Eh not really. I like some of the rock with rap in it (Linkin Park has a rapper, I feel like listening to one song should probably tell you that but some may not know that) never really made it to the heights it could have. Obviously the dude from Linkin Park or Fort Minor as some know him isn't a 2 Chainz type of rapper, but multiple good bands use this style of rock/metal with a rap element in there. Linkin Park, Evanescence, Emmure, etc. It really started back from thee Cypress Hill and Beastie Boys days, but anyway long story short they couldn't tune Metallica's guitars and set up their drums in terms of fame, but then again no band in recent memory can. I said A7X came closest, but that was really spitting a band out. None really do at all. Nightmare was HUGE for a while, and then the first two albums they did had a few big tracks like Beast and the Harlot, Afterlife, and Bat Country but they also, like 5FDP, will not have shirts in general clothing stores in 20 years. Really the Red Hot Chili Peppers may have been the closest to that fame, but they are two completely different types of bands, but I guess both leniently fall into the broad "rock" category. :loco:
