Can we all agree that there is a distinction between Hip Hop and Rap? 
Hip hop is the entire culture. 
Language clothes R and B. Funk/soul Rock and and yes wait for it... Rap! 
which seems to get a fair amount of its samples/beats from Led Zepplin and 
Areosmith
 
I find the great majority of people dismiss anything identifying itself with 
the term Hip Hop 
What A Shame! imo

Can I record mend N.E.R.D/Neptunes 
and Pharrel in particular
for they are truly mixing it up 
playing with live alt rock looking band members 
really doing inventive things 
They have a ROCK BAND vibe 
check them out!

Music is about inclusion

Np Frontin' Pharrell        What a great Song!
