as for the metal thing... that is the same vibe i get from death grips. they seem like hip hop made for non hip hop listeners
i honestly feel the same way about a lot of white underground hip hop artists.. atmosphere / aesop / sage / el-p / etc... though i'm referring mostly to their material from around 2005-6 back when i was vaguely familiar with them... i can't really comment on anything they've done since then

I see it less as trying to appeal to a certain demographic and more as people trying new things and catching on. I wouldn't point at the shift from ragtime to bebop as a way to make the Jazz of the time more suitable for whichever demographic. It's just the evolution and diversification of the genre, for better (like free jazz in this example) or worse (like smooth jazz).
