RAPCORE
The Nu-Metal Rap Fusion
Dick Porter
Exploring the development and current state of play within the
twenty first century's preeminent sub-genre of heavy rock, Rock Hard defines the origins of the fusion between hip-hop, punk, reggae, and rock, through experimentation to the contemporary mix of styles that constitutes Nu (or Rap) Metal. Rock Hard describes the boundaries and substance of the
genre, and concentrates on the most popular and significant acts of today, such as Slipknot, Limp Bizkit and Kid Rock. Outlining the influences and
attitudes of individual artists, this is a timely snapshot of the current music scene, and provides an insight into the hot new bands storming the charts.
