Actually the 5th largest (out of 100) genre was inst. jazz, the 6th was classical, the 8th was instrumental, and other large ones included inst. Guitar, Inst. Piano (10th largest), Solo Inst (non guitar/piano), Inst. Celtic, Inst Rock, most of techno was instrumental.
We did have storytelling categories (2), and spoken word, though much of that incorporated music in some way.
Rap is about the beat, the groove, the attitude, the charisma of the performer and fashion and the chorus most of the time these days. Lyrics come after that.
Most people can hum the melodies from most famous and standard songs, but would struggle greatly to get much of the lyric right.
We probably have nearly 20 instrumental or mostly instrumental categories. I'd have to go look and add them up.

"If you are stuck in your musical composing, be unreasonable. Change your environment. If you are stuck in your lyrical efforts, instead of forcing the same old words out, force yourself to do unreasonable things." -Brian Austin Whitney
