However, I have found myself listening to Gym Class Heroes and Lupe Fiasco and found it rather catchy. I'd recommend them.
Oh, and Linkin Park is a brilliant combination of the two genres. I love them.
PP, it sounds to me that your listening to the wrong people when it comes to this genre. That's why you shouldn't judge something that obviously have more than one side to it.

I also prefer to just chill and listen to Tupac or some Biggie, and maybe tunes from the past. For comic relief, I'd laugh at one of Will Smith's tracks--Summertime.

As far you hazzard, I tell you like it is. Linkin' Park is a good mixture, but is for the most part punk rock. Sorry, but if I was looking for some all out Rap and Hip hop, I wouldn't go to them. And today's Gangster Rap sucks. I mean, There is a few out the pack this cool, but most sucks. The late 80s to mid 90s is THE best.
