suggestions of hip hop artists/groups heavily influenced by jazz?

im looking to discover more hip hop artists/groups that are heavily based on created/samples of jazz tunes.

i guess something along the lines of the work of pete rock, guru, the roots, etc(not sure if those are the best examples, but u know what i mean)

all suggestions will be much appreciated!


ill probably also post this on the OT forums to see what other outside opinions i get from fans that dont go on this board.kidcool189

Both Digable Planets albums.

These two bad boys:

The Low End Theory of course. And also Gang Starr's Step In the Arena and Daily Operation.

Also check some Artifacts.

And doesn't Madlib dabble in the Jazz a lot too?
