a combination/crossover between both metal and rap. most of the time this means that the same riff will repeat constantly in the song without much variation. its composition is made up of rap lyrics over the metal instrumental.

A genre of music that calls itself metal but isn't.
It supposedly "combines rap and rock," and does so simply by taking away all of the elements that make either genre the least bit interesting.

Dont just flame when youve never heard it. Sure some rap metal is terrible, but some can be allright. I myself like many different genres of metal(except numetal such as slipknot linkin park and limp bizkit) so rapcore is one of them. In short its hardcore rock or metal with rapping
