A person who feels there is a difference between rap and hip-hop believing rap is defined as ghetto music for thugs who love b'tches, hoes, and excessive jewerly. At a hip-hop event one can be spotted by the REI or Jansport backpack worn with one too many support straps, khaki's, adidas or pumas, a hoodie, headphones and hat of some sort.
Everytime I go to a Common concert I see mostly backpackers.

Backpacker - slang
The common widely believed definition of the term is usually a person who performs the act of backpacking, or a traveler. However, the correct definition refers to a person who has to pack his / her travel bag every single, fucking morning.
Person 1: Fuck man, I have to pack my bag every single morning
Person 2: Guess you’re a backpacker
Person 3: Me too!
Backpacker
An irresponsible and careless person or persons who cannot look after themselves properly so travel with a "backpack" (typically a rucksack) to avoid coming to terms with their flawed lives. They use travelling as an excuse to not take responsibility for their actions and wrong doings, from interpersonal relationships, to the general mess and untidiness they leave behind them in their wake when travelling from town to town. The typical backpacker has a hard time surviving in the real world because they are too busy thinking about themselves to really do anything. They boost their egos by posing for photos and videos to make false realities on social media because they feel like the whole world is watching them. They are incapable of washing their own dishes.
The backpackers got angry because there was no free WiFi.
The backpacker took a selfie, again.
The backpacker was rude because they weren't given a discount.

A Backpacker has NOTHING to do with an over obsessive love for the Hip-Hop label Definitive Jux nor are they in any way associated with Hipsters. A Backpacker is just a person who think Rap and Hip-Hop are two different genres. Thinking Rap is about self indulgent wanna be gangstas with a need to show of their shopping list and contribute nothing to the music industry but their idiotic "thug life" ideals. They put all forms of support into Hip-Hop and just love good music in general.
They also love all/participate in all/most sub-cultures of Hip-Hop including the main five elements: Emceeing, DeeJaying (Turntabilism), Graffiti, B-Boying (Breakdancing), and Beatboxing.
And a Backpacker has nothing to do with a persons skin color. Its ignorance like that that belittles the social advances of the last 30 years. Stop listening to your racist redneck father.
Hip-Hop head conscious of the corrupt Rap world = Backpacker
Backpacker
Backpackers are a very loose subculture of travelers who carry all their stuff with them in a backpack. Typically they are driven by a sense of adventure, and as such are always trying to find somewhere beautiful, completely off the beaten track. They often travel as cheaply as they can to maximise the time they can spend on the road, accepting squalid accommodation or sharing rooms if it will save them any money. Most are in their twenties or early thirties, and almost all are between 18 and 40 though older and younger people aren't unheard-of. People go backpacking for all sorts of reasons but will almost always take offense if it is implied that they are 'on holiday'; backpackers typically consider travel a separate, more serious engagement, all about broadening the mind, experiencing other cultures and trying to satisfy what is often a deep-seated and more often than not insatiable wanderlust.
Backpackers tend to be highly inclusive for a variety of reasons.
Firstly, there tends to be a recognition that everyone is different. Backpackers are often driven to travel because they place a high value on difference and diversity. They live and let live.
Secondly, backpacking often sees you arriving in a strange city, alone or with few companions and possibly little or no grasp of the language. This forces you to be friendly with everyone; maybe you need a traveling companion, or at least someone to hang out with for a while. A friendly face who speaks your language is never unwelcome.
Because they are so inclusive backpackers tend to hang out in groups. The lingua-franca tends to be English, but groups may consist of UK, Americans, Europeans, Israelis, Japanese, Australians, Kiwis, Russians... Backpacking is a truly international identity.
Backpackers, being potentially highly exposed to threats associated with being far from home, in an unfamiliar and possibly unstable country with only complete strangers for company, tend to live by an unspoken, unwritten code. They live and let live, look out for each other, show and teach each other respect for local customs, do not steal from each other and are generally very open and non-judgmental. They will always pass on tips and share traveling stories though they will seldom give you the right name of a particularly great place they are telling you about because they just don't want too many people to go there and spoil it.
With every scene comes a bunch of posers who are too cool for school, often completely unadventurous travelers, who don't give a shit about the locals or anyone else, and invariably end up making idiots of themselves. These people ('bucketheads' in parts of Asia) are not considered backpackers by the rest of the subculture, just morons who take up guesthouse rooms and ultimately contribute to the creeping spread of tourism-development that creates places like Phuket which have nothing to do with the local culture, only the local mafia and pink, sunburned expat enclaves.
Backpackers often associate themselves with other subcultures, typically ravers, new-agers, neo-hippies and the like. There is no specific backpacker music, but a walk up and down Khao San Rd, the infamous backpacker ghetto of Bangkok, will involve drum n bass, psytrance, breakbeat, jimi hendrix, bob dylan, hip-hop, trip-hop, reggae and whatever happens to be popular in the west at the time. Drugs are not uncommon; smoking ganja or at least acceptance of ganja is pretty much universal.
The Beach is a book / film about backpackers in Thailand, before it became a cliche place to travel.
