RE: Hip-Hop & Rap. Is there a Difference? Please Comment.
I didn't realise their is a difference to HipHop and Rap. I did realise what you mentioned about the Rap in the hit charts, the subjects Rapped about. I dont have a personal opinion on the differences between Rap and HipHop. I do know - although not a specialist in HipHop and/or Rap - our Dutch HipHoppers/Rappers are more HipHoppers as per your definition.

Rap itself (or rapping) as a musical art form, is definitely a big part of hip hop. I wanted to clarify that.
I'm not very familiar with the genre; The big names in Netherlands are:
I think they mostly rap in Dutch and I suppose no subtitles :(
