Yeah. Whatever the term (that name sucks though mayne ) is fine. I know that's some Rolling Stone shiit.

Point of thread is highlighting both rap songs that had a rock sound and actual bands that had a rap/rock vibe in that 1995 - 2005 era...but also in general.

Like I said Rick Rubin produced Def Jam's first hits with LL Cool J and Run DMC, which had hard hitting electric guitar soundscapes, then he went on to produce for the likes of Red Hot Chili Peppers who also had a hip hop beat element in a lot of their music.
