"Rap is something you do. Hip-Hop is something you live." - KRS-One.

My view (which I find is generally shared among people involved with the "scene") is that Rap is a music genre, while "Hip-Hop" by itself refers to the culture.
"Hip-Hop music" would refer to any music created in said culture, whether it's rap, turntablism, or whatever.

Whenever people say something along the lines of "50 Cent is rap, not hip-hop. MF DOOM is hip-hop" I get an incredibly strong urge to roundhouse kick them in the face.

Edit: Maybe DOOM is bad example, considering his fans generally aren't that dumb. Immortal Technique or Aesop Rock would be a better example I guess.

http://yellowmaskcxllective.bandcamp.com/album/black-jungle-radio
http://pizzaposse.bandcamp.com/album/polite-society(props for boomer putting this guy on his youtube, his shit is actually pretty fresh)

illfightyou is just 3 dudes just rapping on some self produced beats, reminds me of early odd future but really good production and catchy ass hooks. some weird ass song structure on some of the tracks too

black jungle squad is just one of jeremiah jae's side projects, laidback flow and interesting beats.

mr. 3 reminds me of action bronson if you're into him, fuckin rappin about bad bitches and pizza bagels
