People classify things because it's helpful when you're discussing them. When you say "jazz", for example, it at least gives someone a starting point from which you can further describe what you're talking about. If we didn't have this kind of shorthand we'd be wasting all our time simply explaining what an artist sounds like before we could even begin saying anything of interest about them.
I don't see any reason that this would impact an artist's creativity or freedom. It's just a helpful tool in discussion.
