Hey there.
 

My name is Nicholas, I'm only 14 years old but I love music in general.
I am a fan of almost all types of music including; Rap, Hip-Hop, Rock, Jazz, Pop, Dubstep, and some old school rock. I mostly listen to underrated artists as I honestly think they deserve much more credit compared to some of the less talented trash out there, I'm not going to name any of those artists though.. (Nicki Minaj, Lil Wayne)..

Welcome, Meeqs. So who are your favorite artists, then?

It's awesome to see someone who is younger and has an appreciation for good music. Welcome aboard brother!

Rap: Eminem, Dr Dre, Ice Cube, 2 Pac, Notorious B.I.G.

Hip-Hop: Macklemore, Yonas, Logic, Atmosphere, Jay-Z, Ludacris, Ne-Yo.

Rock: 3 Days Grace, All the Right Moves, 3 Doors Down, 30 Seconds to Mars, Downplay (Screamo/Rock), Not Tonight Josephine, Time Will Tell, Throwing Gravity.

Dubstep: Flux Pavillion, Some Skrillex, The Glitch Mob.

Old School: Aerosmith, Black Sabbath, W.A.S.P.

That's about it.

I know I'm a bit late with the reply, but why do you classify "rap" and "Hip hop" into two different groups there? The artists in both groups look like hip hop to me, and rap is just a vocal styling, like singing or screaming, that is used in hip hop and occasionally outside of it.

Just throwing that out there.
