This clue could be a double definition.

'striking' is the first definition.

'legal case?' is the second definition.

(Other definitions for rap that I've seen before include "Criminal charge" , "black music is a > blow" , "taken by those held to blame?" , "Sharp knock; rebuke" , "Type of popular music" .)

I've seen this clue in the Evening Standard.
