The string "Hip Hop/Rap" *is* in there.

It being a binary file, my attempts to just remove it weren't of much success, even with the help of resource editors.

However, there is a much easier solution: replace that string, too, with your desired "Hip-Hop/Rap".

This one's trickier, but I actually tried it out. It should solve your issue.

1) Make sure iTunes is not running
2) Navigate to your iTunes application (just cmd-click the iTunes icon in your Dock)
3) In its contextual menu, choose "Show Package Contents"
4) Navigate to "Contents:Resources:English.lproj"*
*) Assuming we're talking about the English version here.
5) Backup "Localized.rsrc".
6) Open "Localized.rsrc" (the active copy, not the backup) in a text editor.
7) Search for "Hip Hop/Rap". It should only find one occurence. Replace the space with a hyphen.
8) Save.
9) Open iTunes and check if it still happens.

Good luck!
