Historically, rap music comes from hip-hop culture. The roots of rap music trace back to the Jamaican ska era of the mid-60s. MCs rapping over party music made its way to New York a decade later, thanks to DJ Kool Herc, a man many crown the "Father of Hip Hop." Kool Herc emigrated from Jamaica to New York in 1967 and helped give birth to the hip-hop culture that would continue to thrive and spread.
The Hip Hop Network notes that while the Sugar Hill Gang's 1979 Rapper's Delight was the first breakthrough rap hit, it emerged from a "an inner-city phenomenon centering on DJs and including equal proportions of break dancing, MCing, and graffiti art.
More recently, "rap" has been used to describe the aggressive, mass-market produced music of Nas or Eminem. But, Not all music that has rapping in it, however, is actually rap music, and not all hip-hop music has rapping in it. Artists like Jurassic 5 and De La Soul typify hip-hop music, which is generally more multi-instrumented and less in-your-face.

Hip hop music (also referred to as rap or rap music) is a style of popular music. It is made up of two main components: rapping (MCing) and DJing (audio mixing and scratching).

Rap was pure, about anger and tough times, and getting drunk and high - hip hop is newer and is about "rentin jewels for your video and frontin' with that style"

hip-hop is anything fast where you can 'break dance' to it...rap is where most of the artists are 'talking'....
