Saul Williams and Trent Reznor team up to single-handedly destroy rap music.
SilentJ:
I hate feeling like the odd man out here. It happens too much!
Personally, I'm a huge fan of melding of genres, especially those at seemingly opposite ends of the spectrum. Rap and metal/hard rock just work together. Jay-Z/Linkin Park's Collision Course album is proof of this. Even if I wouldn't call Linkin Park metal, or even really hard rock for that matter, that album was fucking brilliant. Even the songs Linkin Park has done by themselves with a rapper over the top (I can't remember the guy's name, but songs like Bleed it Out, Nobody's Listening, etc.) are awesome. The remix of Crank Dat Soulja Boy that Travis Barker just did is also fantastic.
I now feel obligated to check this album out in the hopes that it will appeal to my tastes. Then again, I also have Evanescence on my computer, so what does that really say about me?

I wouldn't speak for anyone else, but to me those statements say "I have awful taste in music."
I'm sure you're a nice person though, and I'm not trying to be a dick, but SRSLY.
To be fair, I love Transvision Vamp, so I'm equally guilty of liking music that some would politely term "dubious".
Meta:
I thought Collision Course was pretty decent, actually.
But, I'm a huge fan of remix albums. Me & This Army, Ratatat's remix albums, Silent Alarm Remixed, Romance Bloody Romance, All Of A Sudden I Miss Everyone(Remixes), and Kicking A Dead Pig come to mind.
Edit: Evanescence = a bag of dicks. :(
Joseph:
None of the other ones you've mentioned include Linkin' Park.
Meta:
Sorry, I liked Reanimation too.
