You referenced Coldplay and Blink 182 for some reason. The thing is, when we're talking about hip hop , we're not talking about music that is just "laid out and processed" in computers. Hip Hop is music produced entirely electronically, using computers. Its made using samples and synthesizers, just like trance, house, and techno. Hip hop producers use the same kind of software and gear. Its played by DJs in nightclubs....
Now, maybe Hip Hop Culture is not what immediately comes to mind when you think "EDM." I agree that its a different culture for the most part. But you can't deny that hip hop is 100% a form of Electronic Dance Music when you actually think about it unbiasedly for a second. Its culturally very different from the trance scene for example, but it doesn't make it less part of the EDM family.
Back on the topic of Snoop Dogg...type his name into Beatport and see what comes up. The guy is about way more than just hip hop these days, as are so many other big hip hop acts.
For example...
This is an original track he did with house music producer and dj, Ian Carey.
My theory is that hip hop/rap artist are jumping on the "EDM" train cause they see its becoming popular in US. Whats popular = $$$ for them.

Can anyone recommend a hotel? I have a place to stay with family but some of my friends are talking about getting a room now.
Something with decent location and is fairly reasonable?
