As for successful hip-hop / jazz crossovers, have you heard this one? https://stevelehman.bandcamp.com/album/s-l-b-yone I don't like rap, but I thought this one was very good. 

I haven't but I like Steve Lehman a lot so I will definitely give it a go. Thanks for the recommendation.

No objection to hip hop / rap at all on my side. I think I just don't normally like jazz where the musicians are being required to solo over tight break beats.

That Lehman is fine.

I thought some of Steve Coleman's attempts to marry the genres worked.

Then from the other perspective the use of Jazz elements by the likes of Gang Starr, ATCQ, Digable Planets, Common all worked well for me at the time, during my only real flirtation with hip hop.
