Aren't rap and country kind of the same?

Question

I listen to them both and I noticed that both rap and country tell stories about life and life experiences.

Answer 1

I agree with you, though country and rap have their differences, the two are generally the same. Both of the genres exploit women, some examples would be Honky Tonk Badonkadonk by Trace Adkins and the Thong Song Sisqo. Both country and rap tell stories about life experiences, some examples would be Awful Beautiful Life by Daryl Worley and Changes by 2PAC. They both talk about politics, some examples would be Courtesy Of The Red, White, And Blue by Toby Keith and Mosh by Eminem. I find it very interesting that you would compare the two.

Answer 2

Well, so does folk. but rap has(as of recently) gone for the worst. 90's rap is by far the best(the roots, Wu-tang, nwa, blackstar ect.) but country is almost always sad and rap is fun, lost love and love songs, gangsta, or just dumb-bigbear

PS not all rap is crap

Answer 3

in order that that you recognize, the way you form is amazingly demanding. besides, mine is rock/metal, ideally experimental stuff like Dir En gray. i love business too, like senseless self indulgence. i am going to face some rap, like lil wayne, eminem, asher roth. i appreciate Miyavi, who's a jap guitarist/singer. he's really reliable, and contains hip hop into a number of his songs. i love woman gaga. errr, yeah. i do not favor to form anymore, so thats about it.

Answer 4

I think it's interesting that you would compare the two, the music itself is so completely different, but it's like you don't even notice that portion of the it. Just the words, the stories, etc. Strange.

Answer 5

Yes Yes because there is story telling, both have some lyrics with cursing, both have drinking and women in the lyrics, and both like to sit their vechiles and shoot something or someone.

Answer 6

i guess, but not all rap songs are about life and stuff neither are all country songs like not all Eminem songs are about life some are just funny, and there are also political songs and just kinda random funny songs

Answer 7

no. and if you think it is then gurl get your ears checked cuz there somethin wrong wit you. ok. Country sucks, but Rap is da best so dont hate!

Answer 8

They have similarities but are not exactly the same and for the record not all rap is about sex hoes and drug.

Answer 9

NO...Most rap has no meaning. They talk about grillz, and bling. There are a handful of rappers that are positive but most stink.

Answer 10

yep it iz
but the only difference is the words used(eg**** lol) and the speed at witch the song is sung at
