For a lot of people, heavy metal is today's real rock-and-roll, the music of the people. It's basic, it's rude, kids love it, parents hate it. But a closer look reveals how stupid and delusory it is. Metal is not basic--it cultivates a pseudo-virtuosity that negates content. The values it promulgates are foolish and often destructive. Eighty percent of the "people" who like it are male and 98% of them are white.

I'd say that Rap/Hip Hop is a lot closer to being today's rock than metal is, despite metal obviously having roots in rock. Both appeal to restless kids, but hip hop is way more universal than metal will ever be.

There's metal fans all over the world but literally nobody, in say, Brazil knows any American rappers. Hip-hop is too language dependent. If you don't understand the words, it just sounds like some guy talking fast over a beat.

This, metal is the most popular genre across the world, it has strong fanbases in every country for the same bands, whereas, many flash in the pan american popstars don't get any attention in the 3rd world.
