This was addressed perfectly by Robert Glasper at a workshop that I attended. To paraphrase, he was talking about current day jazz school students talking about jazz like it's a work of Mozart or Beethoven, to be reproduced perfectly. "Hip-hop musicians are more jazz than jazz musicians today" I wouldn't write off modern jazz though. I truly think that we're experiencing something phenomenal these days. I highly recommend anything by Snarky Puppy. Case in point - ▶ this video

It kind of sounds like you're having a hard time finding good new music. It's out there if you look. Snarky Puppy - Lingus (We Like It Here) ▶ this video Hiatus Kaiyote - By Fire link Alina Engibaryan - We Are link
