This is one of the trickier questions I've tried to answer!. It seems every time we're about to arrive at an easy explanation someone throws in a different opinion!. Some maintain that rap is a kind of music, whereas hip-hop is a lifestyle — one that includes rap, break dancing, DJing, and graffiti art!. Rap pioneer and sage KRS-One says simply, "Rap is something you do, but hip-hop is something you live!."
Others, however, insist that hip-hop is a musical style distinct from rap, for very specific reasons: mainly hip-hop has a particular beat and uses scratching and "breaks" (samples)!. They claim rapping over a soul or heavy metal track could never be hip-hop!. In other words, these folks say all hip-hop is rap, but not all rap is hip-hop!.
Unfortunately for us label-hungry knowledge junkies looking for a quick fix, we'll never arrive at a firm answer!. Designations such as "rap" and "hip-hop" are never set in stone, but are free to flow and evolve, kind of like the songs themselves!. Of course, some hip-hoppers just enjoy the scene and leave it at that!. In the words of the ever-eloquent Biggie Smalls: "Birthdays was the worst days!. Now we sip champagne when we thirst-ay!."

I will be honest and say that I don't really know much of a difference between Rap and Hip Hop!. I do have some idea, but I don't really know any Rap or Hip Hop artists to back up my answer!. I don't hate Rap or Hip Hop!. It just needs to have meaniful lyrics for me to like the genre!. There are a lot of rappers these days that don't have meaniful lyrics in their songs!.
So let me ask you a question!. I was being honest to you, now can you be honest to me!. Do you know what the difference between Rock and Metal is!? Don't say that Metal just has screaming in it, it doesn't!. If you don't believe me, then look up some good Power Metal bands!.Www@Enter-QA@Com

Rap is more about the beats and hip-hop is more about the lyrical delivery!.
To be honest, I could never learn the difference!. I'm probably wrong!.Www@Enter-QA@Com

Rap focuses more upon the rhyming element where as Hip Hop tends to incorporate more pop & a dance element such as Breakdance and various forms of street danceWww@Enter-QA@Com
