Rap was only cool when the rap war was going on. The actual music's just ok but the violence was what made it cool back in the day.
Punk's pretty much dead too but theres some good bands still going.
I've found that with both of these genres have an artist who is truly great, people reassign him or her to a different genre -- i.e. "thats too good to be punk - its rock and roll" --this is just my crazy theory.
