Gangsta vs. Redneck

While looking up subcultures, I came across a website that was comparing gangsters and rednecks. I thought it was interesting because I know a few rednecks from back home.
Some comparisons that they made were these:
-they are immediately identifiable by their distinctive style of music
-they both have a showy culture
-they take pride in their low-income lifestyle
-criticized for sexism and homophobia
-they identify as being persecuted
-attracted to gaudy and tacky things
-attracted to guns and violence
