Difference between hip hop and gangsta rap?

Hey,

So, I have a question: How do you tell from a song whether it's hip hop or gangsta rap? I know that rap is a part of hip hop, but I often still can't quite tell which one it belongs to.

Thank you in advance

Gangsta Rap is idR always HipHop, as Rap and HipHop go hand in hand with most artists.

Gangsta Rap describes rather the content, verbal aggressive, offensive, etc.

HipHop can also contain, for example, Sad Rap (Juice WRLD, guccihighwaters, etc.), in the texts it is more about setbacks, depression, etc. You don’t go so “aggressive” to others

Rap is just a part of hip hop, so hip hop is not a direction of music in the sense.

Whether the rap you hear is gangsterrap, you realize that he is hedonizing and glorifying towards violence, drugs, weapons, etc.
