What jazz songs have been used in hip hop songs?

Jazz greatly influenced hip hop artists that we hear on the radio today. For example, Gang Starr's "Manifest" comes out of Dizzy Gillepsie's "A Night in Tunisia". Black Sheep's "The Choice is Yours" used the bass solo from McCoy Tyner's "Expressions".

The linguistics of hip hop have roots in the laments of jazz musicians. Jazz musicians rarely make use of explicit language or mainstream slang from "the ghetto". Jazz musicians used their instruments more to contribute to the melody while hip hop artists use elements of their words such as alliteration to make up the melody.

Very rarely in a hip hop song is there an instrumental solo. Usually the featured rapper has the solo in place of an instrument. P Hop songs however do use jazzy beats to create the framework for their linguistics.

The is much debate about which genre of music is better but in the end they are both music with different approaches to the expression of sound. Source: http://www.npr.org/blogs/ablogsupreme/2010/08/31/129561973/five-jazz-records-for-hip-hop-heads-recommended-by-revive-da-live.

According to Jazz. Com, Herbie Hancock has been touted as one of the first jazz musicians to begin the fusion of jazz and hip-hop. Working together with producer Bill Laswell, the two produced Rockit, one of the first songs to use scratching.In 1991, Miles Davis collaborated with hip-hop producer Easy Mo Bee on the Doo-Bop song for what became the trumpeter's last album.

According to Jared Pauley of Jazz. Com, “Davis injects his cool, muted sound throughout the song, which is orchestrated over a familiar piano riff. € Also in the early 1990’s, MC Guru and DJ Premier reworked Dizzy Gillespie's "A Night in Tunisia" into one of the most memorable songs to come out of New York.

They used a bebop sample along with conscientious metaphor-driven rap over it. Simpson and Wilkinson, worked Herbie Hancock's "Cantaloupe Island" into one of the biggest hits of the '90s. Along with Powell's raps, this song eventually went gold and ended up being one of the strongest selling Blue Note albums ever.

I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
