Jazz rap, or jazz hip-hop, is a fusion genre that developed in the late 1980s and early 90s. As the name implies, It fused the beats of hip-hop with the sonic elements of jazz, usually via sampling; though some artists have also incorporated live instrumentation into their tracks.

Today, while no longer seeing the same mainstream success it had in the 1990's, jazz rap remains popular among AlternativeHipHop fans and artists, and still influences mainstream hip-hop music today, as seen in the music of Anderson .Paak and Music/KendrickLamar. An offshoot subgenre, called Lofi Hip-Hop or Chillhop, heavily utilizes jazz samples as well, but is usually instrumental in nature, with an emphasis on a deliberately low-fidelity aesthetic; usually having cassette tape hiss, or the crackle heard on vinyl records mixed in, with downsampled music samples and instruments.

Don't deserve the gong, don't deserve the praise\\
The tranquility will make you unball your fist\\
For we put Hip Hop on a brand new twist\\
A brand new twist with a whole heap of mystic\\
So low-key that you probably missed it\\
And yet it's so loud that it stands in the crowd\\
When the guy takes the beat, they bowed."''

Although jazz and hip-hop artists often have had a contentious relationship at best, especially during hip-hop's early years, jazz is [[https://www.cbc.ca/music/read/the-convergence-of-jazz-and-hip-hop-from-louis-armstrong-to-kendrick-lamar-1.5057102 regularly cited]] as one of, if not ''the'' biggest influence on hip-hop; to the point where some call jazz "[[https://thekidshouldseethis.com/post/jazz-is-the-mother-of-hip-hop the mother of hip-hop]]". Poets like Music/GilScottHeron and The Last Poets are often considered the progenitors of hip-hop in general, performing rhyming poetry over jazzy backing tracks; but jazz rap as a genre didn't truly come into its own until the late '80s.
While it's unclear who had the first real jazz rap record, the Jungle Brothers' debut 1988 LP ''Straight Out the Jungle'', Stetsasonic's "Talkin' All That Jazz" and Music/GangStarr's "Words I Manifest", both released in 1989, are considered the [[Main/GenrePopularizer popularizers]] of the sound. The genre would become a staple among Afrocentric emcees of the time, especially among the Native Tongues collective (Music/ATribeCalledQuest, Music/QueenLatifah, Music/DeLaSoul, etc.). While the mainstream west coast rap scene had largely shunned jazz rap in favor of GangstaRap, the alternative scene thrived in it, particularly Music/DelThaFunkeeHomosapien and his Hieroglyphics crew, the Los Angeles-based Freestyle Fellowship, and the Native Tongues-adjacent [[Music/ThePharcyde Pharcyde]].
Within time, jazz artists begun participating on jazz rap albums, helping to both legitimize the sound, and bridge the gap between jazz and hip-hop. Legendary trumpeter and jazz experimenter Music/MilesDavis recorded ''Music/DooBop'' in 1991 (released posthumously in 1992) with Easy Mo Bee, who'd later go on to produce for Music/TheNotoriousBIG. Gang Starr member Guru would release the first volume of his jazz/rap album series called ''Jazzmatazz'' in 1993, incorporating both sampling and live instrumentation provided by legendary jazz musicians like Donald Byrd and Lonnie Liston Smith, and jazz vocals from N'Dea Davenport, Carleen Anderson, Jay Kay of Music/{{Jamiroquai}}, and several others; and jazz bassist Ron Carter would assist in the production of A Tribe Called Quest's acclaimed ''Music/TheLowEndTheory'', playing double bass on the track "Words from the Abstract".
