Bill Withers' hit and hiphop beat have more in common than the names of the genres might suggest, matter of fact, one is standing squarely on the shoulders of the older R&B stuff anyway.
Most times, combining the HipHop beat with an older R&B tune falls squarely into the "SmoothJazz" category and this offering does that well, I think, could play on any Smoothjazz FM station and play well IMO.
HipHop beats over older R&B songs might just be the "bread and butter" of the Smoothjazz genre, actually.
Nice job.
