There were a few that did this, like Guru, The Roots, then of course if we would talk about sampling DJ Premier used to be really creative with Gang Starr, Tribe called quest or De La Soul were very recognizable.

Then you have a lot of jazzy guys experimenting with hip hop like the Buckshot LeFonque project (Brandford Marsalis and DJ Premier), some Courtney Pine stuff, I guess even Herbie Hancock did a couple hybrid collaborations on one of his newer records.
