Every genre does that. I cant think of a genre that doesnt convey emotions... Thats why music is loved by everyone. To say "emo is one of the few genres where people talk about how they feel and can be honest" just isnt true. Emo just tends to be forward about it...

Well, if you take a look at many genres (take radio pop for instance), their "emotion" tends to be quite fake, at least to me. Sometimes rap and country comes across the same way to me as well.

And the emotions I was refering to were more along the lines of deep emotions. More deep than, "Yay, I got a new car, let me write a song about it" or "Oh boy, look at her butt". I just find alot of genres these days seem fake.
