I think Hip Hop is a culture in general. Well thats how I've always seen it. Hip Hop consists of but aren't limited to the following things:

Emceeing(Rap)
Tagging
B-Boying or breakdancing
Battling
Making Beats

So basically I think the difference between Hip Hop and Rap is Hip Hop is a whole culture in general while rap is a style of music or a distinct part of hip hop if you will. It's like KRS-One(Another great rapper) said:

"Rap is something you do, Hip Hop is something you live."
