Like Rage Against the Machine and the Beastie Boys, both of which are asskickingly awesome.

Unfortunately, I feel that because Rage and the Beastie Boys are so individual and unique, there aren't many other similar bands out there. *tear*

  1. Fort Minor, Linkin Park, Gorillaz, maybe even Sublime

    Insane Clown Posse if you like the twisted stuff :P


  2. Styles of Beyond

    Linkin Park

  3. I like Saliva, especially Ladies & Gentlemen.  

  4. Red Hot Chili Peppers...in the words of Chris Rock, "they started this whole rock-rap thing!"

    edit: ggallin, get your facts straight, you are wrong about at least 3 things:

    1) I mentioned RHCP first.

    2) Their name has one 'l' in chili, not two.

    3) Their last 3 albums are far from 'lame,' and imo and those of many other Peppers fans, the band are actually now at their musical and creative peak, and the last 3 albums since Frusciante rejoined the band are classics, and up there with BSSM.

    edit: sorry dude, i see you corrected your mistake. and ofc you're welcome to ur opinion, BSSM does rule but I think their later albums are class as well.

  5. God, I can't believe that nobody has yet mentioned the RED HOT CHILLI PEPPERS!!!!  Their early stuff was heavy on rap/funk/rock.  In fact, I'd say they were the closest thing to RATM, musically.  Check out Blood Sugar s*x Magic - it's awesome!  Their later stuff is much more lame :(  

    Haha!  Somebody's just mentioned them!.....

    Oh, yeah, check out ASIAN DUB FOUNDATION - Rap/Punk!  Just like RATM!!

  6. The Roots greatest hip-hop band around.

  7. I can't believe no one has mentioned Mindless Self Indulgence yet.  They are awesome

  8. try Brokencyde - they mix scream-o and rap usually cover songs

    or

    3OH!3 - they do really good rock/rap songs... my fav. is "I'm not your bofriend, baby" its really catchy.

    --------------------------------------...

    to add on I love Linkin Park but everyone has thier choices

  9. You are right...there aren't any bands that are similar to Rage because they are so unique and awesome.  Many have tried but failed.  Try the Loud Rocks CD compilation...it has some really great collaborations between some sweet rock bands and famous rappers.

    not really rap but close

  11. linkin park
