Seriously, Rap is far from music. it is overbearing bass generally synthesized because no Bass guitar can hit the notes that they play, therefore they aren't played by a musical instrument, therefore rap is not "MUSIC"
If you want something that is very low...check out BachBusters or Fresh Aire 3's Tocatta. Some of the greatest musicians in the world played on either of those cd's, and they have some amazing bass.
I think rap artists would be a little more respected if they were at least doing polyrhythms. They're just using rhythms with talking and have a simple rhythm in the background. If they were doing some crazy polyrhythms with two singers plus an underlying rhythm in an odd time signature, I sure would respect them :)
