Whats The Differnce Between A Mc And A Rapper in your words...

[younghovlucas]

Mc's do it for love...
Rappers Do it for ringtone sales...

Mc's floss when It's time...
Rapper "try" to floss even when cats could care less...

I'll add more later.

 

[seven30]

MC - Delivers A Message, Can Tell A Story, Can Paint A Picture With Words, Can Connect With People On An Emotional Level

Rapper - Good At Rhyming Words Together

 

[joshhassolex]

mc-loves what their doing, loves the culture, respects hip hop, doesn't really care about sales

rapper-always flosses, could care less about the culture, loves money more than music

How am i trying to "kick knowledge of wikipedia"? thats what the word means end of story, but if you want an answer to the question

An Emcee has to be able to move crowd, he has to make a function interesting, and be able to engage the auidience

A rapper is a musician, who uses language to create a message to entertain or inform depending on his/her purpose

Rappers spit rhymes that are mostly illegal.
Emcees spit rhymes to uplift they people.

People who usually say they are 'MC's are lame

I consider G Rap, Biggie and Pun (just to name a few) some of the best MC's ever.

They aren't two different things.

I think of MC's as a sub-category of Rappers.

Not every rapper is an MC though.

I remember in Brown Sugar they couldn't stop sayin MC.
