ONE could call the bond between rap and rock as sweet love making.
- Or you could call it rape!
It's a fine line as commentators around the globe share their views when the 'greatest rapper alive' Jay Z (pic) took centre stage and covered Oasis's Wonderwall and AC/DC's Back in Black at the Glastonbury Festival recently.
(Glastonbury Festival is the British version of the famous Woodstock)
While the younger hip-hop loving generation thought it as cool, rock fans were left aghast with the rendition - which most say is the worst cover ever.
So can rap and rock co-exist? Or are they just two arrogant genres playing on different levels, catering for two different set of listeners?
As long as it's music to your ears.
