Best 100 jazz rap releases

Jazz rap, also known as jazz hip-hop, is a subgenre of hip-hop music that incorporates jazz elements into the beats, instrumentals, and overall sound of the music. Jazz rap emerged in the late 1980s and early 1990s and was heavily influenced by the jazz and bebop music of the 1950s and 1960s. Jazz rap artists often use live instruments, such as horns, pianos, and bass, to create a more organic and improvisational sound. The lyrics of jazz rap songs often focus on social and political issues, as well as personal struggles and experiences. Some of the most well-known jazz rap artists include A Tribe Called Quest, De La Soul, and The Roots.
