Why compaire 2 such different styles?

For me it's no choice, only Rock has to do with music. Rap is just people talking dirty very fast. They often try to hide that by using babes with angelvoices and samples of old hits. But they ain't fooling me. Everyone can rap, it's nothing special.

Is Rap older than Rock? Is Rap just a new name for an old form of 'music' that preceded Rock?

Talking Blues is a song form that can trace its surface roots to a recording by the Greenville Trio in April of 1926. Its lineage goes much deeper — to spirituals — and an odd combination of the religious and the profane. The talking blues have served as a vehicle for social commentary for Woodie Guthrie, Bob Dylan, and hundreds of others. Musician and researcher Stephen Wade — creator of the stage show, Banjo Dancing, and a contributor to numerous folklore journals.

I guess you mean more special than ©rap?

I'm actually an old school rocker, Deep Purple/Mothers Finest/Iron Maiden/ACDC kinda rock.
But even nowadays there are still good bands, Dave Matthews/ Porcupine tree/Pearl Jam.

What makes Rock special?
Well good rock is really timeless music. It doesn't age. If i listen to Yes or AC DC it could have been a brand new band. It is like hearing Mozart! I doubt that 20 years from now someone will play snoop dogg/ Notorius B/eminem or whoever because it is so good, so timeless

Classic Rock is my listening choice. I don't mind the older Rap but the new one have too many f**k words and sound cheap;ie 50 cents
