Is rap the same as hip hop?

Answer 1

pretty much so. Someone should correct me if I'm wrong, but sometimes people use hip hop to refer more to the music aspect of the art, like songs where people are rapping, and rap as the general term for spoken rhyming verses. For example, there are a lot of rap battles out there where people spit verses with no instrumental, and that makes it pure rap and not as much hip hop.. but honestly the words are usually used interchangeably.

Answer 2

hip hop and rap are not the same, hip is a cutlure that consist of 4 element djing, breaking, mcing, graffiti, hip hop protects builds and educate the fondation in which it was build "urban communities/the ghetto" hip is some you live and love it the base of who you are. where as rap is just muisc with no mean other than to make money its a small piece of the mc element that was taken by coroprate commerical label excutives and it glorfies the negative part of the hip hip culture.
