Knock sharply (3)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

rap

'knock sharply' is the definition.
(I've seen this before)

This is all the clue.

(Other definitions for rap that I've seen before include "black music is a > blow" , "Form of music with chanted rhyming lyrics" , "Rhyming monologue recited to rock music below par" , "Strike; music genre" , "Sharp blow; criticism" .)

I've seen this clue in The Star Tribune, the Newsday.com, The Washington Post, The Telegraph, the LA Times, the L.A. Times Daily and the Universal.
