I'm waiting on the bus to go to school and there's a viacom ad at the bus stop. Then another one on the bus. I say whatever and get on the bus and someone has on the raido. There's an ad for MTV's 'Ther Real World' on. At school, kids are pouring out god awfrl music and pretend to be rock stars/rapers. They all look like Britany Spears, Avril, Jay Z, or whatever Viacom channels tell them is cool. I go home and flip thru CBS, MTV, Nickelodeon, VH1, BET, UPN, TV Land, Comedy Central, Spike TV, Showtime. I settle on Fuse cuz Viacom don't own them.

Get the Viacom mug.A great band. The band has long since broken up. It's lead singer, Chester Bennington, joined the band Linkin Park (another great band, IMO). Another member, whose name I forget, has passed away.
The sound is nothing like Linkin Park's music, so don't expect that. Its very soft and slow. No rap elements at all.
Some Grey Daze songs, like 'Broken Glas', are said to be early Linkin Park stuff. This is not true at all. The only thing linking Grey Daze and LP is Chester's singing. And the singing styles are entirely different as well.

Get the Yellow Rat Bastard mug.Rap rock is a hybrid of rap and rock music.
You can usually find traditional instruments of rock like guitars, bass guitars, and drums. Vocals can be sung, rapped or both. You may also see electronic sampling equipment, scratch pads and a DJ.
Now here's the part that some kiddies can't seem to get right: Rap rock is a broad definition for the hybrid genre. Nu metal and rapcore are just specific examples of rap rock.
Nu metal tends to be heavier, harder music with electronic elements, it leans more towards metal (hence the name). Bands such as Slipknot, KoRn, and Godsmack fall into this category.
Rapcore is more of a hybrid between rap and hardcore punk (instead of metal). Bands like House of Pain, Limp Bizkit, Linkin Park, Rage Against the Machine and some of the works of KoRn are good examples of this genre.

Rap rock is a genre of music in which labels can get a bit messy because people often think of Rap rock as being another name for Nu metal or Rapcore.

Get the Rap rock mug.Contrary to popular beleif, reggaeton is NOT spanish reggae. It is spanish RAP with reggae/dancehall beats. Sometimes the rapping is spanglish, spanish with some english thrown in here and there.
This music style is growing in popularity with artits like Daddy Yankee (who is leading the genre right now), Noriega, Don Omar and Luny Toons.

Take a good listen to how a person in a reggae song speaks, then do the same to a reggaeton song, then a rap song. You'll find that a regaeton song has a reggae beat with rapping.
Popular reggaeton songs include:
-Gasolina
-Dale Don Dale
-Oye Mi Canto
-Rompe

Get the Reggaeton mug.The City refers to Manhattan OR the five boroughs. If you live in the boroughs, then 'The City' is definately Manhattan. Outside of the boroughs, it can mean the boroughs as a whole or just Manhattan.
Remember: New York City isn't just Manhatten, it's the whole five boroughs (Brooklyn, The Bronx, Queens, Staten Island and Manhattan).
