Says it all really.
Alright, my honest opinion on the subject is that I agree, rappers have 'talent' but not the same kind of talent that a proper band has.
Stereotypical view points:
'Rock music [Metal/Death/Heavy/Soft/All of em]' - Death, Sex, Media Portrayal, Pain, Love.
'Rap Music' - 'Bitches', guns, drugs, how they grew up in a rough hood... over and over and over, drugs again.
Thats just my opinion on the subject, I don't particularly like rap music, I liked old-school, with the turntables etc, but nowadays I find its a bunch of crapola.
Although the same could be said about rock music, I believe there are more variations when it comes to guitars etc.. you can have people like, Van Halen, or bands like Slipknot.. AAF, etc etc. So when someone says rock music sucks odd's are they just dont like guitars... or they heard slipknot.
You mentioned musicianship, I don't think that rappers are musicians, they have talent but not in a bog standard musical sense. I do believe most vocalists for rock bands have musical talent as they are using different tones, keys in their voice, as apposed to spilling some lyrics [exceptions are made but in general its not just a bunch of screaming and yelling]
Oh and I do like ytcrackers stuff.
