Yeah, definitely. Shabazz is kind of a wild card, but you're definitely right.
Also, not to point out the ultra obvious here, but... Beck? I know the guy is pretty much a figure of Bowie/Dylan influence at this point, but some of his b-sides from the Odelay era seem to meet your criteria pretty goddamn precisely.
Also I was thinking, what about the first UNKLE release? The entire album is a mash up of trip hop and rock/pop.
The Grey Album.
I'm trying here, but I just cannot think of many artists in recent years who have done the hip hop+rock thing with any positive results.
