Sade's track "Sweetest Taboo" has a mad jungle groove going on (just follow the
bossa-like rim shots). The melody, basline, and chords feel almost like a
pre-cursor to the sounds of 4-hero or Roni-Size. I see your point though - jungle
does have a distinct sound different from classic groove but the music is
connected -> hip-hop evolved from the funky groove of urban america, while jungle
extended itself from hip-hop culture.
