Most excellent point, since a lot of rap music is not recorded very well in the studio. For that, IMO there's only one way to go:

My advice . . too many people slam watts by the ton into their cars to get the loudest and biggest bump n' thump, and they almost always end up wasting energy and creating an unbalanced system. You gotta come up with a plan and design tailored for the particular car in mind, then choose your 'weapons'. Name brands are a waste if you don't use them to their proper potential.
In a given reference environment, you can compare subs very easily, and choose which is best. But in a car where there are a multitude of acoustic variables, that comparison literally goes out the window. If you get a woofer with a big ass magnet structure, you already need a hefty amp just to get the damn thing to move, when you can achieve the same dB with a more efficient, lighter woofer. For the most bang for your buck, you gotta consider acoustics and enclosure design
along with power. My $.02
