Why when rock bands incorperate rap into their music it's still considered rock?

Well that's all left up to your perception.....

Rap/Rock communities: Hollywood Undead Linkin Park Rage against The device Korn (specifically situations) Limp Bizkit Anthrax Beastie Boys 311 P.O.D RUN DMC Bands/Musicians that conceal songs properly: Lenny Kravitz Scott Weiland Godsmack Chris Cornell (covers John Lennon, Led Zeppelin, etc.) Scott Weiland/Stone Temple Pilots great White (acceptable band that does covers in historic past IMO) Creedence Clearwater Revival crimson warm Chili Peppers

Because the instrumentation is still the same..

Bulls on parade have a very heavy funk metal instrumentation with manic drums and distorted/overdriven guitars and heavy heavy bass.

As for gangsters and thugs.. its not actually a rock song.

Tim armstrong himself said its a drum and bass inspired song.. It is considered a rock song possible because Tim and travis are both ROCK music orientated.

Its more so called alternative rock or alternative rap...if two genres are mixed...thats makes it a lot easier...because they have many subnames for this type of style...example trip hop, horror core rap, emo, nu metal...etc..smh

Because some people would actually hate to just admit that music is music....and if you fuse some genre's it might provide SOME cohesion between two different music groups..........

I think it goes by the band's dominant genre. EVERYONE is classified now, it just depends on what genre or subgenre they "fit" into....

im with y u wana playa hate

people are just stupid like that

I find nothing wrong with blurring lines....

I think Paula right

coz rock is more dominant:

Nu Metal

Rapcore

Funk
