there's crossover in every genre, look up 'Chamber Jazz' but in general I'd say 'no' because jazz is known for improv, right? What do I know? Not much.

Yep, in that sense it's really the opposite of classical music, despite some structural similarities sometimes emerging.

But birdsong is definitely jazz and hip hop is definitely ragtime, though.
