While I absolutely agree that the anglo-american dominance of Rock/Pop is the main reason for there being a lot of it in the charts (even in non-English speaking countries) I think Hip Hop actually goes against this trend. As opposed to the rock bands you mentioned, nearly no one in Germany raps in English, the same seems to be the case in France. Rapping in a foreign language is just unnecessarily complicated.
