I am looking for music which blends the styles of hip hop and swing.
Preferably, I would like to view music which is available for
purchase. Thank you.
This radical new form/type of music is known as "Swing-Hop".
One of the pioneers in this area is an Artist known as Jimmy Luxury.
His tracks have appeared in movies including "Go", "Ocean's Eleven"
and "Me, Myself and Irene".
He has three albums, two of which are available for purchase from
www.jimmyluxury.com
I personally really dig his music, and I think you will enjoy it.
Do a search for "Jimmy Luxury" or "Swing Hop" on Google, and you'll
come up with a number of sites mentioning him and similar Swing Hop
artists. SeeqPod, “playable” music search » VentureBeat:: Jul 2, 2007 SeeqPod is a music search and recommendation website that indexes uploaded music from around the web and lets you instantly http://venturebeat.com/2007/07/02/seeqpod/HOME |

Why don't you try The Mask soundtrack - I know it sounds weird - but a
lot of old swing was covered on that album by R&B artists - it might
be a start.
Good luck!
