Talk:Rapcore

message: Okay, so looking over this article, I read something that went something like this:
"some bands in this genre are known for rapping in their songs, such as Linkin Park and Limp Bizkit".
Wait...if we are calling this RAPcore, shouldn't ALL BANDS be known for using RAP vocals? It's ridiculuos to say something is rapcore if the band doesn't even rap.
As for Linkin Park being rapcore...how? Oh, sure, some say that Chester sounds like a hardcore vocalist at times, but other than that, I have yet to see one source [By the way, the source that labels Linkin Park as Rapcore is an article in RAP-METAL] call them Rapcore.

thread_title:  This needs serious editing...NOW! 

message: Okay, I have heard of rap metal and rap rock, but never rapcore or rap-punk.  And with it's bare mention in society anywhere (with the exception of the hardcore kids who seems to make anything with "core" in it popular), why should it be here?  And no, Rapcore is not Rap metal, rap rock, and rap punk combined into one genre.  It's a stupid idea.
And Anthrax?  You mention anthrax as Rapcore?  Rap Metal with "Bring the Noise" (which they had to add Public Enemy temporarily), but Heavy Metal usually (they did one song Rap Metal, that does not mean they "pioneered" Rap Metal [or in this case "rapcore"]).
All I'm saying is that there is no point in having this article.  Every band who seems to be rapcore can already be defined under another genre perfectly fine.

thread_title: Rapcore???  Are you serious??

message: = would rapcore be part of metalcore, since metalcore is a mixture of heavy metal and hardcore punk, while rapcore is a mixture of heavy metal, rap, and hardcore punk
why was no info merged from the rap rock and rap metal articles before they were redirected to this page? i'll work on this when i get some time, if someone doesn't do it before (revisions of both articles prior to the redirect; , ) --MilkMiruku 11:58, 17 February 2006 (UTC)

thread_title:  Punk rap? 

message: I'm not quite sure that rapcore should be considered a subgenre of heavy metal. While nu-metal, I agree, is a subgenre of heavy metal, I consider rapcore to be much more a fusion of punk and rap. Alot of nu-metal artists have metal overtones to their music, most rapcore artists do not.

thread_title: Heavy Metal?

message: "Rapcore" literally translates to "hardcore punk with rapped vocals". This isn't always the case with rapcore bands, but it can be seen in the name as well as in bands such as Rage Against The Machine and Kid Rock.
This is not a "translation", let alone "literal". A translation is from one language to another, and literal is word for word, such as "¿Cómo estas?" becomming "How [you are]?". Also, this was in a "trivia" section which provides no value to the article.

thread_title:  rapcore? 

message: Rap rock quotes Ambrose in The Violent World of Moshpit Culture as stating that rapcore originated from rap rock and fuses hardcore punk with hip hop. Several other sources refer to rapcore as originating from punk and rap rock. There's no evidence that rapcore originated from rap metal. The two genres are completely separate. Sources indicate that rap metal originates from heavy metal, while rapcore originates from punk. (Ibaranoff24 (talk) 18:10, 5 April 2009 (UTC)

message: Anyone would think this was an article about Nu Metal.
The term "nu metal" was first used for a review of a mid-October 1995 Coal Chamber concert in Spin magazine in the form "new metal". Nu Metal emerged in the mid-1990s and combines grunge music, alternative metal, funk metal, hip hop, and various other heavy metal influences such as industrial, groove and thrash.
Nu metal bands often feature aggressive vocals that range from melodic or emotional singing similar to pop and rock, guttural screaming and shouting from various forms of metal or hardcore punk, and like funk metal; rapping is often used.
Saying rap rock & rapcore were the basis for Nu Metal is wrong.  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 77.96.252.34 (talk) 14:01, 3 August 2009 (UTC)

thread_title:  rap punk 

message: Adding some information about rap metal into this page about rapcore makes sense as there is a lot of over-lap and similarities between to two genres, however rap metal, unlike nu metal and crunkcore, doesn't have anything directly related to rapcore(or fusions of hardcore/punk and rap) so too much information about rap metal, is un-needed, I agree some is needed as they share similar history and bands like Biohazard can be considered as both, nevertheless there is still too much information about rap metal in this article about rapcore.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 84.13.81.109 (talk) 21:39, 31 May 2013 (UTC)
