A cappella 

"A capella" definition is wrong. Not usually used by rappers, but rather by people that actually...sing (and sing well) without instrumental accompaniment. Please see

http://www.singers.com/a-cappella.html

...for more enlightenment on what a cappella is.

"Hey guys, let's sing real a cappella, with no instrumental accompaniment. And better yet, let's actually sing and use musical notes in our music and not chant simple rhymes and curse words in a monotone like the music artist b rabbit does in 8 Mile!"

"Sounds great! Wait, b rabbit is a music artist? Since when?"

a cappella group 

A group of bros that like to sing together and perform music a cappella, sometimes including dancing; "Pepperdine Pickups". Synonymous with all that is good in the world.

I can't wait for the next Pickups concert, bro- I love a great "a cappella group"!

When will the Pickups finally release an album? I've been waiting way too long for a new "a cappella group" this good.

Collegiate A Cappella 

Music done by college students involving only voices and no instruments. Usually sounds stupid and worse than the original hits because the performers are drunk and care more about getting laid. There are some good groups, but mostly just a soloist sucking and the rest of the group going "doo-doo."

Kayne West: Yo Off the Beat, I'm really happy for you guys, and I'm gonna let you finish, but the original artists had better versions of the songs you covered.
