop, and not political. | | | Maybe, he says, that's because Koreans are so mesmerized by the formulaic numbers blaring from the country's four music TV channels that they have yet to consider them as an overall phenomenon deserving of a label reflecting the country of origin. | | | Unlike the anodyne messages of the rap that is chanted by the major bands, including "Drunken Tiger," they shout out words of rebellion against traditional society. |

| | Death Row Records, the record label that brought gangsta rap from the streets of Compton in South Central L.A. into record stores across the country, has been put on the shelves of history by its founder and CEO Marion Hugh Suge Knight. | | | Gangsta rap is a reflection of the poverty and violence of inner-city life. | | | Up until that time gangsta rap had been primarily a local music scene in Los Angeles, where artists were under the control of white owned record labels. |

| | Rock Music |
| | Though gangsta rap and alternative rock are popularly viewed as divergent (based primarily on the population of artists), there is much cross-over in their audiences (which would be a rarity with rap and country). | | | Because to rap means to talk, gangsta rap songs are generally more lyrically dense than sadrock songs. | | | Manifest in gangsta rap and sadrock are expressions of angst and apathy. |

| | Library Journal - The Rap on Hip Hop |
| | Strictly defined, the term refers to the entire cultural constellation that accompanies rap music, which in 2001 surpassed country music as the most popular musical genre in the United States. | | | These days, rap music can be made by anyone with home studio software and a computer, but in its purest form, it springs from a mic controller (MC), who rhymes verses over a beat most often supplied by a DJ, who manipulates records on turntables. | | | Arguably the definitive work on the world of the professional hip-hop DJ, this documentary ranges from the birth of rap, when pioneers began 'scratching' vinyl on primitive equipment, through the current introduction of sophisticated digital sampling techniques; features interviews with, and performances and lessons by, Qbert and Mix Master Mike (of the Beastie Boys). |
