I'm not sure why I've never thought about it before, especially because I enjoy both genres for the same exact reason; rap and punk rock are parallels. evolving at the same time, with the same underlying message. often intimidating, foul mouth, anti-authoritarian messages from frustrated, disenfranchised youth. evolving under ground and the marketable parts of course creeping up for mass consumption, some becoming undeniably influential to culture at large (the clash, the ramones, NWA, public enemy, etc) and some delving into a complete absurdity and bullshit. and both still alive and well, both in their trumped up, for popular culture forms and in their raw forms on the street, drinking malt liquor, dressing outrageously and screaming "fuck the police".

how incredibly fucking beautiful!

All I get is a "Colbert in 60 seconds" video.
