Are you tired of this old "metal versus hip-hop" argument? Musical communitarianism has always annoyed me, as if loving one prevented you from liking the other and vice-versa. I never understood what the big deal was.
So today the ditch is gone, and what's better than two hot dudes to bury the hatchet?
And to break the stereotypes a bit more, there's also a bearish version. Yes these two were real clichés...
... and I feel the need to remind us despite the lack of visibility there are a lot of people of color in metal and they are underrepresented.
(I can personally recommend, among maaany others,
Leng Tche', a Belgian death-grind band with a very charismatic singer who sure knows how to heat a crowd ~saw him live, he's awesome!~, the famous
Orphaned Land from Israel, or the powerful
Brujeria psychos from Mexico.)
So let's stop this neverending war and when we are asked which is better between rock/metal and rap/hip-hop, let's just remember that...
